Yeah no reason to put restrictions on playbooks, we should find ways to best utilize our personnel since we can't control them. Have to give them the best chance to succeed so yeah go all out on playbooks.

BTW, that Flex stuff in that video did look pretty good from both teams especially inside and I think with some slider adjustments we might be able to improve the outside stuff but we'll see.
I agree start on AA default and go from there.
Wouldn't mind giving it a shot.
Great Cody, select your team from the list earlier in this thread and I'll get you added.
Check this out guys.
I just realized that the starting QB for W. Mich, Alex Carder, played and graduated from the same high school my Mother did and it's very close to where I currently live. Gives me a bit more of a personal connection so that'll be fun.

Quick Question....This will be my first "Coach Mode" dynasty. Very excited. Do we let the AI control both sides of the ball besides playcalling? I hope so.
Yes, with NCAA 12 there is going to be a true Coach mode option so you will be able to make all the normal adjustments presnap after picking your play but once you hike the ball you have no control.
Ok, I thought I had read that you could control whichever side you were coordinating and could control both sides if you were the Head coach.
yep, you can be an O or D coordinator or the head coach but either way it's coach mode so you pick your plays, make any presnap adjustments and then hike the ball. After that the computer plays out the play then rinse and repeat.
It's much more of a thinking man's game rather than who is the best thumb jockey.
"It's much more of a thinking man's game rather than who is the best thumb jockey."
I agree.
I've always played coach mode and love the idea of actually being the coach and dealing with depth charts, recruiting and playbooks to put my players in the best possible position to be successful. Plus it's much more of a challenge than controlling the players possibly taking advantage of some AI flaw like some thumb jockeys do.

Great thread featuring youALREADYknow's version of coach mode for NCAA 11. If you would, read each of his posts throughout - some great points and ideas about sliders, house rules, and other things to consider. I realize NCAA 12 will be different but we could use this as a template for ours or at least get some good ideas.
I tried this system and barring a couple minor things that could be tweaked, it played out in a very realistic fashion. Best Coach mode I've played yet.
Also, what's the general consensus on using named rosters? My opinion is that they'd be okay to use as long as only the player names were altered. No changes (appearance, jersey numbers, stats) to the original game roster. Just names.
Yep I'm very familiar, yAk and I were in a private OD with just him and I. It was a lot of fun.
We certainly won't make any changes to the roster, and unless we want to wait we may not even have names unless we make them auto-named, or maybe, I can't remember but I think maybe we can name our rosters once we start the OD
I'd honestly rather not do our own naming and certainly not auto-naming. Either a universal roster file or none at all IMO. I'd rather have no names than fake names.
fine with me, we'll figure it out as a league when the time comes
Just getting some of my thoughts out...
Not too familiar with OD's honestly but I hope there's a way to prevent people from restarting their User VS CPU games until they win. Unless it's an extreme circumstance (having console mess up, power outage) I believe that shouldn't be allowed. At most, one or two restarts a season - if that.
Coach mode is for mature players so I'd hope that no one in this league would do that. I'd hope that if you lose you lose, we'll address restarts if they become an issue certainly.
That's awesome :). Looking forward to seeing what we all can come up with. Glad to have you at the helm, CK.Quote:

You know....if this is lesiurely paced....I might give it a shot if you have room....Quote:

We'd love to have you JBHuskers, would be great to have an esteemed admin at TGT be in the league
It will certainly be as leisurely as possible but not so much that guys lose interest.
Awww shucks :DQuote:

I'll get beat up in the new Pac 12 with Washington State.Quote:

Love a challenge but that'll be a tough road for sure.
I'm starting in small conferences in a couple dynasties already so I figure taking over a :1star: at a power conference could change that up a bit for me.Quote:
