You know, I had to fire one of my draft picks today. He fouled way too frequently. I really think the BB’s ought to correct that. When you dump money into the scouting process it’s a shame to get a guy who appears to be “blue chip” but fouls out all the time.

Ah, the hidden aggressive trait. I've had many young players that fouled a ton in the beginning. Most after enough training grew out of that phase or became less of an issue. It just sucks when they only get 30 or so minutes in the week from fouling out during their prime growing years. Unless you have other trainable players, it might have been worth continuing on or just selling the guy off at the end of season.

So the “aggressive trait” is not fixed? Can you show me where this is shown to be the case?

The player has the trait like intended but the affects get seen less. Its hard to identify specifics since its not a visual stat. I've definitely had a few players struggle with fouls through the first 2 or so seasons before "calming" down.

I'd have to look through some of my old players but I can use Will Blackman for a smallish quick example. Season 44: 6 games with 5+ fouls, Season 45: 3 games with 5+ fouls, Season 46: 2 games with 5+ fouls, Season 47: 0 games with 5+ fouls (more games as he promoted from just being a scrimmage player).

No, he never received stamina training at all during that time frame. I believe he has only had 2-3 weeks of stamina training in his entire existence.

Training should have been close to these upgrades from my old notes:
44: 1 JS, 4 OD, 3 HA, 4 DR, 1 PA, 1 IS, 1 ID
45: 3 JS, 2 JR, 3 OD, 2 HA, 1 DR, 3 IS, 1 ID, 1 RB
46: 2 JS, 1 JR, 3 OD, 1 HA, 1 DR, 1 IS, 1 ID

I figure just getting better at basic defense is a huge help.

Hello to my former league! I've returned to the game. Nice to see some old faces still in the game (what's up Isaiah!), as well as the regular contenders.
