Yep. Most likely you're going to land as a coordinator and gotta work your way back up, but there will be a job offer or two for a HC after he gets fired. Kinda depends on availability, and if you notice in the carousel screen, there is a section you can arrow over to called "unexpected jobs" which are jobs that have opened up due to coaches leaving for better jobs.Quote:

Also would be nice if they gave the Coordinators ratings and those ratings translate to recruiting. A lot of times a recruit will go to a school because of a coordinator.Quote:

You'll get a mixture of offers. With all of the jobs, there's a hierarchy in how they ranked them so for example, the head coach at New Mexico State might be a lower ranked job than the Offensive Coordinator at Florida.Quote:

however maybe next year they could expand it like you mention and add value to the coordinators, thus making them more important
Put it this way. You only have certain amount of time to get something completely new in, would you rather have a good working base or EVERYTHING in, full of bugs, and nothing to look forward for years to come?Quote:

Can you guys offer any insight on the recruiting "tuning" described in one of the articles? This is the biggest disappointment to me so far if true. IMO there is simply not enough weight given to scholarship offers in recruiting . I have seen some highly-ranked recruits walk on at a school when having offers from prestigious schools which is ridiculous.
Also, besides whether a particular recruit fits into a particular team's offensive or defensive scheme, the logic in the number of recruits at a particular position can be flawed. For instance I have seen one team sign 3 punters (all within the top 5 punters available that year) in one season. I know that the playing time pitch addresses some of this but there needs to be a more general position by position logic as well.
I'd be furious and breaking stuff if this happened :mad:Quote:

The CPU will have a list of top/rumored candidates, though just because a name isn't on that list, doesn't mean the offer won't come to them. It's like Miami last year... no way that Al Golden was in their top candidates when they started the process.Quote:

Just to clarify, I'm not bashing them for doing it this way. I'm just saying that it's not as cool of a feature as I was initially thinking it was going to be (but hopefully it will be in future years).Quote:

The flexibility is huge.Quote:

In an online dynasty can you Supersim a game vs a human opponent via the PC or are these games a must play via console??
That would be awesome if both players could just call plays vs one another on their PC's. [a Coach mode sim game]
I'm guessing no, but I thought I would ask.
