College Football 25 Dynasty Mode recruitment guide

Recruiting the best talents is critical to achieving consistent success as a coach in College Football 25 Dynasty mode.

But you’re not the only one looking out to bring in new talent, as other schools (AI/human controlled) in your save will try to do the same. While the prospect lists consist of many athletes with different talents and qualities, it’s your job to zero in and bring some of them to your team. This is easier said than done, as unlike recruitment in Madden NFL, there are a lot more factors to consider.

How does recruitment work in College Football 25 Dynasty mode

Recruitment should be your foremost area of concern after creating a College Football 25 Dynasty mode save. In the Recruiting section, go to the Prospect list. There are other options like Transfer Portal, My School, and Top Classes, and you can ignore them for the time bein𝓰g.

The Prospect List contains the names of all available freshmen who are yet to join a school. There are different metrics, and here are some of tඣhe more important o🐼nes:

• Rank: Prospective Rank in the recruiting class
• Need: Highlights team needs, and if a prospect plays in a position that warrants immediate attention.
• Rating: A system of star ratings ranging between one and five stars that indicates the potential quality of a recruit.
• INT: An athlete’s potential interest to join your team.
• Stage: Shows where the athlete is in terms of selecting his school of preference.

There are a a few other attributes as well,, like year, home state, and offers. Once you’re interested in recruiting someone, press the X/A button to add them to the Recruiting Board.

• Step 1: You’ll notice at the top of your screen that you have a certain number of hours every week. Use this to scout the prospects. I advise that you always scout a prospect completely.
• Step 2: Check the prospect’s Overview Screen. This screen shows essential information, such as their top schools and Dealbreakers.
• Step 3: If you’re not among a prospect’s top 8 schools or cannot match their Dealbreakers, it’s best to avoid investing any resources in them.
• Step 4: You can now invest more hours in certain actions to help a prospect make up his mind. Do note that the cost of an activity goes up based on how much influence they can impart.
• Step 5: Make sure to offer a scholarship to a prospect you want to add to your squad. Make sure to make the best choice possible, as you have a maximum of 35 scholarships to hand out in a season.

How does Scouting work in College Football 25?

Once you’re interested in a prospect, you’ll want to scout them. Doing till 100% helps you gain the following information:

• Attributes
• Physical abilities
• Mental abilities
• Development trait

Now it might not be possible that 100% scouting of a certain player will showcase his entire details. For example, the Development trait of a prospect could be hidden if your coach doesn’t have the required badges. However, scouting helps you to go beyond the star rating of a prospect.

Additionally, some athletes possess certain abilities that can turn them into great talents with proper development. As an undrafted prospect, the information꧑ available during recruitment will be limited. Scouting allows you to bypass that limitation to some extent, allowing you to make better decisions.

Once you have enough information, you can also use the different Actions available. All Actions require certain hours, and there’s an outer limit applicable for every prospect. Usually, sending all the hours on the same Action won’t work for all prospects. For example, a soft sell might be required to woo one prospect, while you might have to sway another.

How does My School and Dealbreakers work in College Football 25?

In the Recruitment section, you can check the My School tab to check the different grades of your program. For each category, you’ll notice specific conditions required to improve your grades. A higher grade will make your program a lot more attractive to a prospect. The grades of your program will keep changing throughout your Dynasty mode save.

Each prospect will reserve certain judgments for the grades. This will determine their motivation and Dealbreakers, which will, in turn, decide if they will be eager to join your school or not. In my experience, Dealbreakers have more importance; if your program doesn’t meet the requirement, it’s almost guaranteed that they won’t sign up.

Best tips and tricks for College Football 25 recruitment

The ultimate aiꦫm is to get a prospect verbally commit to your program so that you can sign them up. If you manage to do so successfully, there will be an image li👍ke the one on the cover of this article.

• Pay a lot of attention to Dealbreakers.
• Always pay attention to the team’s needs. This will also ensure that you don’t end up with an imbalanced squad.
• Don’t always focus on the star rating of a recruit. While a four/five-star recruit is an attractive prospect, you’ll face severe competition.

Ultimately, there’s no magic spell to get all the best talents for your school, which actually makes the Dynasty mode recruitment challenging and fun at the end of the day.
