I want to be like Derek Dooley was at Louisiana Tech. He was the Head Football coach and the Athletic Director.

Oh, I agree. Don't get me wrong. I want advanced scheduling in the game. I just don't want to play an AD mode to get it. I prefer coaching, but would love it if the advanced scheduling feature could make it in as an option with the rest of the pre-season tasks.

I guess for me, a good AD mode will have nothing to do with pricing seats, etc. I hated that about Owner Mode in Madden. But I do like being able to hire/fire coaches, change conferences, handle the scheduling, etc. I'd even be okay with building a stadium (though I'd prefer to be able to have stadium expansions for smaller schools, rather than a whole new stadium, but that's probably just not realistic). I have no desire to rename my stadium with a corporate name (I wish Madden would take that out - I hate having every other stadium have a fake corporate named stadium in year two, even though the old stadium name is still plastered all over the stadium).

AD, for how much it could bring to dynasties. Watch you team evolve, then if/when you lose your coach, watch them change identities, rinse repeat...

Re: Are you the AD or Coach?

I think people are veering away from the OP's original question. It's not an issue of AD duties vs coaching duties; presumably you'd wear both hats regardless and do as little or as much as you wanted with the CPU handling the rest.

The question is would you rather stay with the original team or leave when a better job is offered; that's it. Not scheduling vs recruiting or stadium building vs gameplanning, etc; just would you stay or go.

Re: Are you the AD or Coach?

AD.

I only play as Louisville and only want to play as Louisville. I have no desire to be any other team. I want to hire coaches and coordinators, much like the Madden series, or how it was done via CHoops 2k8.

I truly am hoping that AD mode made it into the game this year, with the coaching carousel. Damn...how sweet would that be.
