College Football 25 provides plenty of challenges to undertake, but few are as varied as those presented in Dynasty mode. To reach the top, you need the best coach upgrades, which we’ve highlighted for you here.
Dynasty mode in College Football 25 requires a delicate balance of nurturing the players in your team and getting the most out of them, while also keeping an eye on the future with recruitment. Striking that balance is difficult, but we’re here to help with a selection of the best coach upgrades you should prioritize.
| Name | Archetype | Benefit |
| Always be Crootin’ | Recruiter | Additional starting interest, available per position. |
| Magnetic Personality | Recruiter | Additional interest for every 10 hours spent, available per position. |
| Star Maker | Talent Developer | Faster XP gains for starters, available per position. |
| Put In Work | Motivator | Off-season training boost, available per position. |
| Last Dance | Strategist | Chance of instant commit when offering a scholarship to a player who has you as their top school. |
| Locked In | Motivator | Players start the fourth quarter ‘hot’ in close games, available per position. |
The six coach upgrades in the table above are my choices for what you should focus on. Always be Crootin’ is a brilliant place to start, providing additional starting interest to players, and you can focus specifically on the positions you need.
Recruitment is vital in College Football 25, so it’s also worth picking up Magnetic Personality, which boosts interest for every 10 hours spent on a player. In the long term, Last Dance in the Strategist archetype should be at the top of your list, as it gives players a chance of instantly committing if you are their top school.
Of course, recruitment doesn’t count for much if you can’t get the most out of your players. Star Maker should be a top priority, too, as it provides faster XP for starters in a specific position, and Put In Work is a solid choice—especially when you have a bunch of new recruits.
When it comes to advantages in single games, the Locked In upgrade is one to grab. With it, players in the position start the fourth quarter “hot” in close games—which can provide the edge you need to take home the W.
