It's decently easy. I did a simulation as Tulsa's OC using a new coach (started at D Prestige), and within a season I had very high job security and got a decent prestige bump. I didn't have a chance to see how quickly that prestige bump would turn into a new job ... I think you'll probably have to stay at a higher prestige level for a little bit of time before you start getting good offers. Guess we'll have to wait and see on that.

I'm 99% sure that you're right. User vs User games will play both sides of the ball.

correct, but can you "coach mode" both sides of the ball vs a USER in OD? Where both users only call the plays and watch via the broadcast cam?

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't remember 2k Sports hyping up Coaching Carousel in College Hoops 2k7 as much as EA has done for NCAA 12. I think the folks at 2k figured that fans expected that feature to be in there in the first place. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited about the addition of coaching carousel, I just wished EA hadn't copied and pasted it from CH2k7 without any major additions like JalenTigh had pointed out.

Got a question - With Jim Tressel resigning, will anyone be editing Ohio State's coach prestige to simulate the real NCAA? If so, what's the appropriate range? I'm thinking between a D - C+ (Only C+ because the interim guy got promoted is an alumnus).

Also thinking about dropping Ohio State's overall prestige, if possible.
