the whole "owner mode" thing should not be included. however, they should have a "build a new stadium" feature. you can say what you want, but that feature would be awesome
i just don't buy the "why? you probably won't be able to build up a duke to a powerhouse anyway with the home field advantage settings." are you kidding me? i'm sure the game will be hard, for about a week. then everyone will be complaining about how easy it is, and looking for better sliders. a build a new stadium feature would only increase the playing ability of the game.

the only thing i would like from madden's owner mode would be merchandise...maybe. just because if you had a powerhouse team, you know that your "t-shirts, etc" would be selling like hot cakes. not to mention that the alumni would be very excited. these two things could give you money to build your new stadium. maybe you could buy bigger weightrooms. the better the weight room the more your players would progress. during recruiting you could pitch to recruits that your weight room is 1st class, like they do now in real life.

if you want to hear anymore of my ideas, just let me know. lol
EA hasn't contacted me yet, but i'm still waiting

Just what I was thinking!

Here's what i'd like to see re: an owner mode tho it would be called AD mode.

- ability to upgrade stadiums/build new stadium
- ability to hire asst. coaches on offense and defense.
- ability to modify school's uniform

I'd like to see the scheduling adjusted. I would like to be able to schedule future non-conference games (i.e. home-and-homes, or 2-for-1). That way you don't have an idea of exactly how good or bad a team is. It would be nice to go to the off-season menu and see that "The ______ University AD is interested in a home-and-home series to be played in 2007 and 2009."

the only possible aspect of an owner mode that I would like would be hiring assistant coaches. They would each coach a specific position and be responsible for recruiting a certain region nationally. You would still handle recruiting much the same, but their ratings as individual recruiters could help/hurt you in a region. Also, their skills as a position coach would have an impact on player development, and since you call the plays, perhaps an OC/DC capacity could somehow affect how well the other 10 non-controlled players execute the called plays.

You would have to deal with losing coordinators and assistants to bigger named schools, to head coaching jobs; you might have to promote your hot-shot DB coach to DC to keep him around. As another example, you may have to balance trying to find a guy who's both a good position coach and a good recruiter. Do you hire that whiz-bag recruiter who's only a mediocre developer of talent? What about that guy who can turn my grandma into an All-conference DB and is a great coordinator, but refuses to recruit (Joe Lee Dunn, anybody?)? I think it'd add a nice, new dimension to the game.

Just a thought.

that was more along the lines of what i was talking about. the pro game and college football are different so a feature like should reflect those difference(college teams would never move so why would that be in?)and i do agree about hot dog prices and beer are too much but i dont think there should be asst. coaches that are in charge of diiferent areas of a program plus i hope the have rotating conference schedules.

All the college FB games I have been to they never sold beer. I always have to run to the parking lot at halftime and do a kegstand or shotgun a couple!

I like being able to hire coaches just like in the ESPN College Hoops game.

Yeah the ability to hire asst coaches would be nice. certain coaches would run certain offenses and defenses.
