How is the "Race for the Heisman"

Is there a Heisman trophy presentation in dynasty mode?

If you want to follow along with mine, going through it will answer a lot of questions. I personally like this mode more then Dynasty, which has always seemed more tedious to me then anything. But some people will prefer dynasty. They're seperate modes, so you have a choice.

I'd be interested in knowing that too. Honestly, I always created myself in dynasty before this year anyway, but I was excited about the additional presentation aspects offered by RFTH mode. I might even be willing to sacrifice recruiting for the life of the RFTH player in the name of realism, but I'm not willing to sacrifice draft class exports for those 4 seasons as thats where all the real NCAA players are.

As a result, I might toy with RFTH just to experience it, but I won't benefit as I'll be doing dynasty to get my recruiting and draft classes.

It coulda been implemented much better.

The simple fact is that this is a player only mode. As a college player I shouldn't be able to recruit or change the depth chart unless i break into the depth chart. The only thing I'm disappointed in from what you guys are saying is that you can't export draft classes.

What happens if you don't win the Heisman?....i just want to know how linear it is...I like different modes and will try them all out...i have never done more than 5 seasons in a dynasty anyways...

Nothing different happens if you don't win the Heisman. Although, your fan mail indicates you did win it, even though you didn't. After your final season you can export the player to madden, or turn it into a dynasty mode.
