Madden 23 - Franchise Mode - No Offensive Coordinators available

Product: Madden NFL 23
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
Which console generation do you have? Sony PlayStation 4
What is your gamertag/PSN ID? Striker1847
Date/time issue occurred 4/5/2023
What type of issue do you have? Gameplay
Which mode has this happened in? Franchise Mode
Which part of the mode? Offline
What is your Franchise League Name? N/A
Summarize your bug The game is not generating or displaying Offensive Coordinators. I am unable to hire one (although it displayed and generated Defensive Coordinators without an issue). Without one being hired, I am unable to play the next season game. If I try, the game states I need to hire an Offensive Coordinator to continue. If I go to hire one, it constantly tells me that there is no data to display.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I have played several seasons into Franchise Mode and it didn't happen until now. I am in season 2030.
What happens when the bug occurs? Franchise Mode will not allow you to continue with that Franchise and EA advised me that I would need to start over with a new Franchise.
What do you expect to see? I expect the game to generate available Offensive Coordinators. I don't see why the game can't do this as it generates players without an issue. It seems like it is trying to force me into either playing online or joining a league. Neither are acceptable options IMO.
PS4 Crash Reporting: Please copy the text you put in the crash report here. N/A... did not crash.
What is the AMD or Nvidia Model Number of your graphics card? Why does this matter? It isn't a graphics card issue.
Enter RAM memory size in GB Why does this matter? I don't have issues with slow or glitchy game play.

I’m having the exact same issue.
The franchise will not progress because there are no offensive coordinators to hire.
It just says “There is no data to display” when trying to hire the OF and the franchise can no longer progress.

Same on PC in the 2028 Season now.
After looking around if I can release another Teams OC so that i can hire him I found that almost 30 percent of the league are also out of Offensive Coordinators and it happend even before the 2028 season. The game seems to just not give you new coaches - neither OC nor DC - when one retires?!

Unless you have a free account or a buddy that isn't already in the league with you, you are probably stuck. If you do have one of those, you can invite the free/buddy account into the franchise and then fire another teams coordinator and hire them on the player team that needs them. Offline franchises, I think you are just stuck.

I just experienced the same thing, but it worked out! I know if you enjoy franchise mode, simulating an entire season may make your teeth cringe, but that’s what I had to do in year 2029. Coaches became available at the end of the season as expected and I was able to continue you on with the mode.

Having this issue for the second time.
I simmed through an entire season and it fixed. But 1 year later it did it again.
I just drafted a 1st round QB and dont want to throw away his progression by simming again.

I had to fast forward to the next season. Then it generated new coordinators.

Just an FYI, I tried deleting my D coordinator to see if I could hire him for the offense ( since all the coordinators have offensive and defensive information listed).
Not only did in not work, I only got one choice for D coordinator.
BTW, I was starting 2030 when the problem cropped up.

I have Xbox. Sounds like a lot but it worked: So I was a coach when it happened. I went to staff management and looked at which team had a OC. Retired my coach and then chose “create new character”. Create either a Coach or GM and takeover the team I found. Fire their OC and then retire my character again. Then rejoin your team and that OC you fired should be available

Having the same issue on PS5. Cannot start the 2030 season without an OC. I'll be curious to know if this gets fixed or if it gets brushed under the rug. Has someone posted to their twitter yet? I'm sure there's thousands of people running into the same issue. Getting people not to buy Madden 24 might spark an interest in fixing this issue.
