Some ideas:

Maybe players could have residual training that is stored up, and then dribbled out over time. If a team trains a player and then sells him, the new team will see the slow improvement. If a team trains their own player they will see the improvement down the road.

Spread training out more so more players benefit. This might be such that training all 5 positions is 25-30% the speed of a single position. And 2 positions might be 55 to 60% of the speed of a single position. Or maybe there could be some target position training shifted to other positions. So that train "C" doesn't mean only train center, but to train "C" primarily but not exclusively.

Maybe players who don't receive any skill development could have deteriorated game shape, or higher salary demands, especially in their mid 20s.

Or required training to maintain higher skill levels. So if you purchase a player with a legendary skill, you have just purchased a trainee if you want to maintain that high skill.


training is 1/3 as fast per player

Great ideas. I like them all.
The third one seems like a punishment for people who train in the currently popular style. I don't want to punish anyone, just add some more options. Oddly, this is also my favorite of your suggestions and seems the most lifelike- like the second stringers having to watch the first team run the offense for half an hour before getting on the court to play dummy defense.
The first and second ideas are absolute winners in my book.

The last one would make the teams who have studs now uncatchable (as if they aren't already.)

good work,tex!!!

I personally like the training system the way it is now.
