Honestly, if they just ATTEMPTED a second broadcast, I would give them a pass on the commentary the first year. They could use the same crew - just giving different overlays, music, etc. I think it would add a lot, and would seem to be pretty easy to implement.

Coaching carousel would be the greatest thing ever though.

I would have thought this was already in the game. College Hoops had this years ago. This should be the norm. I guess not.

I don't think we're getting any big announcements at E3. If they had another big feature, they would have included it in the demo. Not necessarily in the playable part (you couldn't "play" a demo of coaches carousel), but it would have been included with their Features screens. There's just too much exposure with the demo to not mention a big feature like that.

I'd love to be wrong though. I hope I'm wrong.

Well, that's going to do it for this blog. If you've made it this far I'm proud of you. It takes a hardcore fan to read this much about a play call screen. We've got a lot more to talk about in the coming weeks as we get closer to July. There are some big ticket items still to be discussed, but I wanted to take some time and break down the most important screen in the game and also talk about how involvement with the community can help make the game the best it can be.

id love it if they did the ABC presentation and maybe like some less known announcers for the smaller regional match ups. because for 1.abc is espn as well, and they still use ncaa wipes as well as the overlays, only real difference is a lil music i believe and the abc sign. What i do hope tho is in the actual game the broadcast is more like ncaa basketball where when its a time out or in footballs case a td is scored they act like they are going to a commercial break, que the music and show replays and score overlay! Thats when it really feels like a tv broadcast, what they have now doesnt feel like that so much.

And yea coaching carousel would be perfect for us sim multi yr dynasty players, and it shouldnt even be hard to put in! It would make playing dynasty's with weaker teams even better
