University of Hawaii Proximity to Home Grade

Summary: When playing as the University of Hawaii in dynasty mode, any prospect outside of Hawaii is rated as a "F" proximity to home grade.  However, if you play as a California school, like USC, prospects from the state of Hawaii have a B+ proximity to home grade for USC.  This should be the same grade going each direction, and when playing as University of Hawaii in dynasty mode, the proximity to home grade should be scaled like every other school based on the proximity of recruiting areas to your school.

Current Behavior: When playing as the University of Hawaii in dynasty mode, any prospect outside of Hawaii is rated as a F proximity to home grade.

Expected Behavior: When playing as University of Hawaii in dynasty mode, the proximity to home grade should be scaled like every other school based on the proximity of recruiting areas to your school, with a suggested mapping of those grades below.

Suggested mapping:
Below is a sourced list of other schools and their proximity to home grade for prospects from Hawaii to use as a baseline as to how Hawaii should be rated for proximity to home relative to different recruiting areas.

I started a dynasty with each of these other schools and looked for prospects from Hawaii with a proximity to home dealbreaker and logged the grade the prospect had relative to the school.  Results below.

Recruiting Area = Grade (Source School)

Hawaii = A+ (Hawaii)
Southern California = B+ (USC)
Northern California = A (Stanford)
Oregon = B- (Oregon)
Washington = C (Washington)
Arizona = C+ (Arizona State)
Nevada = B (UNLV)
Idaho = C+ (Boise State)
Utah = C+ (Utah)
New Mexico = C- (New Mexico)
Colorado = D+ (Colorado)
Wyoming = D+ (Wyoming)
Southwest Texas = D+ (UTEP)
North Texas = F (SMU)
East Texas = F (Houston)

Don't have a school to test with in these states, but suggested based on states around it
Alaska = C
Montana = D

All other states = F

  • This was a thing last year too but never realized proximity to home is not distance based or like # of states away because why would Washington have a lower grade than Nevada, Utah and Idaho and Oregon lower than Nevada. Got me wondering what the formula is for that now.
