just signed a 4 star WR that is 6'7 and has 99 speed and 98 acceleration.

The Fly Route is wonderful. He's in the top 5 for the heisman after 2 games as he has over 300 yards receiving, 3 TD's, and 300 PR yards, and 3 TD's there.

Carlos Brown is #1 on the heisman because of the previous year as he had 1500 yards rushing, 22 TD's, then about 450 yards receiving and 4 TD's along with 1 PR TD. So far this season, he has about 300 yards rushing and 7 TD's.

Thank you for the help.. I will try it... Do you ever do the quick call or do you actually call them cuz I do try that but usually on mine when they say very high and most they are usually locked in and I cant do that anymore....

Now I know why your not getting recruits. When the lock symbol appears that means you've unlocked the pitch. You can still use that pitch over and over again when you call recruits. Thats all ur doing wrong man. Once you unlock the very high and most pitches keep using them over again every week in your calls and I GAURANTEE you start to land the recruits you want!

THank you so much... I will try that.. I just couldnt believe that recruiting was that hard when I only got like 5 recuits and I had to have a walk on fill my MLB position... THanks again I will try it..

How did you do so well at recruiting??? I have been trying and so far the best I have gotten is 1 5 star and 2 4 star and alot of kids going other places in the end.... Any tips would be appreciated...

Just try to find the pitches that the prospects like. Most and very high are the ones you want. Once you find which pitches they like make calls to them every week and use these pitches. Also make sure the prospects that you really want the most are ranked the highest on your recruiting board. Try to target 5 star kids in Michigan and the other pipeline states because these are the guys that will be most likely to commit. If you take the time between games to make calls and do the things above you will do a lot better!!

Anyone else found the return game to be rediculously easy? I've returned more kicks in '09 than I have in all the other versions combined. Maybe is just McGuffie........

Sorry, I am a loyal PC gamer here. I know that the FPS are muchbetter, plus they have programs avalible for YEARS such as Ventrillo,and Team Speak. I can talk with my buddies online in game, or off fromaround the world for free. Plus the industry (EA and DICE inparticular) have openly said that they have "dumb downed" FPS such asthe Battle Field Series for Console Players, leaving a LOT less detailas far as player capability and such. I will stick with my PC, and ifI EVER get a console, it will be for the sole purpose of NCAAfootball. I think the Madden Series is HORRIBLE especially whencompared to the "bought out" 2K (ESPN) Football. I believe '06 is thefurthest they went until EA bought them out. A MUCH better product. Thats my two cents!

Man, just played against ND and won 51-20 and McGuffie had the game of his life.

1 reception, 17 yards, 1 TD
13 carries, 112 yards, 1 TD
64 yard kick return (dragged down at the 23
30 yard kick return
45 yard punt return (dragged down at opponents 30)
and another like 30 yard punt return

Guy is a monster. Brown had like 89 yards on 22 carries and 2 TD's.

I have Minor starting with Brown getting some carries. McGuffie is my punt returner and kick returner with Michael Shaw. ( I thought I would let the freshmen have some fun) McGuffie won the Ret. of the year award and an All American.

I only played the major games. And like I said about the recruiting...I AM A BEAST.

14 *****
5****

#1 ranked T, FS, MLB, RB, WR, DE, G

#2 ranked G, T, FS, RB, WR, OLB,

#3 ranked QB (Scrambler)

And the other 5 were top ten **** at their positions.

I thought recruiting was very easy if you put the time into it.

Thanks for the input! With the Xbox 360 price drop coupled with Final Fantasy XIII being released on it, I am 99% I will be purchasing that within the next month or so.

Oh yea... Once again, my dynasty is way short of people, need more people who play often (like daily) and can compete at the game.

Gamertag (on Xbox) is "Maize N Blue 45", send me a friend request and let me know what team you want. A B10 or ACC team would be wisest if you want to play against other people and not just the computer all the time.

Ok I haven't owned NCAA Football since Larry Fitzgerald was on the cover, which I think was 2005, but I've gone too long without playing it. I do not own a video game console at the moment and I can't decide which one to purchase. I'm leaning towards an Xbox, mainly because I enjoy their online capabilities. The 3 or 4 times I've Halo have been really fun too. The only advantages I see to a PS3 at this point are the Bluray player since they seem to have won the format war, I'm more used to the PS controller because I owned a PS2 at one point, and I actually get into the Final Fantasy games quite a bit. I'm not real sure why because I don't like anything else similar to or associated with those games. No matter which system I get, I will play the NCAA series 80% of the time anyway. Based on the above, which console do you suggest I take the hardest look at? Getting both is not an option as I will also be purchasing an HDTV "accessory".

First off, let me tell you that I own an Xbox 360, so take my advice as you wish.

I have had the "3 rings of death" happen to my Xbox 360 before, and Microsoft is only a pain if you have opened the thing up (like taken the casing off so you can see the actual hardware), which nobody really ever does, and they have fixed most of the bugs by now. If it does happen everyone is covered for 3 years, you don't have to pay a penny, not even for shipping if something does happen.
Xbox Live is much better than the PS3 online network. Although you have to pay for it there are many more people to interact with through voice, and when you buy the xbox you get a headset, so talking trash makes it that much more awesome.
Gears of War and the Halo series should be enough of a case alone for the Xbox 360. GOW 2 is coming out late this year I believe, and if you like shooters you will be drooling.
Final Fantasy XIII is going on Xbox 360, and so is the new Resident Evil game, so you can make the case that Playstation is losing the battle of games that sell for one console. Gears of War and Halo are probably the two best single-console games anyway.
Xbox stuff is generally cheaper.

That's my two cents.

Idk just stupid stuff like that bothers me man. Maybe I should make the game next year! The only problem would be that I'd probably make all the UM players 99's and the OSU players 59's

Has anbody noticed on replays that when you throw a pass the ball does not spiral? The ball just stays still while it goes through the air. Stuff like that bothers me like the players on the sidelines having white shoes on. It's stupid!

Maybe you should make the next game. I'm sure it'll be perfect then. Come on, seriously, You're upset over ****e shoes on the sideline players and the ball not spiralling on replays? What next, the clouds don't move in the proper direction for AA?
