First off, I think the scouts and coaches are an excellent part of OOTP. They force you to play money ball and add a question mark to every decision. That being said, I recently turned them off out of frustration. Why, during the signing period, do you only get 1 crack at signing a coach/scout? I find that I am bidding well above the asking price and still don't get them (I don't want to just throw 6 figures at them because it feels like cheating). After one round, all the quality coaches and scouts are signed and you are stuck with the scrubs. In my opinion, for this option to work, there has to be a bidding period like during free agency. Maybe it could be done at the same time as FA, just another position to fill.
