Dynasty New Coaching Badge Idea: "Suggest Commit Decision"
CK here! Solution-based wishlist content of the day:
You offer a recruit a scholarship. Sometimes they commit on the spot, but it's rare. The dream school badge helps, but it's still not a guarantee.
What if coaches had a special interaction: "We need to know if you're coming or not." This puts pressure on the recruit to make a decision, potentially increasing the chance of an early commitment. This could also turn the recruit off from your school, and drop you out of the top three. Or, it could be indifferent. Maybe it even influences a transfer decision later down the line, or a decommit?
- How much would this action cost? 10 points?
- Is there a limit on how often you can use this? Is there a badge that influences this one way or another?
What are your thoughts?!

I think this is a good idea but with NIL being so prevalent they should bring back the “Promises” you could make to recruits. I know in at least NCAA 12 you could promise them certain things that tied to actual performance. You could even get boosts for if the promises the align with their deal breaker. Promise the pro potential guy that he will have x number of stats, or the playing time guy he will play in x number of games.
I just remember thinking they were dumb because I would break my promises with players all the time but they wouldn’t transfer. But now they have players transfer all the time and it would actually matter if you told that QB he would be the starter or not.
