The Yearbook: your dynasty, written down

When the year closes, the game writes it up: your signature win and toughest loss pulled from the real game log, the hardware you collected, your recruiting class and its identity, the rivalry recap, and how prestige and job security moved. At the bottom sits the part players argue with: an honest A–F evaluation of your coaching, computed from the same expectation math the sim itself uses to decide your job security — so the grade and the hot seat can never tell different stories.

The Yearbook is where four-year careers land. Graduating seniors get send-offs built from their actual career — the day you found them at a showcase, the redshirt year, the breakout, the milestones, the captaincy, senior day, and eventually the draft round. Every player profile carries that same timeline while they play, which is why losing a great one to graduation hits harder here than in most sims: you can read the whole arc back.

Past seasons rebuild onto a Yearbook shelf in your Records, alongside a Dynasty Timeline that compresses decades into one scroll — title years, promotions, the season everything broke. For coaches who want the keepsake version, an optional supporter tier adds a printable Dynasty Almanac: your entire program history as a single offline document. The shelf itself is free, like the rest of the core game — it pairs naturally with long dynasty saves and rivalries that span eras.
