Here is the easiest way to recruit IMO. go to google, type in a team, then forum, i.e colts forum. Then go down some until you see one that looks unofficial, i.e coltsfreaks.com Sign up, prefferably with a name fitting for the forum, i.e Manning4prez. Make a post on an off-topic discussion thread asking if any1 likes to play aroud with madden or NCAA.
If you get people who say yes, then you post a link to Madden-live and say good things about it, and after that, say I'm not tryna spam, just tryna give some madden players a chance for a few tips.
Then you give the link to Mod about where you posted it, and it's easy points for recruiting. This place is already taken.
