tommyboy Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 I'm using Ole Miss, and after 5 years of playing I noticed I have only 1 SEC player on my roster. 90% of the roster is from OH and the rest are from MI & other northern states. Although I do allow the AI to recruit most weeks, I have the Cole scouting service and my focus is on the SEC talent. What could I be doing wrong here? Thanks- Tommy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrestlerjrh Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 how do you just let the computer sim out recruiting? to me that is a huge part of the game building a team by trying to get your type of players into the program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You hit the nail on the head in your second sentence: "to me." I enjoy PLAYING the game. "To me", that is the best part. If I have a large block of time, I do handle the recruiting, but mostly I don't have the time. Now, back to the question. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfpack Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 I had the same issue playing as Ole Miss. No matter where I put my money, the only place I could consistantly get recruits was other areas than mine. I asked about it a long time ago, see [URL="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9415"]http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9415[/URL] As you can see, it never was resolved, so I just moved on to a new school after about 3 more seasons of trying to recruit someone...anyone worth being on my squad....from the SE. I'll have to switch back and see if I still have the same issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmfyxpp Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Chappy, I think you nailed it. Ole Miss is in Oxford, MS. Miami (OH) is in Oxford, OH. I'll bet the game thinks Ole Miss is in Oxford, OH. Has anyone noticed a similar problem with UGA (Athens, GA) and Ohio University (Athens, OH)?

Arlie Rahn Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 I checked the stock DB and Ole Miss is based in University, MS - so the state should be right. I will look into this though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommyboy Posted October 13, 2006 Author Share Posted October 13, 2006 Just for the record, I have nothing against the boys from OH or anyone else in the MidWest. I'd just like to have some good 'ol country boys down here @ Oxford to help us build a contender. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were you working on a Medical degree? ;-) I use students from Ole Miss for D-Now leaders every year, and they always give me an "Oxford, Ms" address. That's why the "University, Ms" threw me off.
