either 4 weeks of passing or 2 weeks of passing and 2 weeks of 1 on 1.

I'd just caution that I did get 4 pops in 6 weeks but he likely had a high sub-level so you might get 4 but I can guarantee that you'll at least get 3. If you want him to have a nice start you could always train OD for 10 weeks to get him up to Prolific-Sensational. IMO I wouldn't worry about JS/JR just yet if you're in a low division (like I am) because a high OD will shut down the other team's scorers if you're in a low division and will make you competitive very quickly. Others will probably disagree but if you single train him over the next two years in OD and Passing then you'll have an excellent defensive players who can pass and then you can round out his other skills over the following 3 years. That's what I'm doing with my 5'9 guy. Also, your player's salary won't increase substantially for a couple of years regardless of what you train.

I wish there were pigmen. You get a few of these pigmen walking around I'm looking a whole lot better. Then if somebody wants to fix me up at least they could say, Hey he's no pig-man!

Thats pretty cool.

heres some of my data I might as well share in reguards to the topic.

OD

Ricky mclean
Age: 18
6'6" / 198 cm
6 weeks trained in Outside Defense

4 OD pops.
1 ID pop.


I don't buy this. At 6 ft 6, in 6 weeks, you'd be fortunate to get 2 pops in OD out of him. 3 would be near impossible, and 4 is a big no way! 1 pop every 1.5 weeks traing Pressure on a 6 ft 6 guy?

Since your player has a relatively low potential, I think he can't become a superstar guard who can shoot, defend and pass marvelously. Skills like OD and JR count more towards potential cap than, for example, DR, HA or IS. That's why I'd train this guy to become some sort of Inside specialist guard. He doesn't have a big enough ID to be trained as a SF, but man that Respectable IS is sweet.

So I'd put more emphasis on Driving and Inside shot than JR, for example. OD should of course be as high as possible, but you don't have to stretch too much for a JR of 12, for example; I think 10 would be more than enough and maybe even 9 is ok.

That said, this guy with Wondrous Driving, Tremendous Handling and prominent IS would draw fouls like it's nobody's business. So I suggest One on One for SF/PF when you don't have anything else to train.
