What would be interesting though is a drop down choice to implement an overall system/philosophy for your team.

For example, (if a user does not want to call all the plays themselves) they can set various things (like if they should pass more than run etc).
Maybe on that screen there could be a general philosophies drop-down. That would include things like West Coast, Smashmouth etc. (and there would be another drop-down for the defensive philosophy).

Then when your coaches are calling the plays on your behalf they would follow the philosophy you have set. So you still need to make sure the philosophy you have set fits in with the players you have.
There was also an interesting system in HC09 with coaches. When you signed the coaches you negotiated with them by giving up control in different areas. You could agree to release certain players or give the coaches control over what type of qb to look for etc. Not saying it has or should work exactly like hc09 but it had alot of good ideas that were more or less well implemented.
