Re: How is your dynasty going

2014: Assistant Quarterbacks Coach at the University of Texas at San Antonio

UTSA Roadrunners, 10-4 (8-1) Conference-USA Champions

Bowl Game
Liberty Bowl vs. #14 Tennessee Volunteers
Lost 38-45

Statistics
Passing Leaders
Carter, QB, r-Sr: 305 of 500, 4,117 yards, 27 TD/24 INT
Robinson, QB, r-Fr: 6 of 13, 55 yards, 1 TD/2 INT

Notes:
Carter was efficient throughout the season, but was very turnover prone. Led the nation in interceptions, but broke every major UTSA passing record this season.

Robinson came in during mop-up time, but generally did not impress.

Rushing Leaders
Glasco, RB, r-Sr: 294 carries, 1,739 yards, 16 TD
Williams, RB, So: 68 carries, 679 yards, 6 TD
Armstrong, RB, r-Sr: 44 carries, 253 carries, 1 TD
Carter, QB, r-Sr: 101 carries, 249 yards, 1 TD

Notes:
Glasco was our workhorse throughout the season after Williams went down for 6 weeks with an injury. Before that, they were splitting carries. Glasco finished 2nd in the nation in rushing and had the best season for a running back in UTSA history.

Williams provided the lightning to Glasco’s thunder. He impressed early on before suffering a foot injury, sidelining him for 6 weeks. He returned later in the season, but Glasco still got the majority of the carries.

Armstrong was a solid #2 once Williams went down, but didn’t do anything spectacular. Carter also provided solid scrambling ability when the pocket broke down.

Receiving Leaders
Jones, WR, r-Sr: 75 receptions, 1,219 yards, 6 TD
Morgan, TE, r-Jr: 59 receptions, 774 yards, 6 TD
Mack, WR, r-Sr: 29 receptions, 474 yards, 7 TD
Grubb, WR, Jr: 26 receptions, 388 yards, 3 TD

Notes:
Kam Jones continued his excellent UTSA career by breaking his own records from last season. He had a slow start to the season, but caught fire by the fourth game and was unstoppable since then. The trio of Carter/Glasco/Jones was one of the best in the nation statistically.

Morgan was a reliable TE who always managed to catch tough passes in traffic. He suffered a bought of the drops in the later part of the season, but had a huge performance in the bowl game versus Tennessee, especially on the last (unsuccessful) drive. A couple of his drops were wide-open touchdown catches.

Mack and Grubb were solid #2/3 options behind Jones. They alternated roles, but Grubb primarily played in the slot. Mack led the team in touchdown catches primarily because of Jones’ slow start to the season, where Mack caught the majority of his touchdowns.

Defensive Leaders
Johnston, S, r-Sr: 89 tackles, 6 TFL, 1 sack, 1 INT, 7 deflections, 1 FF
Wade, S, Sr: 69 tackles, 2 TFL, 5 INT, 2 deflections
Rogers, DE, r-Sr: 40 tackles, 21 TFL, 12 sacks

Recruiting
Note:
As assistant quarterbacks coach, I let the CPU do all of the recruiting so no house rules applied this year.

Top Signees
4* OT Kyle Rucker
3* S Kevin Abrams
3* RB Eric Williams
3* DT Darius Hardy
3* QB Chad Stanley

Transfers
DE Corey Smith, r-Fr – Arizona State
TE Desean Smith, So – LSU
WR Malachi Dupre, Fr – LSU
DT Jay Arnold, So – Texas A&M

Notes:
I was shocked when I saw Smith and Dupre transfer to UTSA. While they’ll both redshirt in 2015 due to transfer rules, they will be huge pieces to the offense in 2016.

Around the Nation
Heisman
Winner: Trevone Boykin, QB, r-Jr, TCU, 3054 Pass, 32 TD, 7 INT, 816 Rush, 8 TD
2. Todd Gurley, RB, Jr, Georgia

4. Jameis Winston, QB, r-So, Florida State
5. Bryce Petty, QB, r-Sr, Baylor

Re: How is your dynasty going

Scouting the Nation
The 2088 season has ended, signing day is a few weeks from now, time to look back at what transpired.
Halfway through his record shattering 10 year, $500M contract it's safe to say that Vince White has met expectations. "63-10 [2086 victory over LSU that ended the Tigers 11 game win streak in the series] was worth the contract alone," said a booster. All White has done is go 63-6, win two National Championships, two SEC Championships, two Sugar Bowls, two Cotton Bowls and a Citrus Bowl. And in case anyone has forgotten, which White rarely lets you do, he also won two National Championships as the QB for Arkansas in the 50s under legendary Coach Bill Williams.

Let's go back five years, it another disappointing season for Nick Harris at Alabama [9-4 the horror], and a near booster mutiny forced Harris to resign after 20 years. "Ten wins a year makes you the greatest at Baylor, but here we expect more," says radio play by play man Ken Wilson, "the way people walk you'd think we were a basement dweller, but at the same time, two conference championships in 40 years is unacceptable!"

The resignation of Nick Harris was the first domino to fall, as Alabama boosters had already publicly revealed their 18 month effort to raise a half billion dollars to lure Vince White from Notre Dame. Alabama is back atop the football world, and will stay as long as White will. But we have to look at what happened in that 2083 season.

In 2082, Zach Archie took over a UCLA team that hadn't won 10 games in 15 years and was six years removed from a winning season. In just two years he won a Pac 12 championship, upset Miami (more on that later), a game everyone said UCLA had no chance, and held a third quarter lead in the National Championship game against Arkansas. Archie spent six years in the 70s coaching FAU, managed to win 5 games once, when UCLA hired him most people thought it was a good, if not desperate hire.

That 2083 campaign turned Archie into a hot name, and UCLA into a stepping stone. With Vince White letting out a "Roll Tide", Notre Dame lured Archie to South Bend. A humbled UCLA, fresh off a National Championship appearance looked to Houston and plucked Mike Ward, the 47 year old coach with a single season of experience has a Head Coach.

The first thing Ward uttered at his introductory press conference was, "UCLA is a destination," at the very least it seemed like he would stick around for more than two years.

A Stepping Stone No More

From 2070 to 2085, USC won 11 Pac 12 Championships and a National Championship, the Trojans were the undisputed Kings of the West Coast. That 2083 Pac 12 Championship was UCLA's first in 37 years. The Bruins have hardly been a power and before they shocked Miami in the 2083 Sugar Bowl, the Bruins biggest bowl win was a 2067 victory over Nebraska in the Alamo Bowl. In just half a decade, Mike Ward established UCLA as a power.

The Bruins have won as many Pac 12 Championships as their cross town rivals, they've won a Rose Bowl, two Fiesta Bowls and San Francisco Bowl. Finally, Ward led the Bruins to their first National Championship in 134 years.

The Pac 12 Championship game was a de facto playoff game against 11-1 Oregon State, when the dust settled on Championship Weekend, UCLA came up as #1. A big 38-14 win against ACC Champ Virginia Tech in the Fiesta Bowl led to a National Championship game against Ohio State.

Ohio State Head Coach Tom Jackson had been modestly successful in his first 10 seasons: 5 top 10 rankings, 3 Big 10 Championships, 4 Big 10 East Division Championships, and a Rose Bowl Win. In 2083, the Buckeyes lost in the playoffs to Arkansas, and never looked back. Starting in 2084, Jackson led his team to a 41 game winning streak and two National Championships. In 2086 UCLA and Ohio State met in the Fiesta Bowl with the Bruins winning 28-21.

Here they were again playing for the National Championship. After being tied at 21 midway through the 2nd quarter, UCLA would score the next 21 points and put away Ohio state 52-24, as Nick Jackson accounted for 449 yards (247 passing/202 rushing). After the game Mike Ward exclaimed that UCLA was here to stay.

Final Thoughts

Could Zach Archie have won a National Championship at UCLA? We'll never know, Archie is 55-11, but has been winning with Vince White's recruits. It remains if this year's 10-3 record is part of a down trend. For the record, Mike Ward is 56-12, but his National Championship trumps Archie, for now.

Sooner or later Graham Hicks and the Miami Hurricanes are going to break through. In 8 seasons Hicks has had Miami ranked in the top 10 every year. Hicks teams have averaged 12 wins a year. It's not the wins that people are concerned about its the 4 ACC Championship game losses that have kept the Hurriances out of the playoffs, his 0-2 playoff record doesn't help things out. You don't fire a coach who wins 12 games a year, but something has to give.

Way too early predictions for 2089: Alabama storms back to take the SEC, Penn State finally beats both Ohio State and Michigan in the same year, UCLA keeps winning, Florida State keeps a 1 loss Miami out of the playoffs. A classic Rose Bowl sees UCLA beating Penn State, while Alabama wins another Sugar Bowl. The Tide are too much for UCLA to handle and Vince White's squad closes out the decade as the 80s dynasty.

Re: How is your dynasty going

I am starting a new dynasty with California using Pasta Padre's 2013 rosters. I want draft classes for my M25 Detroit Lions CFM. I open the season at Northwestern and have a tough schedule otherwise (A strength of schedule.) I'm pretty sure I face Ohio State. Having a yearly goal of nine wins is not sounding likely.

Dynasty is great ..just have to check it on this game.

Re: How is your dynasty going

Alright so back to my Tech dynasty. With Matt DeLuca gone the search for a new starter was on. The job fell to (RS) Junior Brian Tate. So here are his 2 seasons at the helm.

Year 1 (2026): Having an inexperienced started was easy to hide behind my fantastic HB Daniel Jones, until we have to throw... This was an adventure. Week 3 vs Army who was ranked #5 got a huge lead on my early, some where around 28-7. I stick in the backup and he leads us to a victory and keeps the win streak alive. A couple weeks later we faced Florida in AT&T Stadium, a game we won literally by 6 inches. They caught a Hail Mary but the WR put the ball in his left hand instead of his right and we survive, win streak intact. Smooth sailing until the conference championship (I had changed the dynasty to tiers for more of a challenge). We face Missouri, a team we had beaten by 21 earlier in the season. The first half was brutal for both offenses, but defenses throw shutouts through 2 quarters. In the 3rd the Offenses come to life and with :07 remaining Mizzou has the ball at my 10. They decide to throw and my backside CB blows coverage and the guy is wide open. No more luck, win streak over, NC hopes dashed. Mizzou wins 34-28. We blow out Pittsburgh in the Sugar Bowl. The win streak finished at 88.

Year 2 (2027): Tate's senior year and it went better than the first. We rolled through games and with our home win streak still intact at 57 going into our next to last home game vs TCU. We had a chance to tie the NCAA record set by Miami, but the Frogs had something else to say. A lucky pick 6 on a ball that my QB was hit and threw 2 yards gave them the lead. Trying to take it back with :10 left, Tate throws another pick 6. Miami's record holds at 58, Tech fall short at 57. We then had #5 Oklahoma to take our anger out on and won easily by 30. Next was #3 Texas A&M, another game dominated, Tech is #1 again. We are National Champs again. Sadly Tate will for a while at least, have lost more games than Chris Moore (QB Yrs 1-2) Corey Waters (QB 3-4) and Matt DeLuca (QB 5-7) combined. Combined they lost 1.

88 game winning streak?!? I can't imagine playing a dynasty where I made it so easy to win. I wouldn't see the point, but to each their own.

I just finished my 22nd season in my current dynasty and I have had 1 undefeated season (and it was my only season w/o at least 2 losses) and I was beyond THRILLED with that season! Since it's so rare and extremely difficult to do, it makes it that much more satisfying when I can do it. If I did it nearly every season it'd just be a ho-hummer for me.

Attached is my yearly coaching record thus far (the rank is the end of season ranking).

Re: How is your dynasty going

I've just started year 2027 with my coach.

my coaching career so far.



Career record 145-46, 56-11 with Texas Tech.

2026 season was so close to being a huge season, but lost to Oklahoma twice in the year. once in the regular season 37-33 after they scored with 14 seconds to go.

Then in the Big XII Championship(I have added UTEP and UTSA to make it 12 teams, and it's Texas teams in the south, the rest in the North), My team was not very good, turning it over 4 times and losing 38-24.

2027 season started with my team being one of the highest rated teams(#2, also as a 95 overall, 99 offense, 92 defense ratings)

New QB starting for my team, although more than capable being a 5th year senior and a 96 overall(scrambler). My offense is stacked with 5th year seniors starting. 7 of the 11 are RS seniors, 1 RS Soph, 2 RS Juniors, 1 true junior.

I have true freshman starting at MLB, and my 2nd, 3rd and 4th CB are true freshmen as well.

I've played the first 3 games, all against ranked opponents.
Beat #12 Georgia Tech in the Texas Kickoff Classic in Houston, won 37-36 in a close match.

had 2 weeks off to prepare to face the only team that beat me in 2026, #23 Oklahoma. They definitely lost some of their talent, I was able to pull out and win 45-33 in Norman.

Then traveled to Austin to face the #7 Longhorns, was behind in the first, but a strong 2nd quarter pull us ahead, where we stayed to win it 35-28.

I currently have 3 more ranked teams on the schedule, #21 Alabama(next game, first home game of the year), #2 TCU(has won 3 NC in past 5 years), then an away game against #8 Nembraska. I've played very well at home, currently the longest home winning streak at 20 games.

I was playing on All-American for the 76 wins, I bumped it to Heisman after that and it's been much more fun. I also changed up my sliders to give the CPU more of a shot. I just won my last game by 1 against a not very good Boise State. I honestly never got sick of the winning, it was just winning big that sucked.

Re: How is your dynasty going

Just finished year one with updated 2015 rosters for the firs time, haven't played in awhile.

Lane Kiffen was hired by Tennessee. I nearly died laughing.

Re: How is your dynasty going

Starting a CAP dynasty with the made up Florida Southern Sharks. Should be fun. Head over to Dynasty HQ if you would like to join in. I am looking to go from a Sun Belt team to a SEC powerhouse

[smokeydays23]

Re: How is your dynasty going

About a week ago I started a dynasty with Georgia State. Going to look to move to a big school by the time everything is all said and done.

Year one, I lost every non-conference game, but went 7-1 in sun belt play, won the sun belt, and lost in the R&L Carriers New Orleans bowl to UTSA. Finished the year with a B coach prestige, went 7-6, and had several offers from Alabama, Ohio State, and Texas A&M to be a coordinator. I turned them all down, not wanting to have to stay as a coordinator for 3-5 seasons before I could move on to a head coaching gig. So, I stayed at GSU.

Second year underway, got destroyed by Georgia, and just won my second game and Sun Belt opener vs NMSU.

All my best players hold every statistical record for a game, season, and career thus far. Recruiting is also awesome, as several 3 and 4 star guys are interested in coming. Fun dynasty. Hopefully I can even get an 8 win season.

Re: How is your dynasty going

After a disappointing 5-7 finish to year 2, I left Georgia State and joined
Urban Meyer's staff in Colombus and became Ohio State's offensive coordinator. JT Barrett is the started after Braxton Miller left, and I have four incredibly talented RBs at my disposal like Ezekiel Elliot, Curtis Samuel, Warren Ball and Brionte Dunn. We start Year 3 as the #4 team in the nation.

Re: How is your dynasty going

So back with another update in my Texas Tech dynasty.

For 2028 Joe Smith a former ATH convered QB was named the starter. He struggled throughout the year but our defense stepped up and led us to 13-0 and to the NC vs Wisconsin. Smith struggled, throwing 6 picks and 1 that ultimately cost us the game. We lost 35-33 on a failed 2 point conversion. On to 2029 I guess.
