RECRUIT YOUR POWERHOUSE

College Basketball Manager introduces an innovative recruiting system with thirteen key "pitches" that represent various aspects of your basketball program. These pitches, such as Feeling Wanted, Playing Time, and Proximity to Home, are graded on an A-F scale, providing an overview of your school's strengths and weaknesses. The recruit's perception of each pitch is pivotal, and their knowledge about your program can be influenced through strategic actions like calls and campus visits. What sets this system apart is your ability to sway recruits on the importance of each pitch, allowing you to strategically shape their preferences and secure their commitment to your program
