I just finished my first year at Arkansas State undefeated. My HB won the Heisman after scoring 40 rushing TDs, my QB threw for 80 TD and my top WR had 3,000 yard receiving. It was basically the best single season in the history of the NCAA. Granted I was in the Sunbelt, but still. We beat an undefeated Houston team in our bowl game and I really looked forward to a successful 2^nd year. So, sure enough I get offered a new contract in the off-season. Rather than sign the contract, I backed out just to see what other jobs were out there. I HAD NO INTENTION OF NOT RE-SIGNING. Nevada and one other school that I can’t recall were the only schools available to me. However, the Nevada job had what looked like a “watch” icon on it. I clicked on the Nevada job and it said something like they were considering their options…basically weren’t gonna offer me a contract just yet. The other school didn’t have a watch icon, but wasn’t interested in signing me. Anyhow, when I backed out and tried to go back and sign my contract at Arkansas State I couldn’t find it. I looked through all the screens and options, but could not locate anything that had to do with re-signing at Arkansas State. Keep in mind that auto-save was on…so I was just then beginning to realize that I was screwed. The only option I had was to advance to the next step, Players Leaving. So, I progressed to Players Leaving and a warning came up stating that I didn’t have a contract so the CPU would look for my best option and sign me there. I had no choice but to hit OK. So after it progressed I am suddenly at Kansas State University. WTF!!!??

Yes, I am pissed off about this. My QB was coming back and I was looking forward to doing big things at Arkansas State. Now, instead, I am in Manhattan, Kansas.

I’m about to simulate the season and try to get back to Arkansas State somehow.
