Frustrated with dynasty
I’m fine with many aspects of the game including gameplay but I can’t keep playing dynasty. I keep losing recruits because I can’t have them visit even though I’m in their top five! I’m also frustr...

Dude summed it up perfectly. Only thing I will add is my typical timeline. Below is how I approach pretty much every recruit. I usually don’t scout them until I get a few people committed, I use those point to dm players or search social media. At the end of the season, when I have a full or near full hour bank, I’ll go out and look for recommended prospects with my school in their top 3/5/8, or players from my state, and scout them to try and find green diamonds. Just landed eight 5-stars and eleven 4-stars this cycle using this method.
1) scholarship
2) send the house (+ contact friends and family or dm player)
3) schedule visit
4) hard pitch
In my 3rd season, I had easily 10+ recruits that I could not bring in for a visit even though I was in their top 5. It was a minor issue in my first two seasons but it really became a problem in my 3rd season.
Update: finished my 3rd season and was not offered a job after the CFB playoffs ended. I should not be at a G5 school. Also my prestige dropped again for no reason.
- @Sgoforth5 I normally don’t get any offers after the CFB playoff either, assuming jobs are mostly filled by then even IRL. I’m saying you can accept a job in Bowl Week 1 and the new job will start after the season ends. You can finish your current season with your current team, literally saw my roommate do this yesterday.
- @VOLSROCK1429 Thank you. I’ll put in another season and hope for a better offer next year. Still hope they fix the recruit visit issue.
Honestly I would just take a job before the playoffs next season. Not getting to finish it out with your current team sucks and should be a no brainer addition (along with about 50 other things) but it’s probably more realistic the other way, if that’s something you care about.
But 3 straight (or 4 now?) bowl appearances is impressive for a G5 school. What school did you start at? You ever thought about giving them a chance in a P5 conference after the consistent success?

Yeah man, throw them in the ACC or something. If a lower level school did that in real life they would’ve been invited to a bigger conference by now, they’d no doubt be bringing in an enough revenue to justify it.
If the visit option is locked out try removing the player from your board and readding him right away.. This works for me 9/10 times.
- @Timberwolvesx I can confirm as a Boise State fan that, alas, this doesn't happen in real life for all of us.
Fair, but it’s also in Boise, Idaho. There is one major conference out there. If this current conference madness was going on back when Boise was a top 25 regular, I think it would’ve happened.
Got a question about commitments, been looking for the answer all over and can’t find anything.
i haven’t figured out the correlation between when two (or more) teams tie in the same week on a commit. What’s the tiebreaker? Seems like im always on the losing end of these and don’t know why. Some clarification would be appreciated.
