Disappointed we lost Coach Mode

The reason I kept playing NCAA 14 for all these years is because it's the most recent football game to have a real coach mode, where you call the plays and the AI executes them. This is an absolutely huge feature for me, that I've been asking for in Madden for years, and was really hoping we would have in CFB 25, given that it was in NCAA 14.

Unfortunately, it seems EA decided not to give us this feature. This is a huge disappointment to those of us who don't want to play the coach, QB, WR, RB, DT, and CB, we just want to play the coach because we like the X's and O's of football. I'm really hoping EA will reconsider this decision and add coach mode back into CFB.

And no, the "Coach Mode" in user settings is not a coach mode, it is a pass assist. It does not handle runs, RPOs, options, scrambling, defense, or special teams, the way that Coach Mode in NCAA 14 did. That is what I'm looking for here, a NCAA 14 style coach mode.

    I agree and that's the biggest reason I'm not buying this game. That plus EA did not release it on PC. Another year I won't be spending money on EA products.

    I agree I as a coach should not have to kick off or kick field goals. Just want to be a real coach and just worry about who I put on the field and what them execute. That’s realism. So now I’m force to just super sim as a coach and just spectate and hope my coach dose good.
