I’ll answer more questions in the comments as well. I can’t leave y’all stranded in recruiting
What is the best week to schedule visits for recruits?
Where is team builder at
What is the best playbook to use, looking for an air raid that has the reverse flea flicker in the gun y trips offset wk formation
@@Lemonprodzzcome out on 18/19
How do I change the playing style ? It says need let’s say b- and I have c
I've found the best way to find overlooked recruits in the middle of the season is to just look at the far right column of the prospect list and pick guys that don't have any scholarship offers, where it says N(0)
Been doing this after i get the guys i want, stole 2 4 stars doing that
@@Soupy_basscan’t steal something nobody wants 😂
@@Soupy_bass it's this year's version of low lock cheese.
Also means you should just focus on 8-15 players in the first few weeks and then fill the rest of your class with 3-4 stars with no offers, similar to what bordeaux does here when he filters by "open" stage.
@@Sudomarkii tru but mtsu will take everyone we can get baby
Went 12-1 as the OC at usf n took the Maryland HC job right after the cfp lol
One thing this game NEEDS is a thing where it shows if you scouted someone or not on prospect list. I hate when I’m going through the list and re-add someone I already scouted and they sucked
This was happening big to be last night. Or tag them as unwanted or something
@@Thecultofwrestling I’ve resorted to just leaving them in my target list. I know I don’t want them though cause every prospect I wanna recruit I offer a scholarship so if I don’t have one offered to them I know they’re trash
If they have a red gem you can see that, at least
It does
I want to be able to reorder my prospect list by stars haha doing it manual is annoying
What I’ve found to work best (I’ve done 2 recruiting classes) load up on 10-12 guys you really want and go all in and get them committed asap. Then as players commit add other guys that still have open recruitment and no offers as you get guys committed. Then use the portal to get whatever else you need at the end or you can’t hit the high school guys heavy instead at that time. Signed a top 40 class with Troy my 1st season and top 25 my 2nd season. I did have recruiter archetype
Also if you’re a small school don’t scout 4 or 5 star players because even a 4 star bust is good for your team
I didn’t figure this out til like my 3rd run thru of a recruiting season
This is kinda what I’ve done. Two seasons in with Louisiana and I’ve had #29 and #21 classes
@@evancramer77no u can recruit 4 and 5 stars, i was pick coastal carolina and was 1st on a 5 star qb but i lost him last week. I still ended up with 3 of the 5 4 stars i was recruiting, the problem is it limits your depth chart and i only got 8 players the recruiting year
@@parkerboys1779 I said don’t scout them, you can recruit them tho. Scouting them is a waste of points
Who else constantly backs out of the recruiting board?
Yeah that is very annoying 😂😂
The menus are the worst
Took me literally a month to finally adjust and I still do it from time to time
10mins in and I’m seeing I trashed my first class already lol
If it makes you feel better my first recruiting class I only got 5 recruits 😭😭 got blue balled by everyone n was 2nd place with all my recruits
Same bro
i had 3 recruits committed in my first class by the time I got to the transfer portal and late signing, ended up signing 19 total. Had 16 3 stars and 3 2 stars at Marshall. I just offered everyone
@@armaansohi4829same,but only pulled 3😁💀
Same here bro 😅 But year two is a whole new us baby! Lol
As someone who lost a 4 star TE at the LAST second I can confirm the visits need to be early. I had mine late. Arizona had it early and they passed me at the last second to steal the recruit.
I lost a TE with pretty much a full bar because another TE signed with me. Which is very realistic and I oddly appreciated it.
Same here
@thefmsrinder6324 it also let's you know who's higher rated
@@zacharyrogers1071how
@@thefmsrinder6324 yeah I also signed a wr when I didn’t need one and then one of the wrs already on my team started thinking about transferring
Scout your 3 stars in the preseason, find the gems, and remove the rest, get 8-10 gems on the board and send the house. Once you have their deal breakers, hard sell, dm them, bring them on a visit. Some will commit early, find another gem, or focus on needs. Fill the gaps in your roster during the following off season and from the portal, I’ve got Georgia Southern in the playoffs, competing. The BIG12 by focusing on gems that can wait a year or two to develop. A trick with the big time recruits is to focus solely on pipeline, cast a wide net in the first off season, choose one or two who aren’t highly recruited, then go to town
A lot of people don’t pay attention enough to when the hard sell shows up, it’s infinitely better than sending the house.
I got Georgia southern too in the sec went 13-3 first year and my team went to 3star prestige I also got total 6 5stars from season 1 and to combine , I’m doing portal now but I can say recruiting is fun and really easy if you know how to put your team together
@@jamesdobbins7312 You really can’t just set it and forget it like people talked about pre release, if you’re diligent, it’ll definitely pay off way more.
Does removing send the house hurt ur influence when u switch to hard sell?
@@mol2758no, as long as you have the 3 green checks or can guess the last one you need, hard sell gives you more influence most of the time. It depends on what letter grade your selling points are that he’s interested in
My biggest gripe with recruiting is I wish we had the old search for recruits system back it was much easier to see what needs and how many you needed to fill your roster properly.
I liked knowing some kind of info about the recruits prior to scouting
You just need to hit the right stick, it shows how many of each position you need and the total number of players you need to sign
i check the needs section but by the end of recruiting, i end up with 10 cornerbacks and no DT lmao
@@Cole-hx4ci Problem being, right stick clears out any filters you currently have forcing you to repeat the process every time you check.
@@yoda9256 then cut some of the corners and go after dt’s?
My 3 star running back recruit went from 64 overall to 78 in the span of a year. Starting recruits that are close overall to your starters are essential people.
Progression jumps are insane, especially if you and your coordinators go down the motivator path
@@BordeauxYT yeah!
I’m not convinced this doesn’t happen anyway though. I had a 5th string receiver that got no catches jump from a 69 to an 80 in year 2 and I’m wondering if I should’ve redshirted him so I could have actually had him at his full potential a full 4 years
I started a dynasty with a 2 star prestige team as a recruiting coach. I found it important to only target around a dozen players at a time for the positions I need most for my play style. I didn’t do much scouting at first, but found that later on when bigger name schools put their name in the hat that there was something more to these players. I also tailored my schedule so that I could get some exposure by beating some higher ranked teams. I beat a Top 25 team by 3 points and it helped a lot when it came time to schedule visits and to get closer to a commitment. If I saw some players leave me at the bottom or off their list although I sent the house, I’d take them off my board and find a replacement ASAP. It all worked out perfectly. Spend your coaching points on the top positions you want to secure first also, if you’re a recruiting coach. That plus having a winning season will make your Transfer Portal signings much easier. I can’t wait to see how far I can take this team
As an Aussie who has never watched or played any previous ncaa game before, I knew nothing about recruiting or anything, this video was so helpful, such a great walkthrough, cheers mate
Damn I wouldn't think NCAA would be recognized in Aussieland ngl, I guess it isn't too dissimilar from Rugby which is pretty big down there, learn something new everyday
@@SuperRavensfan101 ye, they played 2 college games here about 6 years ago. Rice vs Stanford was one of them. Was so cool to see 2 college teams go at it in Australia.
I love the fact I don’t have to every single week add the actions they carry over the weeks makes it more enjoyable
If you messed up your first class like me, don’t fret. I haven’t tested the strat, but I feel like year two is when recruiting really starts kicking in:
Pick your rebuild school and have a solid season, do your best to pull decent recruits. Make sure you put all 4 points in the positions you want to focus so you gain more starting interest next season. Draw from the transfer portal after your success to make up for failed recruiting. I’m planning on maxing out as much of the recruiting tree as possible and relying on my coordinators for everything else
I went with tactician and come to find out both my OC and DC are as well, recruiting this first year has been tough so far but enjoyable.
You definitely helped me understand what the Sway function does. I thought it was just another way to pitch directly. Also you showed the importance of setting everything up on week 0 and week 1 and that you should only both scouting in week 0 and focus your points on strictly influencing a recruit. Had to learn that part after like 2 seasons.
I did this with Bowling Green and had BG from 77 to 84 in 2 season under Bordoux recruiting strategy. I also focused on the motivator skill tree after the first season to improve the off-season training results. Then, I focused on the recruiting skill tree to help boost during recruitment battles.
Thank you, Bordeaux, for helping. I support your channel for a year and love your work.
Wait you can change the skill tree?
Taught me a lot, I didn’t realize you got scholarships back if you take a recruit off your board, and I didn’t know that the recruiting actions carry over week to week!
Yeah same 🤦
Wow, I did not know you could take off send the house and get hours back for the hard sell. I was having to pick and choose how and when to use them. Damn, I was making things way more harder for myself lol
Exactly
This is fire!! Used this 2 seasons already and got Top 15 classes each time with Kennesaw State!
Can you tell me a summary. I wasn’t paying attention, I have a short attention span lol.
@@5STARGAVsend the house on everyone, and switch to hard sell once they’re in your top 5. Don’t bother scouring 4/5 stars. If you’re a small school they will help if they’re a bust or not. Scout the 3 stars in the preseason. Remove the busts and ones you don’t like. Send scholarships to everyone on your boards in the preseason.
As a Mexican that loves football but doesn’t understand much about CFB and still bought the game this is really helpful!!
This isn't helpful if you want a real life build. He spams 1 star schools but unnaturally goes after 4 star prospects. It doesn't happen in real life. He's cheesing the system massively, and it's a disservice to alot of players who watch him play this game. A real 1 star program will most likely never touch a 4 star player. 1 star programs usually only get 1 to maybe a lower 3 star recruit.
@@chazrooks4681 I didn’t asked you bro so shut up
@@chazrooks4681Bros the fun police 😭😭
@@Sports.tierlists Fr lol bet he has many friends to play with
@@chazrooks4681it’s a game lol 😂 dude is helping people that are having trouble recruiting. If you don’t need the help and this isn’t your style, move on man, no need to bash someone who’s just trying to help others. You have to remember that a lot of the new players haven’t even played CFB because it’s been 10 years since last game
Week 1/2 - Send the House
Week 3 - Find 3 interest - Hard Sell
Week 4 - Send visits / and use Sway if you need ideal pitch
Week 5 - Make sure to DM every week on prospects who are pursed by others / send out visits / see if your sway prospects worked
Week 6 - Maintain every prospect make sure hours are spent wisely / Add others on board if you don't have 35 targeted - In your pipeline
Week 7 - Make sure pitches are lining up well / If no schools are going after prospects send the house on them
Week 8 - If others school pursuing prospects get rid of them
Week 9 - Get to the Top 5's / keep finding players as you sign
Week 10 - Check prospects overview
Week 11 - Not really much
Week 12 - Unlock 3 interests / maintain consistency
Week 13 - Guess hard pitch
Week 14 - Make sure hard pitch is sent out to prospects / Get to offseason recruiting find prospects who are on "open" - offer them scholarships
Off season - Whoever has a lot of influence get them to visit instantly / Send the house and or hard sell their interested
Off season - Take off send the house and go for hard sell and figure out what the prospect likes
Off season - Hard sell and use hours / schedule visits
Off season - Take off send the house on any prospects and hard sell
Very helpful. I got killed in recruiting my first season as Michigan. I was just sending the house and leaving it.
My fav thing to do is schedule a high start school that sucks (auburn, South Carolina, etc) then put all my visits for that week for major boosts
Starting with a 1 star school and making them rise to greatness is the only way to play dynasty
I decided to rebuild Arkansas state(I didn’t even realize they existed)
I’d say rebuilding your school as long as it’s not a playoff team is the number 1. Like I’m a Kentucky fan and we’ve historically been terrible at football so for me to even make the playoffs would be a success for me.
@@gamemasteroffun UK is so fun to play with. BVG plays way above his overall and Barion Brown is a cheat code. Dane Key is really good too.
Been having a blast with coastal Carolina. I’d never really done the recruiting thing in ANY game before so learning it has been a blast. I can also feel when I had a bad recruiting class or when I didn’t get a good QB or something lol. My BEST QB prospect ended up being a ridiculous HB who carried my team for a season to a conference championship and a bowl game 😂
Im rebuilding usc and our defense feels like a 1 star school 😂
You’re the goat, so happy for the channels progress. You earned it 🙏
You should also sway to your highest grades. Since your already have proximity to home it should be easy to sway with that one and something else or maybe 2 that you have at A or B. Then hard sell will work so much better bc you’re high grades are aligned with their interests
Sir, you are doing the football lord's work, your sacrifice of sleep this past launch week to bring us the strats doesn't go unnoticed and is appreciated. Wishing you some rest after these few weeks and that ea runs you a reasonable check 🤞🏾
Instead of just keeping send the house on the Top 5 list. Do soft sells if you know one of their interests. Players with deal breakers are the easiest to find out an interest. I found that that’s the fastest to figure out the interests. And 3 soft sells or a hard sell and a soft sell is way better than just a hard sell. Sway can work on players to get two really good soft sells for 40 hours (6-12 points) vs a hard sell and a soft sell for 60 hours (8-12 points)
Speaking of ways to make recruiting faster, I’d like to be able to clear all previous actions
And apply bulk actions. E.g. send the house for 7 prospects at once.
Using Boise State. Finishing the regular season 12-0, I recruited very well. Ranked 19th in the nation on the first season.
Nice any tips
Did you end up in New Mexico Bowl or the Playoff? I’m worried about being stuck in the New a Mexico Bowl at Colorado State lol
Man I’m using them too but I had put them and Notre Dame in the big 12 and played on Heisman I went 7-5. I won the pop tart bowl.😂
@@bigboy6593 it’s the grind
@@joshmiles5235if you’re undefeated as long as you win the conference you should make the playoff
HIGHLY HIGHLY appreciate this!! Nobody else speaks like this on their "recruiting tips" videos. Love the work and keep up the GREAT work! :)
Started with Hawaii and well if you’re looking for a challenge this is it.
Obviously a lot of dealbreakers due to ‘Proximity to home’, but there’s a glitch in the game that makes it that all recruits give it a F grade, even the ones from the state of Hawaii….
What are your pipelines with Hawaii? Hawaii and California?
@@danielgant1879that shouldn’t matter for proximity to home
@@danielgant1879 got a couple weird ones, CA and HI are 2 indeed, i think the others are Tx and 1 or 2 others but not sure which would have to check… CA is also silver the rest is bronze so not even that helpful
It makes it hard, but the challenge is also part of the fun and rewarding to get good classes
The top 8 stage is important . I used Marshall and I was recruiting 4 stars easily . Almost got a few 5 stars but I didn’t even start putting points on them until like week 4 . It’s important any player who has you first on the interest add them to the board first too ex ( 5 stars first 4 stars next highest int 3rd and then 3 stars and under ) if you have interested ppl they’ll possibly commit as soon as you offer a scholarship that way you can sign prospects early and focus your points on those higher recruits early
For everyone wondering about team builder it drops July 19th
Whats different from Dynasty and tram builder.
@@dewanewelch1744it just gives you access to create your own school if im correct.
@@dewanewelch1744team builder lets you create a school that isn’t in the game and use it for Dynasty
@@dewanewelch1744it lets you make a custom team like say North Dakota state if you wanted
@@dewanewelch1744team builder is just teams the community makes. You can use them in your dynasty.
Nice video! Couple things I'll add, sorting the top players by interest level. Get every player you can with you in there top 5 teams and you have a great shot at landing those recruits. Another one is after a few weeks in the season lookup top players with no scholarship offers, offer them and send the house and you're immediately the top team on their list.
“Too deep in that defensive tackle, can’t pull out now.” Lol
I started as defensive coordinator tactician, for Louisville I struggled my first year recruiting finished the end of the season was 80 and after off season we finished 58 . Year 2 about the same was 77 at season end and 52 after off season,
Year 3 was almost horrible I was 108 season end, but was able to get 56 off season. Year 4 was 80 season end and finally hit my best class after off season at 34, then I left for Tulane HC job and finished about same as when I was Louisville coordinator, we was 93 then 52
My first season as a HC finished 10-2 and a bowl win I stayed year 2 at Tulane and went undefeated conference championship and made playoffs we lost in the first play off game to Georgia in a shootout 38-35 and I packed my bags for Texas , my first recruiting class at Blue blood Texas was 25 , after 1 season at Texas and winning 9 game's I actually left for my Alma matter Louisville I'm in my first year there it's week 3 and I'm working the phone and trying to get some 4-star and 5 stars I believe that we are 87 across the board on overall too. Recruiting is good but it's tougher than the old game's I'm taking any advice I can reason I'm on here watching you
4:23 “Wow, pause” 😂
Really cool to see USF represented. Season ticket holder for their first 11 seasons. Being from St Pete, I'll probably do a rebuild myself.
GO BULLS 🤘🏼
That UK jacket crispy
Out of all of the recruiting vids I’ve seen, this is probably the most efficient and most well balanced when it comes to pursuing and when to move on. Great vid thank you.
Not me taking notes on a sticky note at work
Dude preach!!! I took your method and am absolutely killing recruiting. Went from low 40’s last season to number 1
Thanks man, I didnt know yoi could remove actions and I was wondering why it said I had no hours when I had more than enough in the top right, didnt know each player also has a max, oh man.. thanks!!
The spray and pray approach is good for filling your roster initially, but you do wanna start uncovering and targeting gems year 2-3 so you don't end up with a dearth of stars.
I just got Caleb downs from transfer and the #9 overall recruiting class😮💨 my first year in dynasty 😭 go gators 🐊 also got the #1 DT and SS from the portal imo the portal is easier than regular recruiting
Fakeeeee
@@Ace2Trill lmao tf I need to lie for it’s a video game I got proof tho if u care that much lol
Caleb Downs entered the transfer portal in my dynasty amd went to NC State, so it's definitely possible he got him to go to Florida
@@SpidaMonkE92 definitely is possible because I got him lol thought it would be no way I could get him but I did and hes about to help us win a 🏆 😭😮💨
But it’s Florida. Try that with a 2 star school. You flexing with a comment like that is laughable
3:55 Pat Mama 😭😭
I am thoroughly appreciating this video. Thanks so much for sticking with the absolute basics. I haven't finished it up yet but it has already been extremely helpful. The game tells you way to little.
So using hawaii would not be the move bc the game doesnt give many high star recruits from hawaii
And there’s a bug with Hawaii right now where proximity at home is an F for prospects that are from Hawaii
Can confirm, Hawaii is tough but I like the challenge
Tried the same format with Wisconsin (Year 3 after winning a title in year 2) and got the #2 recruiting class. Obviously having a 4/5 star program, you don’t have to worry as much about deal breakers.
46:10 all the Top Four lost their first game after their byes.
That happened in my first season too, wild
just a tip if you go to the menu scroll all the way to the bottom and go to "players not fully scouted" or "player in need of scholarship" you can offer all of them alot easier and scout them alot easier because when you offer/scout a player it automatically goes to the next player
Please rebuild Michigan state bro!!!!!!😭🙏
Strongly agree
Yessss
THIS.
MMG did NOT have us covered 😭
Yes
Great video, I started a dynasty with ECU and it took like 3 yrs to get to the CFB playoffs. I kept changing the recruiting every week. After watching your video I realize that was not the best thing to do. I'm going to start a new dynasty using your recommendations. Great video!
Is it possible to get someone when your not even in there top 10 to start?
In my one year with UNT that was a no. Even with a pipeline I’d miss the top 5 cut.
i think its possible just INSANELY hard and youll need alot of luck. but im not 100% sure
yes, you just add them to your board and send the house instantly. If nobody else is going after them, or schools aren't pushing hard, you'll make the cut before their top 8
@@BordeauxYT thanks menu merchant
Amazing video my friend! Thank you so much for taking the time to break this down, I did my first dynasty last night (using UNR - 2 star) and my recruiting class wasn't close to this good. Keep up the great content!
I needed this video🤣
Bro makes w basketball vids and is also cooking on CFB
Please rebuild Nevada 🙏! They suck and are a 2 star school and need to beat UNLV after losing to them twice in a row. Pretty sure this is the 5th comment asking for this 🙏
been saying this for a few weeks now, thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼
What has worked for me as a 1 star school.
Step 1: Go to Recruit List Sort by State and interest, Scout every 4 Star that's at the top of the list i usually do about 20 4 stars 15 3 stars
Step 2: give all scholarships and scout 3 stars and remove broken gems
Step 3: sim the week
Step 4 go back to your list send the house and DM the player 60 total points on your top 6 must have 4 star players that are in top 3 interest
Step 5: Sim Week
Step 6: check your list and see if you can schedule a visit. If you can, do it immediately. (the reason is to learn the prospects interests)
Step 7: once visit is scheduled check and see if you have Hard Sell and make sure you have atleast 2 of the check marks unlocked (once you do it enough you know what the 3rd one is if its greyed out and you go off the block combos)
Step 8 wait for your 4 stars to all accept your scholarship and by week 6 you should have roughly four 4 star players.
Step 9: go back to list and any players from before that have a top 3 interest send the house and repeat the above steps.
Step 10: In 2-3 years dominate.
Also dont forget to Redshirt your freshman's that arent starting!
Hope this helps anyone!
Can you rebuild Missouri sometime
The recruiting process in Dynasty mode is very detailed and has A LOT of Easter Eggs
One thing overlooked was when you are adding players who are still open that you can pursue, under the "offer" on the far right you can see the number of schools pursuing them. So if you see any N(0) you know at least that week you can be the only one targeting them.
Thanks bordeaux. I bombed my first year and just retired. I'm rebuilding San Diego State and was able to get a ranked 28 ovr recruiting class
Thank you for this video!! Went from recruiting 13 recruits with Texas, to recruiting 32 3 star plus players with coastal Carolina.
I know you were getting dragged on Reddit about the monotone. Man this video is like a whole new you. Great video!
You just taught me something huge, I was sending the house on the main recruits I wanted and just leaving that there. I didn’t know you can just take it off and then pitch them to seal the recruit. Lost a lot of recruits last minute because I was full on hours. Thank you
I was landing top 30 and top 25 recruiting classes everytime. I watched this video for 15 minutes and landed my first top 5 recruiting class landed four 5 stars!! Thank you Bordeaux
So I changed my whole recruiting approach as I was struggling and losing recruits every year. I did your approach in this video and had my biggest class yet and had the number 10 class in the nation with Stanford. Thanks mannn!!
Already brought buffalos overall up 12 through 2 or 3 years of recruiting cant wait to use these tips to secure the MAC and hopefully a playoff appearance.
This was so unbelievably helpful. Alot of what u said and showed brought back the riding the bike reflexes I had from all other editions of college football, plus good tricks for the make the pitch and visit schedules! Amazing!(now if I can just figure out the gameplay part of it, I’ll really enjoy this lol-I have a good grasp on what sliders I’m gonna try, though!)
Recruiting is sort of backwards compared to ncaa 14 at least that’s what I’ve noticed in my 48 hours of gameplay. You’re going to want to aggressively go after 4 and 5 stars early, you won’t have a handful of them to scoop up in the final weeks of the season like you could in ncaa 14.
This is basically what I do already but when I started with UCONN I only had level 1 pipelines at most and 350 recruiting hours. It was a long grind but we are entering the semi-finals in the playoffs in 2031 with 2 Nattys, conference championships in the SBC, ACC, B1G, and SEC, a back to back Heisman winner RB, and championship pedigree 🔥💪🏼 this game is so good lol
I kept on spreading myself thin each season. Didn’t know I should focus on 8 recruits at once. Thank you so much! I’m already into year 4 but hopefully this vid will turn it around!
I’ve watched a lot of videos on this topic and yours is one of the best!!!! Thanks for the help and please keep feeding us content like this with updates if you learn more
Something I noticed is if you’re a school in a big state like Florida then you’re more likely to get more 4 stars because of how many their are in the big states. If you’re in a really small state like Maryland you have a much higher chance of maybe getting 2 or 3 5 stars because there isn’t much competition so if you find a small state player who cares about proximity to home then you have a good chance to get him.
This was a very helpful video. I went from the worst recruitment class to back to back number one ranked recruiting classes
I started with Kansas as the OC and by the end of the season I was ranked 43rd in the nation in recruiting which was where Kansas finished last year so it’s pretty accurate I’d say..haven’t got to the portal yet but it won’t matter I took the HC job at ECU.
I didn't realize other people were still playing NCAA 14 like I was (I am very rarely on youtube :/ ), this is a great channel, I really appreciate the insight on these new mechanics.
This was very helpful Bordeaux I find that finding players that have not been offered towards the end of the season is a snag
George Pitts is a BEAST in my dynasty… looks like the recruiting classes are pre made not auto generated
You’re the goat for this video! I signed so many 4 stars at ECU my first year because of this video and I started doing what you said in like week 5 and still got a ton! Team up to a 84 over year 2! Thanks for putting in the hours sir!
When you have two green checks you can usually find the hard sell that matches those two and a question mark. Rarely there is a pitch that covers both green checks and another question mark. The more red X’s you have the easier it is to know what the 3rd missing check mark is
In the recruiting board you can sort by not fully scouted and need scholarship, and spam the A button to give scholarships and to scout faster with out exiting and going back and in forth. It’ll automatically move to the next prospect after completing each task
Wow this is helpful. You just helped me learn that you can remove recruiting actions when you don't want them on anymore. I was wondering why i NEVER had any recruiting hours left LOL
I followed these methods and pulled the 12th best class with Purdue. 15 four star players and 19, 3 star players. This helped a ton, thanks!
This 100% works. i didnt know how great it would be but i was at 31. Then in the transfer portal i signe 2 4 stars and multiple 3 stars. Seriously dont put too much into anybody but really good 3-5 stars until somewhere around mid season. And if theyre looking toward the bigger schools like he said drop them. I took 1 star FAU to 3 stars in one season. Scout offer and send the house are your friends and monitor every week. 10/10 Bordeaux
I'm using Louisiana Tech 11-1 in my first year as Head Coach made the New Orleans bowl. #1 ranked rushing defensive in the country. Running Back 35 TD 2,350 rushing yards. Got a 4 star safety committed but that's about it. I lost to bigger schools in recruiting
Thanks for this video. I did my first year. I got like four people didn’t understand why I didn’t get more. You answered a lot of questions. Thank you.
man after the way my recruiting started i’m GLAD you dropped this video thank you 🐐
You’re such a stud bro. clutch content. Can’t wait to see the Oregon State University Beavers rebuild
It's really in-depth but once you know what your doing it's not too difficult.
Limit your board to 10 or so recruits at a time. Put max amount of time into stars. Put at least 25 into the lower tier. After week 5-6 you should have commits already. I usually let the computer take over recruiting after this. You can do whatever you want, but this works good for me.
Great breakdown on recruiting. I was getting in the 50-60 range for recruiting class with a 1 star school. This will hopefully help propel me into the top 40 and up.
Thanks for the help, I implemented your advice in week 8ish and still managed to place top 30 classes (playing as NIU)
I’ve noticed for some players that Send the house has more arrows than the hard sell, even with all 3 of their interests unlocked, is that just bc some of their interests are low for my school? For some recruits the hard pitch shows 5 arrows but for some it’s 4, so is it better to just keep the Send the House on those recruits?
Bro saved me. Im a madden nut and never played NCAA. Now I love it but suck at recruiting and this video is perfect.
Send the house should only be used 1 week only when you are going after a player when you aren’t on their board and you have no pipelines. Much more value with dm and family. You learn traits and as soon as they push to top 5 switch to soft sell and schedule visit asap(if you way out in front dont bother with visit). Should have 1/2 interest unlocked at this time. will be 2 options once you know the 2 interests. Soft sell and family give much more value even if you hit 2/3. Next week do hard sell and dm and you pretty much lock players. Really need to pay attention to pace they are signing. Juggle time week to week. Send the house really just speeds up the signing process going from top 8 to 5 to 3 and stresses your points. Hard and soft sell are your most influence. Soft sell and sway can work really well too but that can make for too much thinking/time. Main thing is only go after 10-15 at a time. Start with maybe 15-20. Also stack your visits with complimentary players huge boosts.
Extending schollie earlier gives huge interest boosts as well. Can be the difference you need to land 4/5 stars as small programs.
This video was so helpful! I didn’t know you could remove send the house and basically exchange it to hard sell once in the top 5. I’ve missed on so many 4 and 5 stars because recruiting is so hard to figure out
