dev traits really don't mean much ... i've had a normal dev OT go from 67 to 88 OVR his Junior year and my star Heisman candidate RB with Elite dev only went from an 88 to 92. they're literally pointless and off season training / upgrades are entirely RNG

Love seeing the offseason! Experienced this my first year as well. Tried to fill my class with 3 stars and ended up cutting players I didn’t want to cause I couldn’t cut those new recruits. Aiming for 20ish recruits going forward and being more selective on 3 stars. Keeping track of # of seniors now too.

A lot of comments about the scouting…. I think for the sake of the story Max is telling with his coach is that “We get better by learning from our mistakes” was basically this first season. I think it’s natural that you want to progress your coach to use less resources to gain more info because honestly on some money ball shit your coach has figured out how to generate new interest in ball st by min/max player interests. Now that we interest has grown we are allowed to be picky.

I've had wild success landing impact and star dev players using the My School Grades (Playing Time) exploit. Lots of 3⭐ players with mid 70s OVR. It takes a lot of time to set your board up and double check but it's worth it if you don't want to waste hours every week scouting.

Solid video. You can go to the scout page on recruits and see DEV traits after they sign. Also may have shown traits. It's difficult to see the entire team. I'm looking for an easy spreadsheet or list to make at home for easy reference. Something for me to determine the number of recruits to sign.

FYI your info on LOLB and nickel package was a bit off. There’s a separate line item in the depth chart for nickel/dime LB’s called SubLB. Players have different ratings in that versus the normal depth chart. So not as cut and dry and just the LOLB not playing. Love the content!

It sucks when you're doing position changes that it doesn't show their upcoming training upgrades. I've balanced out my oline like you do and then after training its all out of whack again.. Also, I always check all of my linebackers and DE's for position changes. So often a guy will jump up in their ratings just from moving from LOLB to ROLB or LE to RE.

There are a couple schools of thought on recruiting, but looking purely at attributes isn't what I'm doing. Its really a combination of attributes, dev traits, skill cap, and abilities (from rip). The ideal recruit has high attributes, Impact or better dev trait, low to no skill caps, and gold+ abilities (before hitting campus). While having higher stars on your team matters, WHO you develop/start is highly dependent on the above. I.E. I have a 3 star gem ATH in the pipe. He has really high stats in throw power, 91 speed, 91 accel. Just about all the other stats are above 75. He also has TWO bronze tier abilities. That's crazy right? So how is he a 3 star? Its likely he is already at or close to is skill cap and/or his Dev trait is Normal. This guy (likely) is a day 1 starter for me next season, but if what I predict is true, he won't develop much more than where he already is. Sometimes its better to start/redshirt a guy with a lower floor versus a low ceiling. This also goes into who I'm recruiting. When building a trash program, I don't see the logic in not scouting people that fit what you want to do. I'm a power running ball control offense and attack style defense. Even as a 1 win team(Kent St.) in 2023, I am in the midst of landing 4-4star gems, that all fit my system & need, and didn't waste time on spamming out scholarships to everyone until I landed/in the lead, with the real targets for that year. Also at end of year, I would start with eliminating anyone that doesn't have you #1, then start with the transfer portal first, as those star ratings are 100% accurate (and require no scouting), then fill in any roster gaps with prospects.

1) you can sort incoming frosh athletes out by position and honestly it's pretty common they have a higher overall elsewhere from their default position. 2) at this point I basically decide my roster and cuts based upon dev trait and skill caps, I rarely look at overall because after 1-2 seasons of development and PT the high dev trait guys always end up way higher. 3) since I found out you can't cut incoming freshman I've become much more selective with recruiting and I scout a lot more. Basically trying to find 15-20 gems per class so that I don't end up forcing our previous high dev trait guys who still have another 1-2 years to go. Gems >>>>>

@@maxplayscfb yup on signing day is sadly the easiest way to find them. Otherwise during the off-season recruiting phase I go through and list in a doc all of my guys with "normal" dev or find other guys who are maybe "impact" who are 2nd or 3rd year guys who haven't developed much or are skill capped out, and I list them as "cut candidates" I prefer to stack my roster with as many star/elite dev guys as possible and give them at least 2 seasons to see how they develop. This process is tedious, the UI does us no favors but it's worth doing the work during the off-season phase so it's really easy once you get to "encourage transfers" because there's no helpful info in that phase. I'm finding my magic number of HS recruits to be about 15ish and about 4-5 transfers if there's ones who can be immediate starters.

Am I wrong in thinking that using 15 hours is actually better than 25? They both give you a total of 3 influence. On my current dynasty I’ve upgraded my recruiting so that 5 hrs is 2 influence, 10 hrs is 3 influence and 25 is 4 influence so in that case 15 is straight up better than 25 hrs. Am I missing something? Is there more than just the influence? Have you done any test on 15 vs 25?

JUCO players are not higher overall like they were in NCAA14 fyi. I feel like they should be? Since there’s no 4/5 star JUCOs, you’ll never find a JUCO over like 70 overall. I feel like there should be a separate window for JUCOs like there is for Transfers. Great players should be rare, but JUCOs are very common and essential for smaller programs.

At the end of the season, it appeared you were allotting 15 hours to guys whom you were already 1st and the only offer they had. Not worth even giving them hours because unless another school jumps in, you've already got them. Note: I see later you mentioned leaving hours on those guys because they were not in their top 8 yet. Imo, still not worth allotting them those hours. Better to prioritize your hours to areas of need (even though it seems you're just going for volume).
