The biggest thing between college and professional sports is tradition and pageantry. I am not saying pro teams don't have tradition but typically tradition in the pro ranks is attributed to winning. College is a whole different story.
EA had many positive things working on the PS2 / XBox versions -- Team-specific entrances, team-specific score celebrations, classic teams and uniforms, etc. It is confusing as to why these things are missing on more powerful consoles.
For me, I don't get much into the recruiting aspect. I typically play single seasons but from all the forums I read, the recruiting needs a fix for those that want that immersion.
Things I want fixed:
1) Presentation -- NCAA 05 (I believe) had a pre-game show with Lee Corso doing the mascot head picks. It wasn't awesome but it was a cool touch. Why can't EA add ESPN, ESPN U, ESPN 2 presentation and could also include ABC Saturday night games.
2) College Gameday -- I don't expect an hour show but at least highlight key conference / national games with post-game highlights and stats
3) Graphics -- I don't hate the graphics but I still hate how you cannot see pride stickers from the normal camera angle. I would also like to see the little pieces of rubber bounce up when guys drag their feet AND water splash up in rainy games...
4) Dynamic weather -- Weather changing during the game (as long as it isn't overdone)
5) Dynamic team updates aka NCAA Basketball -- Understand that EA cannot add player names but it would be cool to see teams like TCU and Boise properly represented...Every year, there are surprise teams that make a run that are rated low in August...
5A) Bring back classic teams, uniforms, team-specific entrances, more bands with more school-specific formations....
