How accurate are Head Scout initial stats???

FNC · 06-13-2007, 10:57 PM

When I started a new game all players had potentials from the head scout.

I decided to do a quick scout with the same head scout and 2 players with potentials in the 70s went to 21???

Argh!

What gives?

In my experience that would be pretty unusual. When I rescout someone with the same scout less than a month apart I almost always get identical results. So 'almost always' that I've actually given up trying.

Quickscouts are much less accurate than fullscouts. I find that a good compromise is to quickscout a player with all six major league scouts. It takes no additional time, and the average of their results (available on the player profile) is generally more accurate than any single report.
