Xbox 360 NCAA Football 09 Rosters in EA Locker
by 
The controversy surrounding the “business” of rosters has been in the public eye more so this year than any before. That in itself threatens the future of having an editing option in games such as EA Sports NCAA Football and NCAA Basketball. This year with the addition of the EA Locker feature and the following announcement hopefully that is about to change.
I can now state that the first and only fully named roster file for NCAA Football 09 on the Xbox 360 currently resides in my EA Locker.
I am choosing not to release the file for download at this time as it would just offer the opportunity for certain people to nab it in advance and use it for their own profit. However it is publicly available via the Locker to those who have the game and will remain that way.
I apologize to PS3 gamers as I do not have that roster available. Keep an eye on NCAA Strategies and freencaa09rosters for updates on that. The same circumstances will apply with a fully named roster available for free through the EA Locker, though the timing of when it will be available can not be determined at this time.
So now for 360 gamers there is no waiting around after release for rosters to be completed and no wondering where to get them from. The first time you fire up the game you’ll be able to grab the complete named roster from my locker. Even if you’re one of the lucky ones who manage to find the game early!
Spread the word that rosters are free and easier to obtain this year than ever before. Just head into the EA Locker section of NCAA Football 09 and search the gamertag pastapadre to get them instantly!
Title updated to more accurrately reflect the current situation. The rosters can now be found in other lockers as well.

my cougs were pretty accurate
Don’t need to be a friend.
when you go to the screen just “ADD GAMERTAG”
it’s the “first” in the list of your friends.

Yo, pasta is there a free downloadable version of NCAA rosters for the PS3 and if so whats the gamer tag? p.s. you guys are AWESOME.
July 17, 2008 at 2:27 pm

To those of you bitching. What have YOU got to offer…nothing. So STFU and quit acting like the group of people that bitch about FREE stuff and never work for anything!!
Have a nice day

[quote comment="27751"]You don’t have to be on his friend’s list to get the rosters[/quote]
i dont have the ncaa 09 football game yet, but i was wondering how i get the free roster downloaded for xbox 360.
July 18, 2008 at 1:12 am
Hey man, thanks a lot… wasn’t sure how long it would take for me to find someone to DL from and you made it super quick. I haven’t looked over any teams other than my wolverines, but so far so good… Good lookin out.
July 18, 2008 at 7:42 am
thank you soooooooo much.I’ve uploaded it to my locker and have been telling everyone to download it.I.m new to xbox live but thanks to you everyone wants to be my friend.lol.I have even have them believing that I’m so cool.Thank you pastapadre.even if it didn’t make me any cooler people sure think I’m cooler and thats what realy counts right.lol

Is there a good place to download a full roster that I can edit, if so, what username on Live? Also why is it that when I do campus legend the rosters dont apply to legend mode? As soon as I created a player it screwed up my entire downloaded roster!!!! Now I need to download another one
July 18, 2008 at 5:16 pm
Ok I’ve downloaded the roster (thanks!) but I still only have numbers and positions on my teams….how do I make it show up????
July 19, 2008 at 1:54 pm
Did you add Sammie Stroughter to Oregon State? If you did, THANKS!
July 19, 2008 at 1:58 pm
Hey. Thanks for adding Sammie Stroughter to the Beaver Roster. Too bad Ea Sports is too stupid to do it themselves. Not to mention the fact that James Rodgers is a helluva lot faster in real life then he is in this game. Anyway, thanks!
July 19, 2008 at 3:51 pm
How do you apply the downloaded roster to the game…after I downloaded it, it still showed the numbers and no names
July 19, 2008 at 8:04 pm
Thank you!!! wish i had seen this before i paid $30 @ ebay…but at least i get a memory card….you rock.

July 27, 2008 at 7:36 am
How do you get these rosters to load? Mine still has numbers on their backs and I see no help on how to get this to work! BLEH!
July 31, 2008 at 6:36 pm
YES I GOT IT TO WORK, guys if it isn’t working for you, delete the roster in file management by pressing Y (this is for 360) then redownload the roster from PastaPadre, immediately restart the xbox after the download is complete, and it will automically upload it after it restarted, THANKS PASTA!
August 2, 2008 at 10:28 am
Thank you for the roster update much appreciated. To all of those who still have #s and positions, all you do after you save the roster update. Just have to load it from “My NCAA 09, then File Management, then Load & Delete”…thank you very much again
August 2, 2008 at 9:35 pm
How do you search for the rosters?
August 3, 2008 at 1:51 pm
you are the best!
August 4, 2008 at 8:54 pm
This is awesome, I have always wanted to play a ncaa game with the names of the players on the back of the jerseys
August 5, 2008 at 11:56 am
The Roster Patch was apparently released today. Do you have to re-do your rosters, or can I get them now?
August 6, 2008 at 7:18 am
Hey pasta i downloaded the roster and it works fine in quick game but it dosnt show up in my dynasty is this because i had previously started the dynasty before i downloaded the rosters?
August 6, 2008 at 9:01 am
yes must have the roster loaded before you start a dynasty
do u need xbox live gold to access ea locker?
August 6, 2008 at 5:56 pm
much love. the business that has grown up around this service is insane. 30-40 bucks for roster names? ouch. thanks!
August 14, 2008 at 4:05 pm
you’re awesome man. so much better than using a file transfer and memory card plus purchasing the roster. lifesaver! thanks a ton.
August 14, 2008 at 10:55 pm
when i go to my EA locker and hit download roster it says “An Xbox LIVE Membership limitation does not allow you to use this feature”
any help please?
August 17, 2008 at 8:50 am
Wow, dude thats sick….:D
August 25, 2008 at 5:17 pm
When downloading the rosters from EA Locker, I game freezes when I try to play campus legend and dynasty mode. The game even freezes when i go on the edit/create the roster. I tried the recent so called “patch” yesterday and it is even worse….NOW, I can get out of xbox live if I want 2. What the hell is going on with EA Sports?? These guys are pathetic and they should be ashamed of themselves. I tell you this….If my NCAA football 09 is messed up due to the Freezing or my xbox gets the red of death. EA will pay me back for my damn game and system. PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
August 31, 2008 at 2:37 pm
After you DL the roster, do you have to upload it too?
And, to get the names on the backs of your jersies, what mode do you have to play?
September 9, 2008 at 1:14 pm
I downloaded the rosters successfully. How do i play with the rosters in Dynasty mode? it only allows me to switch active profile, it doesnt let me select in files. anybody have the answer to this question.
September 15, 2008 at 3:31 pm
