Do you think NCAA football will ever return?

[Gambo187]

That makes too much sense. I think they are hestitant because it goes against their business model. In general they've been more prone in the past to change the sport to something different rather than not include known personalities.

Something that may help get the ball more rolling. PAC12 makes a proposal:

I know snoop dog is making a huge push online. He has some YouTube videos where he is using 2014 version of team builder teams and has a friend who has recently done some game play videos promoting to go and vote to bring the game back. Go vote!

Well maybe it's because they lost the NCAA license in 2013 after NCAA 14 came out.

Did they lose it? Or did both sides see the law suit writing on the wall and parted ways? The NCAA is all about making money. If EA could make a game, and eliminate the chance of being sued, the NCAA would do it.

We'll have to wait and see what happens but I don't expect we'll ever see another NCAA game, which really sucks because in many ways, I preferred college to pro, at least in game form. It was so much fun building nothing programs into powerhouses.

I feel the same way. I couldn't care less about having accurate player #/likenesses.
