Preordered the game today



I started a dynasty with FAU on '13 to try to get ready for this...

Didn't realize they played Georgia and Alabama back to back Let's just say it wasn't pretty.

I decided it is probably better to just play a bunch of Heisman level games on the demo.

The more I keep playing with Oregon the more I want to use their playbook, but realize I may have to wait to get the right QB to run it.

Yeah I've been playing with VT a lot on the demo since they and Alabama have the biggest difference in talent. Oregon's playbook is awesome though, it's a lot of fun to run when you get a hang of it.

Been using Ohio State in prep for the other dynasty, and I think that may be a good match for ULL.

They are the last team I need to play with, they look fun though.

When you say 1 Star dynasty are you saying we stay at this school long term? Or are we good to jump to bigger and better things after we get new offers?

Jump around is fine, people can either stay at the 1-star and build them up or leave after a few seasons and try to get to their dream job.


Oh I thought when you said the 1 star dynasty ... you meant everyone had to stay there at that school ...

You might want to put me on the waitlist I don't know if this is something I really want to do if everyone is going to be changing schools.


ETA: Whatever I am still going to play but ...

I AM GOING ON RECORD TO SAY ... THAT I THINK IT WOULD BE BETTER FOR EVERYONE TO STAY AT THEIR CHOSEN 1* SCHOOL FOR THE DURATION OF THE DYNASTY ... FWIW, IT WAS ON THIS PREMISE THAT I JOINED THIS RAG TAG GROUP IN THE FIRST PLACE.

I agree, but I do think it'll take a minimum of 2 years in order to get a decent HC position. By that point, you would have likely recruited much better.

Colonel I think you need to make a decision ... Myself & oauron vote for you to stick with the 1* school you have chosen.

There are plenty of normal dynasties you can play in, keep this one special

Just happened to me in 13. I played as FAU and ran into UGA and Bama back to back and got crushed.

I like the everyone stay with 1-star teams. It makes the league different. If you could just leave to go to a better school 3 seasons in it would probably be just like every other league

*Official Decision* Everyone stays at their 1-star school, use some talent and build them up. Coaching contracts will be off so no one somehow gets fired from their school either

One of the better teams. I was surprised seeing Buffalo's ratings so high

Buffalo has a great RB, he's like 88 overall I think. And same, I chose ODU since I have a bunch of friends who go there.

Yeah he has the easiest rebuild job of everyone. Best available team and in a BCS conference. I wonder if they'll let teams move conferences in the online dynasty (not done by commissioner (me) but get invited to a different conference). They did this in some of the older games, but I don't think it's ever been in an online dynasty yet.
