Do you give your coach a backstory?

[Draconian Sanctions]

Well for my guys it will be make believe. I'll just plug myself into the game and whatever coordinator i'm replacing...well I'll just say he's coaching in the NFL somewhere.

All the other coaches in the game will be real though.

For the NFL, I do the whole Lottery business in my head.

For NCAA, I say that I was a High School coach who won Championship after Championship. The man in charge saw something special and took a big chance on me. I'm not letting the big man down.

I do have all of this backstory for my coach, but thats because I always create myself as my coach.

I'm thinking..

Played FB for Clemson (While Rich Rodriguez was the OC)
Graduate Assistant for two years.
Coached HS until 2010. Won 3 SC state championships.

Then Pretend:

Last year Dabo Swinney was fired and Rich Rodriguez was hired as the HC, then he brought me in as the OC..

Probably spelled his name wrong.

yea, I kinda draw it up from nowhere while I'm editing rosters or recruiting.

Anyone going to do any fictional coaches like Hayden Fox or Butter Maker?

Ok I'm game then:

1959: Discovers Ray Bower's body with 3 best friends
1977-1980: Oregon QB
1981: Fell in love with beautiful woman
1982: Woman turned out to be Commie double-agent
1993: LSU Grad assistant
1993ish: Severe liver damage from Baton Rouge
1997: Spends year playing GoldenEye 007 on N64
2005: Fescue taste-tester for Les Miles (promotion!)
2007: Groomsman when fat friend from 1959 marries Rebecca Romign
2008-2010: QB coach at Ok. St.
2011: Head coach-in-waiting at WfVU behind Dana Holgorsen

I change my mind, this does make the game better.
