I Created a Dynasty | Grand Rapids Finale

In this NCAA Football 14 video, I used Grand Rapids University! The gameplay is from college football revamped, otherwise known as NCAA Football 24.

Completely agree. Wish he paced it better, could have waited 20 seasons to win our first NC.

[@alexbelbusti5302]

Loved the series can’t wait for another one. Some gameplay suggestions to make the next one better: 1) have a more balanced offense. It’s great to have a strong run game but the read option in ncaa 14 is op and makes it unrealistic when a top team plays multiple games with under 5 completions and wins comfortably 2) don’t use chew clock before the 4th quarter. I understand why you do it especially when you’re playing hours of games a day but it makes it less realistic. 3) show the other teams rosters before games. Will be nice to see how the other team stacks up, especially when you have really fast wr/cb on the other team that could cause issues. 4) show more of the game generated stuff. Loved when you showed how Hulu field stacked up against other top stadiums, so more of that and checking in on award races will help build the whole fantasy world. 5) clue in on recruiting battles and recruits going to other schools especially rivals. Recruiting was obviously less important the last couple years but would be cool to see if you lose out on a recruit who goes to Michigan and then gives you trouble. 6) no coachstradamus. Super unrealistic to know the exact play when the computer won’t audible. Thanks for a great series!!

[@thepizzagod420]

about number 2 he has a life, you know he would much prefer to not waste it by using chew clock in the 3rd quarter

[@thepizzagod420]

besides that, i agree

[@sevenletters3247]

I don't know how everyone else feels, but my jam is the struggle more than the constant winning. No shade to your success, I just love watching the problem-solving portion. I was wondering if you'd ever handcuff the buffs? It's what I do to keep my legacy more competitive. Use a school that doesn't have Cal/Tx/South as a pipeline. No OC/DC buffs. No Gameplay buffs. Only 2/3 max on recruit buffs. Only allowed to recruit from pipeline or interested players until week 14. Makes the build a much more longterm and takes all your witts to figure out how to find gems and 4star+ recruits.

[@thetexanshurtme]

I have a bit of an evil challenge In the past, my favorite challenge in NCAA has been to try and create a dynasty with these rules 1. Pick, or create a team in Texas (my personal team to use is Rice because its my favorite team) 2. Until you win a bowl game, you are ONLY allowed to recruit IN STATE 1 STARS 3. Until you win the conference, you can only recruit IN STATE 2 STARS 4. Once you win the conference, you are allowed to recruit IN STATE 3 STARS 5. You are only allowed to move to a P5 conference when you win the conference 3 times in a row (ideally, you dont even have to, as it is honestly kinda fun to be a G5 team), but the recruiting restrictions are NEVER LIFTED. only in state 3 stars allowed 6. Use hard sliders (about the same as what you used in this series) 7. You are allowed to create a new coach when you get fired (because it will happen lol) Its a BRUTAL challenge, but trust me, it is such a fun one. Every good recruit feels truly special, and every win feels super rewarding

[@thetexanshurtme]

Note: the reason you should start in Texas is because it's really the only state with a big enough recruiting pool to support a team You could also just choose any state and allow yourself to recruit in bordering states

[@thetexanshurtme]

Also, make sure to lower everyone's overalls if you start with a real school. I usually make it so my best player in year 1 is around a 63-65 overall senior

I love this series so much. It’s what I look forward to each week to keep football alive. If you do another series like this, can you do it in Missouri? It’s the only state on the mainland that only has one FBS school, and it would be neat to have an in-state rivalry with it and Mizzou. I’m a Mizzou alum, but if you made another team like Grand Rapids, I could see myself cheering for either team.

[@MrScotty2Hotty28]

Yo James!! Great series bro, looking forward to seeing you play the upcoming game. Idea: how about adding in suspensions to the dynasties? Like spin the wheel on suspensions so some players for academic/misconduct/breaking team rules have to miss a half, a game, 2 games, 4 games, or 6 games. You'd just have to put them lower on the depth chart, but I think that can keep things interesting even after your team has gotten elite. Just an idea, either way I appreciate all that you do for us bro!

[@dadwithtourettes]

Loved this series. Sad to see it go. Would love another built from scratch series where you play every game. However, imo, we peaked too early. Winning a natty in years 8/9/10 was too early for that much success imo. Would love to see you put read option restrictions on yourself and keep recruiting restrictions in place longer. Also i think not being able to red shirt players would be a worthy restriction for the next one as well. Thanks for a great series.

[@javiernovoa8756]

Great series! Sad to see it end, but with how easy the Big 10 transition was, it was time. I think the series would have been much more competitive even towards the end if you'd kept the recruiting restrictions, but I know it can't last forever. Congrats on the three-peat, hope to see another sometime.

[@danp7403]

@BordeauxYT , since you’re from the Tampa area as well.. can you do another one of these with The University of Tampa? They even used to have a program back in the day!! Please please please do it!!!

[@nicholasbova9909]

Would love to see another one of these. My idea would be to 1) make another custom school or use an FCS school and immediately put them in a power five conference to tough it out. You had GRU competitive with Michigan and ND from episode 1 so I think it wouldn't be too unreasonably brutal to do 2) only recruit players from the home state and bordering states. GRU became a juggernaut once you were able to recruit nationally so local recruiting only would help keep progression year to year gradual and extend the series

[@codyeble6764]

Great series!! but as you progressed you seemed to think the games got easier (which they did with more talent) i have a suggestion if you do another one that might keep the difficulty pretty consistent... Pick a style of play like spread offense then you can only recruit QBs and WRs that are high caliber recruits, everyone else like defense and RBs cant be recruited over 2 or 3 stars or a certain overall... Or maybe be a pass defense and just recruit corners and safeties, run defense DLine and linebackers...if that makes sense, since the RPO this series was kinda OP along with the kick returns and defense getting crazy good the last year.. also just wanted to say i appreciate the content, im also in like year 10 of a dynasty but im on 09 and i only play the games i invite recruits to and that's 1 or 2 games a season compared to you playing every game so i know the hours you are putting in! Good work

I would love to see another of these start from the bottom dynasties, but maybe adjust the sliders, although idk how the sliders work, is there one to make juking less powerful? Like one that makes the computer sniff out your jukes more often? also I think you need your recruiting nerfed, it seemed like you jumped from cupcake to elite a little too fast, would like to see a bit longer of a struggle in the middle of the pack, the last 3 seasons were just complete domination
