Whenever my coordinators leave for other schools, I always track where they went in the staff moves list, and if I ever play their school I make it personal.
FYI you can only fire coordinators during conference championship week! It’s dumb but yeah that’s when you’ll need to do it. Great video as always, hope you had a Merry Christmas Max!
@ No worries bro just wanted to give you a heads up on it! Like I said it’s kinda dumb that they made the game that way, I think you should be able to fire them at any point in the offseason and then you can pick through whoever’s available at that time, or simply to the next week to see if better coordinators will be available.
can't be mad at your 5'8" WR's for not blocking 6'3" CB's. But its again just another reason why I recommend recruiting TE's like crazy. They're the best athletes on offense & can play numerous roles from Oline to wideouts to even half backs (my one 6'0" blocking TE is a power run nightmare). I do the same with Safeties on defense (as they can play CB or LB/OLB) depending on the style they are. Would highly suggest again you look into it this new upcoming recruiting class. Great episode man, these overtime games are wild.
LOVE doing that with safeties, unfortunately I already did the offseason filming BUT the bright side is I did land an awesome ATH that will be the fastest TE of all time, so maybe I use him some in the future
Coach prestige grade drops whenever you have lower grade staff or staff without tenure. I would double-check that you hired the right guy because if they didn’t accept the job, it would have randomly hired someone. Always gotta check hire staff when it starts showing up since the game does not notify you when one of your coaches leaves since contracted years mean nothing.
@ Anytime, Max. Hopefully the whole contract system gets fixed in CFB 26 because as of right now, it’s got some very large issues. You can view in recruiting the grades your team has in "my school" tab. Each grade explains what affects it such as coaching prestige. Some like "campus lifestyle" or "academic prestige" cannot be altered.
Crazy game, definitely one of the most exciting of the year. The Cajuns offense was crazy, I did a rebuilds of that team and they have some sneaky good players. Elijah Davis is a very good rb. Maybe this is an unpopular opinion but I'm not totally convinced by Jerry yet, at least not enough for him to be getting as many snaps as he got in this game. I do think he will be the qb of the future, and he is a monster in the red zone but I felt like a lot of your drives in this game had moments where you were put in bad situations due to running the ball with Jerry even when it wasn't a good look. Semonza isn't as good of a runner but he is still pretty good and I think your decision making is better with him as far as knowing when to run and when to pass. I think that will come with Jerry too though, probably just a lot of excitement to give him the ball. This was a great way to end the season though, looking forward to the next one.
I agree - sometimes a player gets treated like “a shiny new toy” and you actively play worse bc you want to see what they can do. I think that def occurred here, gonna have to learn how to balance that next year
@maxplayscfb it happens to me all the time, I think it's a natural reaction to having a ln exciting player like that on the roster. In the red zone he was absolutely lethal though, I think that is going to be be his biggest strength going forward.
How in the f$*% did you dodge that safety? That was so incredible 😂 awesome season Max! I’ve learned how to play much better after watching you! Appreciate all that you share to the community and how you teach while you play! JERRY JERRY JERRY!!!
I just looked up the all-time sack record for college football - Dantu Gardner (with 40.5 from memory) is 3rd all time, behind Jaylon Ferguson's 45 and Javon Rolland-Jones' 43.5. He'll absolutely break that next season!
When it comes to hiring coaches I personally focus on skill tree. I want recruiters. Prestige and coach level come second. Also not the week after you fire your coaches but the second week after is usually the week with best coaches to hire. With three recruiting coaches you can just about get any one.
Can you help me? My latest dynasty files are going missing. It would save everything I do. But on Christmas Eve the file disappeared. I redid everything from that last time it went missing. It saved at first. Now it’s missing again.
Are you aware when you press your corners in cover 4, it puts your outside corners in "MEG" (man everywhere they go). If you werent, this is your disclaimer.

Definitely a feature that would be cool to see is your coaching tree.
I do the same LMAO, but I go and make sure to schedule them week 1 and play the entire game 😭
Dang I gotta start doing this

Yeah I dropped the ball here again, anyways I prob already said it on one of your other comments but merry Christmas to you too!

I never miss an episode of the Ball State chronicles!!! Max also gives out great advice on recruiting too!!! Keep up the phenomenal work!!!
Awesome! Thank you for the kind words and for watching!!

Ah jeez Louise thank you, I know nothing about hiring staff

Let’s goooooo, been waiting on this! Love these videos!
More to come! Off-season tonight!

Nice! I watch you on my big screen.
That's awesome, sick to make it on the big screen!!

JERRY JERRY JERRY!!!
Thank you so much for the kind words!! I’m having a blast with ball state so super sick to know that others are enjoying it too!
Also the prestige is based on their school and their wins, but the levels means they have more coach abilities
Ahhhh gotcha gotcha
Can’t wait for next season
Same!! Gonna post a game every other day till we get thru it all!
Jerry! Jerry! Jerry!
Yeesh. Mid 4th quarter: jerry 4/4 3 tds simonza 8/9 1 td
Some of that is jet sweeps but thats definitely a battle next year.
Yeah it’ll be funny to see Semonza run because they don’t respect his legs as much but Jerry throw because they’re TOO scared of his legs
Let’s gooooo
what are ur plans for conferences? i think it’d be cool if next year if you make the playoffs ur in the big 10 or smth like that
Was planning on switching to the big 10 due to geography but yall are gonna have to see the final decision once the offseason vid drops tonight 🫡🫡

Wow, I would’ve thought someone somewhere racked up 15+ sacks for 4 straight years but awesome to know Dantu is HISTORICALLY good
Good Win! Another Bowl for Ball State! Next year, the Playoffs!
Yup!!! Just gotta have a killer offseason
Clutch
The level for the coach is what determines how far along his skill tree is while prestige will affect your school’s Coach Prestige Grade
Ahhh gotcha

No way!!! Why didn’t I know that!!

Yup, clutch speed for both

It's a custom playbook, Max made a video where he edited it I believe.
Custom built from the spread option generic playbook, available to download on Xbox under “maxplayscfb”!!
