probably should make a new thread but oyu got a couple replies
definitely... even if you are a "GM" you can delegate all sorts of responsibility to the AI. As a gm you may want "GM-Legacy mode" checked in Global Settings, too. if you want to control managing of games and depth charts regardless of a coach's wishes.
e.g. you don't want to deal with minors in any way-- GM Office -> Control Settings [sic] and select Asst. GM or Minor League Managers etc.
That's the screen you want to look over... check manual too if they aren't obvious as to what the effect is.
As a "Coach", you just take jobs and the players given to you. maybe that's the option you want to take when starting a league. can switch after too.
And, you can do as cinefan suggests while you delegate in many instances... slim it down to a bite size and if you enjoy it expand... maybe control 1 or 2 prospects. whatever you enjoy or appreciate the returns of, you can expand upon that and continue to avoid anything that's not entertaining/fun etc without investing much. just a toe in the water
