### Turn On High School Experience

The first thing you&#39;ll want to do is make sure High School Experience is enabled in your league settings. While you&#39;re here, choose the difficulty you&#39;re comfortable with because your performance during these games is what determines your recruiting success.
### Choosing Your Position

There are several new positions available this year, including Tight End, EDGE, and Safety. I selected Free Safety for this experience.

You can either select one of the preset Legend Builds or create your own custom player. Each one comes with different ratings and play styles. Oryou can create your own custom build to maximize every rating that you want.
### Building the Best Free Safety

Do you want to go with a lot of speed or height? Focus on being a coverage or run defensive specialist? These are the decisions that you will make when setting your height, weight, and ratings for your player.
Personally I found that going **6&#39;3&quot;, 204 pounds, with the Standard body type** was the best for me because it lets you reach **89 Speed as opposed to 87 Speed at 6&#39;4**. From there, I focused on hitting the important ability thresholds as a **Coverage Specialist**. 

Try to prioritize ratings that will reach the highest possible thresholds for the abilities that you can unlock. These are what I went with: 

- Ball Hawk at 91 Acceleration
- Layout by reaching 80 Spectacular Catch
- Platinum House Call with 83 Catch
- Silver Robber at 90 Change of Direction
- Gold Knockout with both 90 Man Coverage and 90 Zone Coverage


Those ability tiers make a huge difference throughout Road to Glory.

For Mental Abilities, I selected:

- Adrenaline
- Winning Time
- Fan Favorite

### Choosing Your Schools 

Next you&#39;ll select your Top 10 schools. Once that&#39;s done, the High School season begins.
### Understanding High School Moments

Your coach will explain how Moments work.

These are the key plays you&#39;ll complete throughout the season to build your recruiting profile and improve your scholarship score.

College coaches will also begin contacting you throughout the year.

Each week you&#39;ll choose four out of five available moments.

Before selecting one, take a look at the drive goals and choose the challenges you feel most confident completing.
One quick Gameplay tip...

If you want to change the camera angle during gameplay, simply press Up or Down on the D-Pad. Choose whichever one you are most comfortable with based on your position.
### Highlight Moments

During the season, schools may request a Highlight Moment.

For me, Texas wanted to evaluate me in person, so I accepted the challenge.

These special evaluations usually have specific objectives you must complete.

In my case I needed:

- A pass breakup , tackle for loss, or an interception
- Preventing a 30 yard touchdown


To complete it quickly, I called a Double Safety Blitz, and brought my Safety down to the line of scrimmage (outside of the Edge defender.) The Jump the Snap mechanic helped me successfully blitz off the edg to make the tackle for loss in the backfield.
### Scholarship Offers Start Rolling In

As your tape score increases, schools will begin extending scholarship offers.

After the first few weeks I received offers from programs like:

- Houston
- Arkansas
- Wisconsin


Advancing another week finally brought the offer I was waiting for...

Texas. You can hard commit to your school of choice when receiving an offer.
### Recruiting Isn&#39;t Over Yet

Even after committing, other schools will continue reaching out.

Oregon tried making a late push, but by then I had already committed to Texas, so I turned them down.

Later in the season it&#39;s time to narrow your recruiting list down to your Top 3 schools.

Even though I was already committed, I kept looking at my options.

Michigan eventually offered me a scholarship.

Clemson wasn&#39;t far behind.

After another strong performance, Clemson officially joined the list as well.

Now I had offers from nearly every school I wanted.
### Scheme Fit Matters

This is where you should slow down before making your final decision.

When comparing my offers, I noticed something important.

Michigan was actually a better scheme fit than Texas.

That changed everything.

I decommitted from Texas and decided to wait until signing day before making my final choice.
### Signing Day

When it came time to pick my school, my final three were:

- Michigan
- Texas
- Clemson


After thinking it over...

I tossed the Clemson hat aside...

Passed on Texas...

And officially committed to **Michigan**!
