Producer’s Corner
Default
September 25, 2008

LISTEN NOW!

Today in the Producer's Corner, we have NCAA Football 09 designer Ben Haumiller talking about NCAA recruiting. I love playing the NCAA Dynasty Online mode, but my friends back in Texas are killing me in recruiting. Well, I work at EA, so I went to the man who can give me an edge. Ben Haumiller has completed more than 30 seasons of NCAA this year, and hundreds of seasons as a part of the NCAA team.

In this podcast, you'll find out the intricacies of recruiting. Tune in and you can get the answers to these and other burning questions:

· When should you offer scholarships to athletes you want?

· How much does it hurt your pursuit when a recruit hangs up on you?

· What's the difference between a quick call versus the standard manual call?

I recommend grabbing a pen and pad, especially if you're trying to recruit for some bi-directional school from a small state.

The most comprehensive info for recruiting in "NCAA 09" is only in this podcast. I learned a lot, and I know you will as well.

Also, don't forget to check Ben Haumiller's work on the EA Sports Top 25.

Maybe they should work on fixing the recruiting glitch so this "how to" will actually work...
Players leaving early and cant keep them even after convincing them to stay... Lame EA...

If you are using Firefox that could be the problem. I couldn't get it to work in the Firefox browser so I pulled this up on Internet Explorer and it works!
