That's not true at all. You are referring to the USC situation. When a school is put on probation kids can leave without penalty (not sure on the exact details) but if a coach is fired or leaves for another job you will HAVE to surrender a year. You are not eligible to play right away.

And say you increase the Pac-12 to 14 or 16 teams, the conference game set up stays at 9 conference games? And there is no way to change either of these?

That kind of stinks if true.

I think you misunderstood what I said. There are varying schedules for different sized conferences (13, 14, 15, 16) and will use one of those configured schedules for conferences of more than 12.

True - Ryan Mallett is a good example

Quote:

On January 14, 2008, Mallett made his move back to his home state official and enrolled at the University of Arkansas, where he redshirted the 2008 season due to the NCAA transfer policies. Mallett quarterbacked the Arkansas scout team in practice that season.

Ah, okay. So do any of those configurations contain 9 conference games? What I'm getting at is if I can have 9 conference games with 14 teams. :D

Along the lines of a Ryan Mallett situation and the question asked about transfers. If a scenario happened where a pro style offense is replaced with a coach of say an option offense. Will the QB or other players transfer?

Great question. Would love to see if teams changed from 3-4 D to a 4-3 D or 4-2-5 that the players that don't fit that scheme look to transfer out at the end of the year and the game makes reference to why the player is transferring.

No we won't be seeing that on a mass scale. Overall, I don't think transfers will be affected all that much at this point.

How do CPU teams make hires? Do they seem to look more at playbook style? Prestige? Record the previous year, or last couple years? How often will we see teams going to totally different styles? Will teams go from pro-style to the triple-option or spread-option like Georgia Tech and Michigan have tried in the last few years, or will they hire coaches with similar styles as the preivous coach?

In one of my recent sims on Coaching Carousel, I started off as the Oklahoma DC. Six years later, I was asked to be the head coach of my alma mater Nebraska after coaching stops of UNLV and Cal. It was pretty cool to see myself eventually get hired at Nebraska after a few years of work.

It seems to be a mixture of playbook style & prestige, but they will change up the playbook style if a great prestiged coach is out there....geography and alma maters will play a small part in it as well.

Any word on the ability to export online dynasty draft classes to Madden?

Reading on OS... CC is really taking a bashing as a lot of people see it as a let down. I am really happy the mode is in, even if it's less that what I hoped. I look forward to hearing more about homw the community members feel about it.

at the very least, I'm just happy the CPU coaches will be able to get new jobs, get fired, retire, etc.. before, as the user, you could change jobs, but all the other coaches remained at their school for 60 years(end of the dynasty). for the first year, I think this is a good addition. It took 2k 4-5 years to get CC down to the point it was in College Hoops 2k8 if I remember correctly.

Honestly I like that it is in the game. The shear depth this could create in future years could make this new feature very interesting.
