Navy used to be a pass heavy team (Staubauch), Army just returned to the triple option with their new coach, and Air Force uses a Multiple offense which includes option as well as shotgun and other formations, so it wouldn't be that unrealistic. I just wish recruiting had changes for these teams as well as no redshirting, etc.

well in that picture, the fired OC from TTU became the head coach for Army(I assume the old Army coach was fired, and with a B+ prestige, the TTU OC was a steal for Army in video game terms). we don't know who the OC of Army is, it could be another Option based OC.

I think I'll start off as the offensive coordinator at USC, then go to Tennessee for only a year, and then take the head coach job at USC...hahahaha. (too bad we can't import/export coaches between madden and ncaa, or i'd make a stop in Oakland for a year....hahaha)

I like a challenge...so ill probably take a 1 star school's OC job and see just what I can do from there.

Something is better than nothing, but I highly doubt the CC will do anything besides have teams run slightly different schemes every once in awhile. I am hoping next year they go all out because there will be no excuse to not have it on at least the same level as 2k8 then. You can say the CC in 2k8 took 3-4 years, but that was also over half a decade ago and EA should be able to get it in within 2 years. Without any true ratings top schools will always be on top while the bottom feeders will always be that way. I went from CC being my most anticipated feature to it being the improvement I care about least in this year's game. I am more excited to hear that teams actually recruit to their styles now. Hopefully EA implemented that one completely right.

There are two wishes I have. First is that I wish you would just STOP posting because you are pessemistic, ill-informed, unintellegent, whiney, nonsensical, and you will never be happy with anything EA Sports can or will do. At the end of the day I'd prefer if you do not buy and play any EA Sports game and stick with your 2K releases.

My second wish is that you would change your forum avatar, because I am a huge Braves fan and you are completely representing them badly with your antics in this forum.

I love videos! You can talk all you want about something, but to see it in motion takes it to another level.

On a side note: I just found out about the option to ignore posts from certain users.

Greatest. Addition. Ever.

Now browsing these forums over the next couple of months, or so will be much more enjoyable!

I'm very interested in seeing how the CPU controlled CC will play out over the course of multiple years in Dynasty. I'm concerned that the good teams in 2011 will be the same good teams in 2021. I'm hoping for bad coaching hires so that the landscape of the super powers will change every so often. Texas doesn't stay on top forever. Bama doesn't. Florida doesn't, etc, and Oregon will rise, Boise will rise, and West Virginia will rise, etc.

I'm also hoping that in 2020, there won't by 70 teams running the triple option or something like that. Hopefully the the generated coaches in the game don't get random coaching styles, but they stay in proportion to the coaching styles of the coaches in real life. The majority of the teams should have pro-style/spread offenses.

I'm interested to see the down-the-road effect of everything, also. Do the versions that the handful of people that have the game not allow for you to sim multiple seasons? I'm assuming not, since some thing probably aren't finalized yet.
