I think Buffalo starts off as a 2*, but I could be wrong. Beating a 5 or 6 is crazy either way. My Utah State Dynasty the goals were always have a winning season and receive a bowl bid both years that I was a 1*.

You might want to keep the dynasty going and try a different team. A change of venue might be good for you.
I agree with...alot of times If you build up a crappys school. The big dogs will be calling for ya. Alot of times the bigger schools will be down. That what makes so fun to go there and build them back up.

I could understand if I was coaching Notre Dame and was fired but it's Buffalo. Considering that they were a 1-10 team just a few years ago, two 7-5 seasons can't be that bad (with 2 bowl appearances).

Oh well, now I know what I have to do. I wish EA would do more personal (team based) goal system, that's some what possible/realistic.

Re: They Fired Me

You got screwed! If you have a winning record with Buffalo, that's an accomplishment. Not to mention it takes about 3 years to get some handy recruits in there who can contribute. You were fired way too quickly imo.

2 things:

Buffalo is a 2 star program to start.

And

if you were never offered a contract extension, you technically were never fired, your contract ended.

I get what you are saying and I agree that the goals for different teams should be adjusted. I was just saying from they way they stand now failing 8 out of 9 will get you fired. But I do wonder if beating your rival those three years would have saved your job.
