Two joysticks

[Heber Hooper]

would one joystick for each side of the robot, kind of like a tank, work well in programming and such for a new team who has little programming experience or is something easier for controllers. thanks

Tank drive is definitely the easiest drive train to program and is typically pretty effective. The most basic version would be to set the power of the left motor to the y position of the left joystick and the power of the right motor to the y position of the right joystick.
