Scouting trips/evals Topic

Is there a point at which any category you don't get your AC to comment on is an "average" potential category? For instance, I've been on 3 evals of a Canadian PG, and I know he has good upside in a few things, but haven't heard squat on Speed, Perimeter, or BH. When I get to 6 evals and still haven't heard, can I assume they are average? 10? 

Anyone ever played around with this?

No you cannot assume they are average.  This sucks and I wish it would be fixed so that after 5 evals I would know everything.

Or you could instruct your assistant on which areas to scout.  How many head coaches just say "go look at this guy" without the assistant knowing what areas will be the primary concerns?

Yeah, it's kind of silly how the evals work.  I can understand that it would hurt the game to have everything revealed with just one evaluation, but you shouldn't have to send a dozen of them to find out one thing.  Especially what O/D the recruit's team played when scouted.

I would love to have a targeted eval added as a recruiting option.  They could keep the current option, but for a set amount more you could specify 2 areas you want your assistant coach focus on and provide the feedback on. 

It is just ridiculous that I did 6 evals of a SG and didn't get any feedback on his perimeter potential.

replace the worthless personality slot from the past and put in a position specific eval.
PF/C tells you RB, Def, Blk, LP....
SF tell you RB, Def, LP, PE....
PG/SG tells you Def, PE, BH, Pass....
make it cost 50% more.
If you want more... then normal evals tell you everything else.... but random. (remove the above from the results).

make the specific eval worth 150% recruiting credit as well so it doesn't become a math test.

110%.

Seems so obvious and easy.

Until then, reinsel does know the potential for all players, so just sitemail him.
