first off, its definitely not all luck... far from it. there are lots of coaches including yours truly who have never hd a player flunk. its just a matter of priorities and how much risk you want to take.
i think its actually setup pretty well and adds a neat element to the game. actually, there should probably b more randomness or just make it harder to keep evryone passing. makes us make choices and creates risk/reward.. which is good.
i wish i had time to study this issue and see if planslike bri's work out in the long run (as opposed to the safe, never fail pans like i use). part of my problem is i rn FB press and i cannot afford to have anyone fail. you need all 12 bodies. but even back when i ran motion/zone, i didnt like kids failing and then having to throw alot of SH mins at them to get theri grades up. but a coach like bri prolly gains an average of 6 min of practice time per player over me, which aint chump change.
anyways, interesting stuff... but definitely not luck
