Can't hire head coach

mochuck · 09-29-2015, 09:33 PM

I posted this on the quick questions thread.. but didn't hear anything

I simmed a season and started an expansion team... Under my manager

profile, I picked GM Only... when I took over the expansion team.. I'm listed

as GM/Head Coach... and I can't hire a head coach to replace me.... is there

something I'm doing wrong here?

I tried this with a couple of different teams, and it seems with expansion teams you default to the GM and head coach roles even if you opted to only be GM. But in my tests I was able to hire a head coach simply by going to Free Agents and hiring a head coach (can be found next to the arrow in the image below).

I wasn't sure if you weren't able to find where the head coaches were, or you just didn't have the option to hire any of them, so I included this picture of where the staff free agents can be found (if you know where they are already, then please disregard).

I have the same issue. I didn't see the "GM only" option when I set up my expansion team. And now I'm a month or so into the season, and I have hired a Head Coach, but I'm still listed as the HC since I can't find the option to change it.
