What prevents this is the exclusivity agreement EA has with the NFL and the legal hurdles of making a college game. EA will not spend the money to make such a game because to them 90% of the people that would purchase the game for that AAA level franchise game are going to buy the game they put out anyway. Therefore, it doesn't make business sense to them to do so. That is the main reason we will never have a great franchise mode. Competition breeds creativity and innovation and the absence of competition breeds stagnation and a concentration on easy money.
They tried before and that was the result of Head Coach. Not enough interest to continue making the game.
