Mizzou follows up recruiting the #2 SS last year (Marshall Jones 79 OVR) with recruiting the #1 SS this year in Charlie McNeil 81 OVR. McNeil (#1 SS, #21 OVR) is a fast/powerful tackler who can knock the snot out of WRs. He will likely start as a Freshman in some capacity. This gives Mizzou another great SS to play the 425 with. Mizzou also recieved news that Jermaine Weber (5*) has also committed to Mizzou. Weber is the #6 ATH (77 OVR) in this years class and will likely line up at CB for the Tigers. Although he could make appearances at RB or WR. If he plays CB, look for him to be a INT magnet with 76 cth ratings.
Kitchen Sink 3 is what it's all about. Once you get that you can pretty much have anyone you want (and damned near every one that you want, which is a huge distinction). It's so overpowered that in my offline I only allow myself to get kitchen sink 2. To keep my recruiting balanced I only allow level 2 of kitchen sink, royal treatment, opener, closer, letter of intent, and insta commit (if I ever get that high. On slowest progression I'm only level 24 after 15 seasons and I also spread my points between recruiting and game management to keep things level too). Of course in here, where everyone's gonna get the best recruiting stuff I'm all about kitchen sink 3 (unquestionably the best coach skill in the entire game), royal treatment 3, opener 3 (I don't need closer 3 since I'll almost always sign at least half of my class before week 8) letter of intent 3, and if this OD ever makes it far enough, insta commit 3.
Thanks for posting I didnt know that. Ill will use them there next time I get a point. We are just getting so far behind player wise its scary. We havent landed a decent offensive lineman in 3 seasons and its not for lack of trying.
Some positions are simply more difficult to sign than others in this game (mainly because the CPU goes really hard after them). In my offline I'm at Michigan now and we're 6* with tons of A+ pitches. But, because I only allow Kitchen Sink 2 I still struggle hard at getting OL guys. Most other positions are fine, but the CPU super schools always go hard after OL guys. With KS3 they're obviously easier to sign, but they're still the toughest.
Another week, another studly signing for the Bears. White joins #3 CB Little to provide the Bears with 2 future lockdown corners. He has great speed and good cover skills. Most importantly he has excellent zone coverage skills which'll come in handy the the zone heavy Bears defense.
Week 9 saw 3 more ESPNU150 signings for the Bears. Colbert is the #1 OLB in the country and the dude is a stud. This year's class was excellent in OLB depth as it had at least 4 absolute BEASTS at OLB. Colbert is one of them with tremendous speed to go with very decent tackling and coverage skills. Carlson is the 2nd HB signed by the Bears this year and will simply add depth. He'll be a very decent #3 or #4 back for the Bears and as such will see plenty of PT during his career. Hopkins is the 2nd of 3 WR signings for Cal and will add some depth as well.
