Welcome to the best NCAA Football dynasty on any console: The Coaching Carousel (tm). In this dynasty, goons start at the worst programs in college football and can either work their way up the coaching ladder or build a powerhouse out of a traditional also-ran. Thanks to various EA glitches, the original Coaching Carousel had to be abandoned going into Season 3. Now, let us never speak of that again. The Rules: - Heisman difficulty - absolutely no re-starts against the CPU - you must create your own coach (clever names encouraged) - you must join a 1-star (non-BCS) program in season 1 Coaching Goons: Diodeous - Colorado - (GT: BenedictWong) Mr. World - UTSA - (GT: TacklingAl) AfterFather - California - (GT: BJTheRealist) Lil Jon Galt - Oregon - (GT: Kancho) cletus42o - Nebraska - (GT: cletus42o) Texas A. Wreckus - West Virginia - (GT: QuikDrawQuincy) Our Teams for 2015: #7 Nebraska Cornhuskers - Offensive Coordinator: Cletus Calhoun Top Returning Players David Santos (MLB) 94 OVR (91 ACC - 88 TKL - 90 HPW - 90 PUR - 89 PLR) Tommy Armstrong Jr. (QB) 90 OVR (89 SPD - 88 ACC - 88 THA - 80 BRT - 83 ELU - 85 JKM) *Noteable Player - Jonathan Rose (CB) 92 OVR (91 SPD - 95 ACC - 99 PUR - 92 PLR - 94 MAC - 94 ZOC - 91 PRS - 74 CTH) #8 Oregon Ducks - Head Coach: Hank Hill Top Returning Players Marcus Mariota (QB) 99 OVR (90 SPD - 93 ACC - 99 INJ - 99 THP - 94 THA - 88 ELU - 88 JKM) Christian French (LE) 91 OVR (83 SPD - 92 ACC - 91 JMP - 91 STA - 99 INJ - 84 TAK - 86 HPW - 86 PUR) Notable Player - Byron Marshall (HB) 98 OVR (95 SPD - 97 ACC - 92 STA - 97 INJ - 94 BRT - 92 ELU - 91 JKM - 91 BCV) #14 West Virginia Mountaineers - Offensive Coordinator: Saul Goodman Top Returning Players Karl Joseph (FS) 95 OVR (90 SPD - 96 ACC - 91 AWR - 89 TKL - 85 HPW - 99 PUR - 85 PLR - 85 MAC - 92 ZOC - 80 BLS) Rushel Shell (HB) 94 OVR (93 SPD - 98 ACC - 96 STA - 90 BRT - 90 SPM - 80 CTH - 84 CIT - 82 ROR) #18 California Golden Bears - Offensive Coordinator: Spark Master Tape Top Returning Players Bryce Treggs (WR) 95 OVR (99 SPD - 99 ACC - 91 RR - 90 CTH) Jalen Jefferson (LB) 93 OVR (96 TKL - 91 HPW - 85 SPD - 89 ACC) *Noteable Player - Chris Harper (WR) 95 OVR (98 SPD - 99 ACC - 93 RR - 89 CTH - 88 REL UT-San Antonio Road Runners - Head Coach: Fatts McChubbs III DEFENDING NATIONAL CHAMPIONS Top Returning Players Mauricio Sanchez (SS) 86 OVR (99 AWR - 93 PUR - 90 PLR - 87 ZOCR - - 74 BLS) Kenny Bias (WR) 84 OVR (99 CTH - 84 ROR - 81 JKM) Colorado Buffalos - Head Coach Terry Schiavo Top Returning Players Christian Powell (HB) 93 OVR (97 BRT - 94 BCV - 89 TRU - 89 CAR) Yuri Wright (CB) 87 OVR (97 SPD - 94 ACC - 92 MAC - 91 ZOC - 90 PUR - 90 PLR) We're in Week one.

Cal over Nebraska, 45-29. Took me too long to get any offense going, game got out of reach early. Tried to get a comeback going late, recovered the onsides, but got stuffed and had to punt it away. GG AF!

All set up and r2a. I'm in Denver until next Tuesday, so I would prefer that we not advance past week #2 until I get back. I'll keep checking the thread updates on the app to see if that's acceptable.

Roadrunners over Buffs 49-37. My defense could not stop the pass whatsoever and so Mr. World's QB just absolutely went off. My 3 picks didn't help, but whatever. Good game, buddy. r2a

Good game, buddy. r2a Yeah that was a really fun game. Sorry about the 79 yard FG attempt. I accidentally selected it and thought what the hell. R2A. It's really nice to be playing again.

My game against cletus is going to be ugly as gently caress. Breaking in this new team last night against Mr. World was a rough go. My offense has potential, but I've got some very limited QBs commanding it. My defense worries the hell out of me if I can't stop players rated 5-10 points lower and if I can't get pressure at all during the first game. Cletus, when is good for you? Tonight is the only bad night for me

Okay, I'll holler when I have a better idea of my availability. Everyone's wife or gf seems to be going out of town this month. In less than two weeks I have to drive my wife up to Princeton for a two month internship

Cool, I'm going to be staying in Brooklyn. Aside from playing e-football and smoking a ton of weed, I'd like to imagine I'm vaguely normal and wouldn't be too weird to interact with. Do you want to try to take care of our game tomorrow night? Any time after 7pm EST should be good with me

I object to that term; I prefer "permanently weeded". I'm coming up from Tallahassee. See you tomorrow night then

Nebraska over Colorado, 24-14. I was happier with this option playbook, feels like it's the right way to go with my QB. But this was an ugly game. Too many interceptions thrown, and then I accidentally fumbled off two interceptions to really sweeten things up. It was a fun game though! GG Dio

Great Game Texas. Cal over West Virginia 38-35. The difference in this game was turnovers. If I wasnt able to get any I probably lose this game by 14 as my defense was dominated all game and could not get any stops besides the turnovers. BTW Bryce Treggs is a monster. We're on to Week 3!

Diodeous posted:I am going to try to take care of my game and advance this before I leave for NYC on Saturday morning. I'm dropping my wife off in NJ for an internship and will return to Flawda the Sunday of the following week. I can either transfer commish away for the week and take over when I get back, or I can just advance, we can drag rear end for like 8 days, and then resume
