To level up coaches, players must collect XP. There are several ways to collect XP in College Football 25. These goals can be based on game performance, recruiting, stats and draft performance.

With game performance, individual goals include gaining a certain number of yards or turnovers or beating your team's biggest rival. Each goal has its own XP boost, which will be small or large depending on its difficulty. Recruiting goals can include signing a blue-chip prospect or getting the top recruiting class.

Stat goals can include national rankings, reaching a certain number of yards or ranking in the top national statistics. Finally, draft goals involve players from your team being selected in particular rounds of the NFL draft.

How to Unlock New Coaching Abilities in EA College Football 25?

But what does coaching level mean or do? It's not a meaningless trophy to reward game players. It has functional use in terms of coaching abilities.

Coaches in the game choose an archetype with special abilities and skills. However, to qualify for a particular archetype, coaches must complete certain achievements. For example, to be an elite recruiter, the coach must sign two top-five recruiting classes. Once that prerequisite is completed, the coach can use Coach Points to purchase the archetypes. Coach points come with leveling up.

Purchasing an archetype will unlock new coaching abilities and new coaching carousel choices while creating more XP opportunities. Although you must spend some of your Coach Points to buy these opportunities, they'll help you level up faster.
