New head of CFM Announced Last night
 
So for those who missed it on twitter with all the draft talk and chatter.Last night EA finally confirmed what some of us had been hearing, Kolbe is no longer head of CFM , and they introduced the new Head of CFM, whom i highly suggest hitting up ( constructively ) when we hear news on CFM as well when the game comes out. I really hope things grow large this year for CFM even with change of the guard so to speak.

He and Kolbe worked together on 16, so the only difference in leadership is that John is the lead now. I still fully believe what I said about my high hopes for CFM with John White leading, this will be the same vision going forward. John is a really cool dude, he's young and passionate about simulation, every time I talked with him it was about making things realistic and true to the NFL.

I really hope he does well, but im a little worried. I sent him a message to please consider a draft board and scrimmage options for CFM leagues. He did reply, but seemed to have no clue as to what I meant by scrimmage. I did get more specific but im worried that I had to. I thought it was well known by now many of us want an option to have meaningless games between other teams in our online leagues. Good for practice, fun, etc using the teams we've built in our leagues.

I wouldn't have known what you meant either just off of that. Were you more specific with him than that?

I wish the guy well, but I think repeated turnover in this position is bad for gamers. I think consistency of vision and commitment to the gradual realization of a stable, sustainable vision for the mode is crucial, and that's not what we're getting.

Good luck to the new guy.

I was after he asked what I meant. Told him basically the ability to play meaningless/scrimmages between other users in our leagues. Im not sure how its been overlooked to this point, that itd be great to play using the teams weve built up in just scrimmages. Its good for league longevity to play between advances, get good practice with your team or just for bragging rights between other league members you dont play ever on your schedule.

He's the same guy that worked with Kolbe on 16, he's not new.

I got excited when I saw this headline. Then I got depressed when I read that it's someone who will carry on the same vision. I cannot stand the way CFM has gone lately. Not to say this new lead will do everything the same, but if it's more XP and Drive Goals stuff, I'm going to be pretty disappointed.
