I felt like writing about this dynasty as it seems to intrigue me a little more than the usual dynasties I've done. In this one, I imported ten of my created teams to replace some of the top teams I generally schedule to knock them down some. So if you happen to be a fan of these teams who've been eliminated, take no offense. This is just something I tried to do differently and hold appeal. As the updates unfold, I'll cover each of the twelve teams mostly in-depth and a national overview, possibly highlighting a great game, rivalry, or major upset.

Without further ado...
Football is Back

The 2010 season of college football is set to kickoff in a couple of weeks. This year, we welcome twelve new coaches to the FBS ranks. Some are making their head coaching debuts while others have made a new for themselves at the lower levels. Coaches making their FBS debut are:

Luke Winters - Arizona - Winters, 36, takes over a team who went 8-4 in the regular season and losing its bowl game in blowout fashion. Winters rose through the coaching ranks at his alma mater Trinity College, a D-III school, becoming the Head Coach six years ago. Winters amassed a 44-28 record (3-2 in the playoffs), going 10-2 in his final season and ending with a berth in the semifinals.

Kyle Mourneaux - Caddo - Mourneaux, 41, takes over at Caddo after serving as the Offensive Coordinator for the last six years under Jerry Whitfield, who retired after last season's 3-9(1-7) debacle. Mourneaux is making his head coaching debut when the season kicks off.

Wyatt McMahon - Grand Valley - McMahon, 48, takes over a struggling Icehawk team who finished a dismal 2-10(0-8), losing all ten games by less than nine points - four by a field goal or less. McMahon served as the team's Defensive Coordinator for five years before moving on to become the Head Coach at neighboring Ferris State. McMahon was able to turn the program around during his five-year tenure, 2-10 his first year to consecutive 8-4 records and a playoff berth.

Buck Wylde - Horizon State - Wylde, 50, takes over after serving as the team's Defensive Coordinator for eight of the past ten seasons, five in this past stint. After his first stint as the DC, Wylde left to become the Head Coach at Arcadia College. Wylde returned to HSU after three seasons, going 18-18.

John Holliday - Independence - Holliday, 39, takes over at Independence after a disappointing 5-7 season. Holliday previously served as the Offensive Coordinator at Pipeline for the last four years. This will be Holliday's debut as a Head Coach.

Levi Turner - Indiana - Turner, 34, takes over a struggling Indiana program, going 4-8(1-7) last season, marred with a late season collapse. Turner comes to IU after three seasons as the Head Coach at University of Indianapolis, where he complied a 20-16 record.

Mike Chandler - Mychra - Chandler, 39, inherits the Jaguars after a 6-6(2-6) season, just missing out on a bowl berth. Chandler served as the Jaguars Offensive Coordinator for the last four years. This will be Chandler's Head Coaching debut.

Red Payne Sr. - New Holland - Payne, 78, returns to coaching after a ten-year coaching retirement to take over the Dragons after going 5-7(2-6) last season. Payne has compiled a lifetime record of 198-148 (26-12 in the playoffs, including two National Championships) in his thirty-eight years as a head coach at the D-II and D-III levels.

Keith Crosby - Ottawa College - Crosby, 45, takes over a struggling program that went 2-10(0-8) last season. Crosby left Alberta in Canada to become the Head Coach at Ottawa. Crosby is well-established within Canada but will make his American football coaching debut.

Laika'a Manumala - Pipeline - Manumala, 38, takes over at Pipeline after serving as the Offensive and Defensive Line Coach for the past four years. Manumala previously coached at Hawaii-Hilo, going 38-22 in his five years as Head Coach, before coming to Pipeline.

Dale Jay - Wileyville - Jay, 55, takes over a program in flux, finishing last season 6-6(1-6), just missing a bowl game. Jay has compiled a lifetime record of 148-92 (18-12 in the playoffs with one national championship) in his twenty years as a Head Coach at the D-II level.

Stay with us as we follow these "rookie" FBS coaches to see if they have success at college's top level.
