Quick Hit Football, the free-to-play online fantasy sports/RPG hybrid Kotaku profiled two months ago, has signed agreements with four more coaches to use their likenesses as opposing AIs within the game.

The coaches will head teams whose personnel and tactics conform to the types of teams they led in the NFL. Levy and Glanville, for example, would probably direct fast-paced offenses, the run and shoot for Glanville and a no-huddle pro set for Levy. Herm Edwards just plays to win the game. Hello?
OK, kidding. Quick Hit has had to put together more than 100 individual deals, the vast majority of them past players. (Itās limited to using five current players by the NFLPA). These four coaches will add depth to the season simulation, said Jeffrey Anderson, the Quick Hit founder and former CEO of Turbine.
āOur users tell us they love testing their football skills against the true style of real coaches. Weāre all about coaching and strategy, and these four new coaches will bring even more authenticity to the single player experience,ā said Jeffrey Anderson, CEO at Quick Hit.
The game is free and open for signup to the general public.
