Does anyone know what HS FT% correlates to as far as letter grade? And how much to expect as far as improvement if a recruit is average or high? I have a pretty good grasp on all the potentials and what to expect with everything else, but have never seen anything with free throw shooting. Does anyone have a guide or at least an idea?

i think there is a mapping in a pinned thread in the critical news forum. the thread name is something like important HD information and i believe the creator was antonsirus or whatever.

Awesome thanks guys

Iguana1's BBIQ Practice Minute Chart: These are the ranges
I've found based on the 4 seasons since the iq grading has
changed.
The number on the left assumes a "fast" learner. WE of 80 and
GPA over 3.2. The number on the right is for a slower learner.
WE around 40, GPA under 2.5.
Of course there are extreme cases on both ends. I had a player
with a WE of 11 that took about 20% longer than the second
number.

• F > D- 50-75
  D- > D 50-75
  D > D+ 50-75
  D+ > C- 50-75 total F > C- 200-300

• C- > C 100-150
  C > C+ 100-150
  C+ > B- 120-200 total C- > B- 320-500 total F > B- 520-800

• B- > B 290-400
  B > B+ 290-400 total B- > B+ 580-800 total F > B+ 1100-1600

• B+ > A- 375-500
  A- > A 575-775
  A > A+ 450-625 total B+ > A+ 1400-1900 total F > A+ 2500-3500

• porkpower's Recruit FT Chart:

  • A+ 88.0% - 92.9% HS FT%
    A 83.8% - 86.8%
    A- 80.8% - 83.9%

  • B+ 77.9% - 82.1%
    B 74.6% - 77.7%
    B- 71.4% - 74.7%

  • C+ 68.3% - 72.0%
    C 65.3% - 68.7%
    C- 62.3% - 66.0%

  • D+ 59.2% - 63.3%
    D 56.8% - 59.8%
    D- 53.3% - 56.6%
    F 51.0% - 53.3%

Can someone explain that chart to me. Because every time I look at it, I just get more confused. 

basically each FT grade is worth about 3 percentage points

A+:    87 +
A  :    84-87
A- :    81-84

B+:   78-81
B  :   75-78
B- :   72-75

C+:   69-72
C  :   66-69
C- :   63-66

D+:   57-60
D  :   54-57
D- :    -- 54

and what does low medium and high potential mean in the context of free throw shooting?

I'm talking about Iguana's.

Yeah, thanks for reminding me of the other half of my question, oconnut. What about potentials?     

this was an estimation (from a few years ago) of the amount of practice minutes needed to improve Off/Def IQ

this would be a revised chart showing the improvement minutes needed to move from grade to grade.
The range assumes a "quick-learner" improves with about 15% less time than an average player and the "slow-learner" may take 35+% more practice time.

D- > D	60	40-80
D > D+	60	40-80
