If you know two of the 3 the hard sell always aligns with two of the interest if there is only one combination then that’s his other interest. If you schedule a visit and do not know any interest if player has a deal breaker that is always guaranteed an interest!
Another tip is in week 3 or 4 start recruiting 4 stars with no offers. They can have 0 interest and you will jump to number 1 on their board. I get so many good players targeting guys that bigger schools didn’t offer
The early weeks should be spent focusing on players that have interest in your school. Once you weed out the ones tha have esrly interest you start going after the ones that nobody is recruiting yet@godawgs123
@@godawgs123you can do it in week 1 but that’s the ncaa 14 Strat cause if they have picked their top 10 by week 4 they’re free pickings as a 4 star. Week 1 someone can still jump on them but I haven’t seen it too much
With the absence of Formation Subs (a Feature from the 2000s that allowed you to recruit each Position in a Belichick-like multidimensional fashion... i.e: a 2nd or 3rd-string Receiving TE for Formations like the Shotgun if you want your 1st-string TE to be focused as a mauling Blocker), I feel like Recruiting in CF25 forces me to go pretty one-dimensional at each Position (elusive RBs, fast WRs, etc). It's a pretty big bummer since, personally, Formation Subs superbly deepened my Recruiting strategy about 20 years ago. Pretty wild how such a Roster Management Feature like it is just missing 20 years into the future.
@dsuly125 my brother and I are starting one this weekend, we're both old school, but he's older lol, he doesn't take advantage of RUclips too learn so he's screwed too haha!
Have anybody ever experienced where you have multiple players about to commit any week. It is close to the finish line halfway through the season. And then next week when you fast forward, your progress has been pushed back to halfway on all of them??
I’m doing a dynasty with Arkansa St and I’ve got a decent year 1 recruiting class 4 4 star recruits and 5 3 star recruits with a bunch of 2 star gems and 1 star recruits to fill out the roster luckily I’ve got a decent starting rb and qb that are both sophomore or junior with 3 senior WRs that are all going to leave
So question once you know all 3 pitches and you hard sell them. Do you still need to keep recruiting points on that player? If so at that point what do you keep them on since you know the pitch and yoi have already hard sold them but not yet committed.
I would keep points if it’s close. If the lead is big u can kind of slow down. Or you can keep goin g harder get them to commit faster then use those hours somewhere else
Also my last tip scout for needs by position with the highest interest in your team instead of going down that long ass list. That way you can see all the hb wr cb or whatever that has the highest interest all together so that you can choose the one that best fit your team and style to offer a scholarship to.
I got an insta commit in the offseason last night and it scared me lol. I jumped back out of my chair because I didnt think you could do it without the ability from CEO
@@LonghornsLegend I’m in year 5 coming off 4 straight cfp appearances as a 4.5 star team now and I guess it happens when you’re their number 1 team with a high pipeline. I know in ceo they have an ability which can be purchased but you need to win 2 rings before having a chance to unlock that
This video did literally nothing to explain “how to recruit gems and get instant commits”, bro said scout the players you want and send them scholarships. No shit my dude
Buddy, I'm convinced you guys don't actually play the game and just complain on RUclips Year one at Akron (a literal 1-star school), and I'm about to be in double digits with commits from 4-star recruits Yeah, I'll probably redshirt a couple and they won't play next season, but as long as you aren't actively trying to compete with the Georgia's & Ohio State's of the world it's not that hard to get quality talent to come to your school The lowest prestige school in dynasty can bring in at minimum 6 4-star prospects, a bunch of 3-stars, and have a top 40 if not top 30 recruiting class by the end of the first season
High int should be the first thing you target. I got 9 commits yesterday in my 32 user Dynasty with Michigan lol. I hope they don't think I'm cheating. Also get after those guys as soon as possible so that you can schedule your visits as soon as possible. I'd rather get a 3 star gym immediately than wait for a 5 star to sign in week 11. We need bodies.😢
As a smaller program building up yes. But after I won 10+ games a few years at SMU and have stronger pipelines I target the elite plauers early regardless of interest. I win a lot of battles I was outside the top 8 on for five stars. Plus it's worth it because you can tell very early who you don't have a shot at, and there will still be 4* and 3* gems available and interested well into the season that you can land without a struggle. I don't mind keeping my classes under 20 to get the best players. If I can land two five star OL early, I'll easily fill in the other 2-3 with high interest guys later. Same for everything else.
*Use this cheat* Set up your initial board with the recruits you want, keep the board small though. I only do 5 stars & 4 stars that have my school 1st in interest level. After that I create a save file, Now scout the players & figure out who the busts are. Once that is done, back out of dynasty & load up your save file. Now remove the busts & offer scholarships to the remaining players. You can also scout the remaining players again to identify the gems on your board. Now that you've advanced to the regular season, you can spend the hours on influence. With a small enough board you can max out hours on all your recruits. Rinse and repeat throughout the season & this will give you the best chance at getting the players you really want. I'm finishing up year 3 with the Cincinnati Bearcats. In the first year, I had the 11th best class, year 2 was 5th best & currently in year 3, I have the #1 class. This final class has 8 five stars & 12 four stars.
@dabbymcnasty4264 doesn't bother me. The first year I did it legit & lost out on the majority of players I really wanted. After that I developed this method, I still lose out on some guys, but still land a lot of recruits I want. If people are watching videos like this, they are trying to figure a way to get better at recruiting. This method is your best route. If you want to do it legit, why watch video's on how to recruit? It's not like recruiting in a college game is something new.
Bro recruiting isn't that difficult to have to cheese the system. I get it's your game so do whatever makes you happy but this method isn't even fun to me

Bigger schools have more hours depending on that school’s star rating, UF is originally a 3 and a half rating I believe but in my dynasty I rebuilt UF as well and we’re a 5 star program and I have more hours. So the more you build them up the more hours you’ll have
Idk my guy with a high dev trait increased by like 12 overall when I read short him. 75 wr to 87 in one off-season the other receivers weren’t even close
Hey guys! I set up my depth chart by the squad depth I thought was best, primarily by highest overalls per position. However when I play games, some players are starting or getting a lot of playing time that are not top in their position in the depth chart. For example, there is a freshman LE that plays nearly every snap in game at DT, however, when I look at the depth chart that player is not even in my top 10 at DT position. No matter what I am doing there are players playing and players not playing, that do not reflect my custom depth chart. how may this be fixed The depth chart and changes I make to it in the hub screen, before games, is accurately reflected to my in game depth chart, however, it does not translate to the actual game time and rotation that happens Basically it says my depth is what I've set it at, but it chooses different players to play I different positions that I have not assigned. Like, I have freshman LE that consistently is getting reps at DT over a 88 overall DT??? In my depth chart, in the hub and in game, the LE is wayyyy down on the roster yet still gets his reps over the better plays out of position
Yes they decommit without telling you why and commit elsewhere. It may because your rating for their dealbreaker has dropped below the threshold but I haven’t proved the theory right yet
Good video, I was already doing all this yet I can't recruit 5-star players at all and barely any 4-stars as the Gators, the AI will suddenly snatch the players out of nowhere, even though I have a perfect pitch.
That's what I'm saying except I'm using CSU lol. Nonetheless I'll have them almost peaked then last minute another team like Wyoming even will take their commitment
You probably already have the max amount of hours used on the player. If u look in the middle corner of the screen on the recruiting tab of the player it shows how many hours you can use on them
That number can be glitched to have 0/60 when u have 60/60 allocated. Also check on the prospect list you do your scrolling on for the true number as I’ve never seen that one wrong
if the player is originally a 3 star than you scout him and it shows the red x, he is actually a 2 star and doesn’t play as good as a 3 and the green gem means if he was a 3 he plays like a 4 star.
Sad the best part of tgis game is not actually playing it because gameplay is so trash. Most creators just make videos that have nothing to do with gameplay.

Use the SWAY feature to get him interested in other things that overlap then you can HARD and SOFT sell at the same time.
Really ? Will they still like the original 3 sells/pitches
@@DSTRAZ98yeah it just adds more interests to the player, so instead of 3 they can have 4 or more
Facts and you can use two soft sells at once if u get at least 4 green checks this can help if you don't have enough for a hard + soft sell
If you do the dm the player + talk to friends and family + search social media it gives you more than sending the house and costs 10 less hours
Green triangles have been shown to not mean total influence. I’m not sure why this is
This was debunked.
You learn something new everyday, I had no clue you could remove the actions. I made the mistake early on of sending the house at everybody.
