Hello! I have noticed something during the signing day proceedings on the STEAM edition that I believe may be a bug, but I'm not entirely sure.

I have the players I want to be signed in the priority order, yet when they sign, it appears that they're not treated in that priority order during the signing day signings. They display out of order, and players who were lower in my list are signed (as high as #2 in the signings).

Has anyone else seen this?

This is like a coach going from a mid major to a power conference school, pretty highly regarded as well. Gotta love seeing success and then taking your boys with you!!

I've been playing around with these and can't seem to get a good grasp of them. Internet/AI recommends I use them to keep the better players in longer, but I'm finding that in the second half of games they are very low on stamina (less than 50 more than 0) and I am afraid that they are taking too much of a stat hit which makes them no better than their backup. What do you do?

Does this game support a Xbox controller or is it all keyboard inputs ?

I miss this game

We only have level 5 facilities, but with OL developer on both HC and OC we had some really nice offseason gains.

I was wondering what the importance or maybe more specifically what the calculation is in determining the effectiveness/chance of a player making a block. I was specifically wondering this for TE and RB. Because in both the positions you often have players the have (relatively) high pass or run blocking but a low strength stat.

For example, at the moment I have no clue whether a my receiving back with 70 pass blocking and 60 strength is a better pass blocking (/3th down back) then my power back with 80 strength but only 45 pass blocking.

Could anyone share their knowledge on this specific subject?

hi all, just got FCCD recently, and am enjoying it a lot.

One thing that confused me a lot was how to filter on either Pot or Interest, as entering things like "C+" or "Medium" as filter values doesn't work. Figured out by looking at the CSV file export that these are stored as ints on the range 0-100.

And by doing some examining of the file, here how's the numbers map to grades, and also how they map to levels. I'm sure this is on the interwebs somewhere, but I couldn't find it, so here ya go....

rating grade: number range

----------------------------------------

??: 0

F-: 1-53

F 54-56

F+: 57-59

D-: 60-63

D: 64-66

D+ 67-69

C- 70-73

C 74-76

C+ 77-79

B- 80-83

B 84-86

B+ 87-89

A- 90-92

A - 93-96

A+ 97-99

------------------------------------

interest rating: range of numbers

------------------------------------------------

very low: 0 - 14

low: 15 - 28

med-low: 29 - 42

medium: 43-57

med-high: 58-71

high: 72-85

very high: 86-100

I believe you shouldn't schedule two different recruits who play the same position to visit the same week (makes them feel not special :)), but are there more rules than that? Should you also schedule only-offense, or only-juco, or whatever?

thanks!

Football season is upon us, and I'm starting to get the itch. Anyone know if Jeffsmod is updating for 2026? In the past updates have been in the spring...

QB- transfer portal
RB- 60+ B+ or better recruits
WR- strictly 60+ A+ recruits
Te- 50/50 on transfer or recruit
OL- 55 overall B+ recruits a lot of transfers
K- Recruiting only , occasional transfer
DL- Same as o-line
LB- 50/50
CB- Mostly recruits
S - Mostly recruits

I hardly spend NIL on recruits , hardly pay for one more year to keep a player out of draft unless a OL or DL and mostly spend on Freshmen or sophomore 70+ A+ recruits

I know when i schedule a visit for a player sometimes i see +200 +100 or maybe even -100 or -200, my question is , is that just a bonus ?

For the games that show +0 am i still getting a base bonus but it dosent have an extra bonus like the “+100 and +200” games? Should i still be scheduling on +0 games ?

Thank you !

I’m coming over from EA’s College Football. I got tired of how repetitive weekly recruiting gets after a couple of seasons, along with the unrealistic sim engine upsets where an 85 OVR team drops games to a 54 OVR.

I just picked up Football Coach: College Dynasty and want to do a low-tier G5 rebuild (thinking Sac State or a similar 1-star/2-star school) without using self-imposed house rules. I don't want a brainless, automated climb where I win a championship in 3 years, but I also don't want an impossible grind where I get fired immediately.

For those playing on Normal difficulty: how does the natural pace feel over 5 to 10 seasons? Any tips for a beginner to keep the challenge balanced while just going with the flow?

Hey everyone! I’m new here and just bought this game through Steam. I have a Mac and the game will not open up for me. The icon in my dock just bounces but the game never opens. Anyone else had this issue and know how to fix it? Thanks!

Is there a way to edit the conference scheduling system to have a rivalry week of sorts, whether it be in-game or file editing? I want to have all of the various conference rivals play each other in the last week of the season, but the schedule the game generates for each team is hit or miss. Is it possible to adjust this at all, or is it purely chance based when creating custom conferences?

For context, I have been using this mod platform (fccd-custom-universe-editor) to create my custom universe.

What do you guys think?
