Ok... Scouting tells you all of there abilities, how good they catch, how fast they are, how strong they are, ect... Recruiting them is trying to get them to come play for you... So scouting you see there abilities... Recruiting lets you try to lure them to you

Hopefully that helped

only assign them 3-9 points to recruit! that way you can recruit more players. I never had a problem with that. If ya get them or not....just play on JV or Varisty to make them regret not coming to your team!

Does it really matter if you scout someone or not, because it takes around 15 points just to scout someone. Also, what should a good recruit have as an overall rating? Last thing...what does it mean when it says ATH under someone's position?

ATH means they can play ANY position. They are Athletes! That is what that is!! If 3-9 points isn't enough to recruit someone, then forget them! you can try 15 points...but that won't get ya much. Try getting their attention by saying you'll give them playing time.

that never works for me tho. I use a team out in nowhere and its hard for me to pull good recruits. I use like 20 per recruit and that doesnt even get the job done.
