How to unlock the Setup Shop In the Big 3 achievement in NCAA Football 11 - Definitive Guide
I got this achievement by purchasing the Extra Pipeline State Time Saver. I do not want to sound like I am talking you into paying 160 points for an achievement, I just wanted to let everyone know that it will work.
Non-Time Saver method: [Thanks to pivotalRAGE IV] Pick Vanderbilt as your team because it already has Texas and Florida as pipelines. Go into your season and fill your board with 1-3 star recruits from California ONLY (The lower the better). The achievement is based on the number of players coming out of a specific state not the quality of the players. Go into your recruiting menu and make sure that you go down to the bottom left hand corner to select your Recruiting Plan. The first screen there has an option for the CPU to assist in placing players on and off your board. Set that to OFF so that the CPU doesn't take any of the players away. Sim the entire season and since you will be competing for players against schools like SJSU and CSU, you are likely to sign at least 4-5 at which point I got California as a pipeline and thus the achievement.
Time Saver method: Purchase the Extra Pipeline State Time Saver. Set up a new Dynasty with Vanderbilt. Vanderbilt already has Texas and Florida as pipeline states, so all you have to do is add California with the Extra Pipeline and there is your achievement.
