Does anyone know how the coaching contracts and job offers work in the online dynasty? For example, can I have job offers in my 2nd year of a 3 year contract? That's just one example, anything else is appreciated.

Coaching contracts/OL dynasty
About to start an OL dynasty with several friends and we are trying to set up ground rules for coaching changes, tenure, etc.
Does anyone know how the coaching contracts and job offers work in the online dynasty? For example, can I have job offers in my 2nd year of a 3 year contract? That's just one example, anything else is appreciated. -
Re: Coaching contracts/OL dynasty
Coaching contracts feature is not enabled in online dynasty. Nor can you get conference invites either.Comment

Re: Coaching contracts/OL dynasty
Aghhhh. Yea I knew about the conference invites. Didn't know that about the contracts not being in. Ok, so you guys know if there are job offers at all in OL dynasty?Comment

Re: Coaching contracts/OL dynasty
Ive simmed through 2 seasons on my online dynasty and no offers. This does not mean they are not in but it doesn't appear that they are. Because of this I have started development on an addition of PocketScout College Football. It is called Coaching Contract. In it at the end of each season you enter some info and it will determine how successful your season was and determine if you need to be fired, put on the hot seat for next year of offered a job with a new school.NCAA 2014: Current DynastyComment

Very nice pocketscout! Any clue to when it will go live?Ive simmed through 2 seasons on my online dynasty and no offers. This does not mean they are not in but it doesn't appear that they are.

Can anyone confirm whether job offers exist in OL dynasty? My concern is being stuck with the same school for the length of our dynasty and we are starting out with a pool draw of the bottom 25 teams.Comment

Re: Coaching contracts/OL dynasty
Im actually pretty close to finishing it up. If i finish it this afternoon I will pull down the update i sent into apple for v1.2 and just reupload with the Coaching Contract feature included. It will not be %100 perfect in this release but it will be 85% of the way there and after some more testing ill have it tuned out very well. Right now I am going through at the end of a season and just checking the match. The equations are built and I am just trying to find any glaring issues.NCAA 2014: Current DynastyComment

Nice, Scout! I look forward to using it, with your permission of course. Let us know when you upload.Ive simmed through 2 seasons on my online dynasty and no offers.

As for the question of OD coaching contracts and being stuck with a team, there are no official contracts periods...no offers/terminations. For whatever reason, EA seems completely adverse to putting termed contracts into their online career modes.
You don't have to be stuck with one school for the duration of the OD however. You can have the commish change your team as often as you like at anytime during the year. I'm most or my ODs the commish allows lateral job changes only at the beginning of the offseason.Comment

Re: Coaching contracts/OL dynasty
PocketScout forgive me if I sound ignorant with this, but if there are no coaching job offers/fires, and there are no conference invites then doesn't this kind of kill online dynasty? I don't understand how you can fix this kind of thing.
Maybe I'm missing something.Comment

Re: Coaching contracts/OL dynasty
just an idea: If you could make it easier or harder to get fired at certain schools that would be sweet. For example, have the user input what school they are at and then have some sort of weighted system or multiplier that increases the likelihood of being fired from UT, Fla, Bama, ND, etc., while schools like UNT, UNC, ULaLa will give you a longer look.Ive simmed through 2 seasons on my online dynasty and no offers.

Re: Coaching contracts/OL dynasty
Not ignorant at all. Its less noticeable for most in NCAA because its aspect is so small compared to the experience as a whole. For Madden it completely kills online franchise because contracts and trade logic are a huge part of the game that they are supposedly leaving out again this year.Comment

Re: Coaching contracts/OL dynasty
You can still change teams, but no matter what you do you will not get fired or job offers. The app will take your performance from the season and determine how successful you were and then either fire you and give you a list of lesser schools with job openings that you can take. If you performance was bad but not enough to get fired you will be on the hot seat and have a higher chance of getting fired next season if you dont preform up to standards. Then if you do have a good year it will show you openings from schools that could be an upgrade.
With that said you will still have to manually change you team. This app will just have the logic for determining how you did and listing jobs you can change too.
Current prestige will be factored into how well you must do to retain your job.just an idea: If you could make it easier or harder to get fired at certain schools that would be sweet.

. Have you ever considered intergrating it, if possible, on the consoles themselves as DLC?
