Coaching career of Matthew Vincent (NCAA FOOTBALL 2014)

Indiana Hoosiers new Offensive Coordinator is surprise selection!


Indiana football hasn't had a winning season since the crazy year that was 2007! After losing at least 7 games each season for 11 years, they announced for 2019 they will be adding Matthew Vincent as an offensive coordinator! Vincent is a surprise selection as he was a punter at D-II MWSU and not really a standout. However, he has recently done well at the High School level, and why not give the man a shot? It's not like the Hoosiers are risking much. They haven't been to a bowl game in years, haven't won a conference title since 1967, and the last time they were ranked was back when Bill Clinton was in his first term!

Vincent speaks after announced as coordinator

"You know, it's rare to get an opportunity to continue on in athletics. I thought I was just going to teach high school and coach high school football, but someone noticed me! I am honored to get the opportunity to coach at Indiana!

Obviously things haven't been great here since before I was born. The last bowl victory was 1991!

Now, I am not the head coach, so I won't speak out of turn. But 2019 is looking bright, and I for one cannot wait. I have no doubt we will challenge Penn State/Ohio State/Michigan State/Michigan, and definitely contend for a bowl big!"

Dynasty details

Simming to the 2019 season. I'll tweak rosters at that point if needed to balance stuff out, but I have no doubt it'll still be fairly accurate.

Sliders: AA, custom set, 9 minute quarters.

Playbook: Boise State

Scheduling: Indiana will play Kentucky OOC every single year. Past that, rules are as follows.

One Pac-12 team of equalish value.
One FCS team or One Group of 5 team of slightly better value.

If/when Indiana wins a bowl game they get to upgrade to a pre-season ranked OOC opponent from a P5 conference and no longer FCS.

So essentially:

Win a bowl game, ranked OOC opponent
Lose/no bowl game, FCS opponent or unranked G5 opponent


I'll start posting schedules and stuff tomorrow, games Wednesday!
