In College Football 26, one of the most valuable coaching skill trees in Dynasty mode is Elite Recruiter. However, unlocking it requires a major accomplishment, i.e., landing two top-five recruiting classes. While it may sound like a long grind, there is a fast and effective strategy to accomplish it.
Continue reading as we break down how to unlock Elite Recruiter quickly and efficiently.
How to Unlock Elite Recruiter Fast in College Football 26
Here's how you can unlock Elite Recruiter in College Football 26:
Start With the Right Program
Don't rebuild a 2-star school in Dynasty mode and try pulling in the two top-five classes. To do so, you'll need to first establish a program, preferably of volume and quality, ideally a 4-star or higher.
Know Your Target Score
For cracking the top five, try aiming for at least 250-255 points in your recruitment class. Anything under 244 could put you at risk based on simulated results. This could mean volume plus stars, i.e., ideally 35 players, and the majority of them are 4-stars with a few 5-stars or transfers.
Speedrun Recruiting: The Essentials
- Start building your board with R2 sorts for interest and pipeline tiers.
- Offer scholarships early and focus on players with green arrows for positive influence.
- Skip weeks strategically to let your recruiting efforts "cook."
- Avoid visits while in the regular season, as they are dependent on game outcomes. Save them for the transfer portal.
- Keep your port updated constantly, remove locked-out players, and refill it often.
Transfer Portal is Equal to a Game Changer
The transfer portal will serve as your secret weapon. You'll have to use the same recruiting strategies, but don't forget to arrange visits, as you'll have more time and a better chance of landing last-minute talent.
By combining fast recruiting, aggressive board management, and smart use of the transfer protocol, you'll consistently hit the top-five class mark. Do this twice, and the Elite Recruiter skill tree will be yours.
