Hey Bordeaux, someone already posted this under another video on your other channel, but I wanna repost here too. I think, as a send off to the greatest coach of all time’s career, you should do the Nick Saban Challenge. Using Alabama, you have to get 7 national championships, 9 conference Titles, 4 Heisman winners, a winning record against Auburn, Tennessee, and LSU, and you have his career of 17 years to do it all. If that's not enough you could try for 76 First Team All Americans, sign a top 5 recruit class 16 of 17 years just like he did or have 44 1st round draft picks. On Heisman of course.

Gem/Bust talks about the recruits dev trait, not overall/stats... For Example, a 3 star gem might have star dev, while a 4 star bust only has normal dev, their ratings are still the same though.

[@xavierisabot]

The dev traits are part of it, but a five star gem has a better overall than a five star bust 90% of the time. Edit: athlete scramblers are broken rn and all the three star busts can be better than 5 star fields generals

[@manwithnewname]

well like you just said, a 3 star gem would have the same stats as a 4 star bust so ratings are still a part of it. I'm pretty sure development traits are mostly random since theres a perk to reveal them on visits although busts might only get normal dev

You can get an insta-commit anytime that you're first on a players list and you offer him.

Bordeaux, if you want your passes to be more accurate, set the pass type to placement and accuracy, the pass lead increase to small, and the reticle speed to 16. That’ll help you get those back shoulder passes and beat those corner routes, and you can place the ball where you need it to be.

Is it possible that scouting shows what the recruits stats are as their star that is represented? So if they were a 3 star gem you would be seeing 3 star stats and not the 4 star stats. I think it would be cool if that was the case that when the gem popped up it would show the +/- to those stats for them being a gem. I'm also a big advocate of seeing the stat increases at the end of the season like it used to have like (+4) or whatever to the side of each stat.

[@gabecox3548]

In my experience the gem players have nothing to do with individual ratings (maybe it affects their overall rating), I think it affects their Dev Trait. For example, a gem player is more likely to be an impact, star, or elite dev while a bust player is more likely to be a normal dev player. Some gems are low dev and some busts are high dev, but those are exceptions to the rule I think. A bust may be a better player than a gem as a freshman but will certainly be worse by their senior years.
