off topic, i just learned about madden finally adding assisted tackles and half sacks into the game, can you please add this feature to the ncaa version of the game....it will make the game more realistic and the tackle stats more accurate

I don't think you have an appreciation for what a 6-star program is. There are only like 6 of them in the country at a given time.

I don't think you have an appreciation for what I am trying to say. Should I be able to take Navy, go to 4 BCS bowls, and be a 6 star program? It goes both ways, sir.

And Notre Dame is the definition of a 6 star program. Their tradition is unparalleled. A 9-4 season shouldn't change that. If you disagree with me, then you disagree with the Devs. Notre Dame is a 6 star team year in and year out. Even after their 7 win season, and even after their 3 win season. If they were going to be demoted to 5 stars, it should have happend a couple years ago. I want to see consistent logic. Start them as a 5 star, I won't complain. Just make it harder to gain/lose prestige at any level...PERIOD

You have a point here*, but...

You are wrong here. They've won 1 bowl game in the last how many years? Against a down Hawaii team? There's no way in hell Notre Dame is a 6-star program.

I certainly do.

Notre Dame's Program Tradition is Elite but their Coach Experience and Prestige should be low (I didn't check what they are by default in the game), their Championship Contender rating should be low, and their Campus Lifestyle rating should be average at best. How is that a 6-star program?

Tradition isn't everything! The point you keep missing is that there are other programs with excellent tradition that don't currently suck. That's the difference between 6 star and 5 star.

*The bigger problem in the Navy case is less the fast-rising prestige in the game, and more the fact that you can go to 4 straight BCS bowls with them in the game...

One last thing about competitive recruiting or negative recruiting as it is called in real life. I hope that is balanced like in real life. While some recruits do buy into negative recruiting. Alot of recruits are also turned off by it. I've heard many a recruit say, "Don't talk bad about another school or tell me what they can't do for me. Talk about your school and what YOU CAN do for me."

So I hope that its a gamble to use this feature and not a sure fire way to hurt other schools in recruiting (group of buddies decide to team up against a guy that can recruit and negative recruit against him to hurt his recruiting efforts, etc.)

Did anybody else notice on the ND Coaching Carousel screen that they have a 5-1 Rivalry Record? IIRC, you could only have 4 rivals in 09. That would be a nice addition.

I dont know if i'm the only person that noticed this but EA has already been doing this with their recruits. Although I havn't seen many 5* recruits left "untouched" (but there are a few sometimes), every off-season i see at least 6-10 4* recruits that have little interest in anyone. Simulate a season and look carefully down the prospect database, they're there.
