Recruiting Idea for 27’

Recruiting: We need dealbreakers that are less ridiculous. For example...I usually just play offense only, so I have no control over what my defense does, but I'll lose linebackers because their dealbreaker is based on how many tackles they get. For receivers, it's based on how many receptions receivers get, so if I'm not getting at least 20 catches per game for just WRs, the dealbreaker will fall, and I'll lose the recruit. It's kinda ridiculous. The dealbreakers make sense to have, but they either need to have their thresholds lowered or they need to add multiple options per recruit...

For example: If a receiver has multiple dealbreakers (or maybe not call them "dealbreakers" but rather "motivations")...If he has multiple motivations, let's say 3 of them...

1. Team Receptions (Not just WR receptions)
2. Team Receiving Yards
3. Team Receiving Touchdowns

Then you could take those and weigh them or use percentages. Let's say it's 33.3% per, unless we can find a 4th to add to round it out to 25%. They could make a motivation gauge for each player, and that gauge could go up or down, based on how much of each of those motivations your team is getting. This way, you could still get a recruit if you have a lot of yards and touchdowns, but don’t throw the ball 50 times per game. 

Another thing...They need to have coach prestige grades for each coaching position. It's so frustrating that you can win 3 championships in a row and somehow have a B- coach prestige in recruiting. Sorry, but I'll NEVER feel like that makes sense. The coaching positions need to have a breakdown similar to what I said above, but it should be like 80/10/10 (HC/OC/DC) or something like that. When recruits and media talked about Alabama when Saban was there, they didn't say..."Well, his offensive coordinator was hired elsewhere, so he's not all that prestigious anymore." It's stupid and very shortsighted.
