Offers/Recruiting Bug?

[Loudtek]

There seems to be a issue with some players never getting offers. Multiple times I have seen 4 star and top 500 recruits week 10, with their only offer coming from me. Not sure if fixed already.

There are some times when schools don't have enough spots for certain positions... there are also scenarios where low prestige schools don't recruit super high star players even if they have no offers. It's a bit difficult to manage since we don't want lower schools wasting points on players they normally wouldn't be able to get. And in some cases the 4 star players won't commit anyway...

I'm seeing 5* in week 8-10 with no offers ... that should never happen ....

It all depends on how the league universe has progressed... in a lot of cases schools hit positional maxes and won't recruit guys... especially limited positions like FB. To change this behavior you could raise the positional maxes for those positions so teams can sign more of them (or more players in general).

I understand and thanks for explaining however in real life this would never happen.

We intentionally spread out commits during the season so that it keeps everyone engaged all season long, and gives teams times to jump in and out of the recruiting mix as the season progresses. Typically top 300 kids will sign much quicker if they are being heavily recruited by a preferred school, but otherwise they take their time in making a decision.
