Draft scouting question Topic

My hs scouting is 20 and college 5. I understand my hs guys I will see more of and ratings more accurate. My question is , the college guys I do see, their ratings are likely very inaccurate only having 5 on college correct ?

For any of you with 20 hs and low college, how do you rank the college guys? Do you not even attempt to rank any high or assume some are studs and rank them somewhere ?

Your assumption is correct; the ratings are very inaccurate. I've never had that kind of balance so can't answer the other question.

If you're putting $5 mil in college you might as well put $0 in college. The minimum I'd put into any scouting budget, HS/College/International when I'm hoping to actually find real prospects would be $12 mil. With a $5 mil budget your ratings will be too skewed to accurately determine which players have potential. You'd be better off putting that money in your coaching budget to help the development of your HS draftees, or your International budget to supplement your draft.

If you have $5 million in there because you're
working your way up, then I’d ignore the college players until you’re over $10 million. If $5 million is in there just because, then cut it to $0 next season and redeploy the funds.

yes previous owner had college up at 15. I was planning to go on the way down to 0, thus the 5.
