Do we know how much effect coaching has now? No. We don't need to know, Markus has done good thus far, so I trust him with choosing that. So, that's honestly up to him and his team. If it produces realistic numbers (not sure how that would change) then there should be no issue.

And I'm arguing that your claim has no statistics to back it up either (yet the OOTP team is able to have current coaching work in a realistic manner without the stats you claim, I just want it expanded). I spent 30 minutes today speaking with a friend who played baseball about the effect of coaching he had some positive and negative things to say about how he feel coaching effected his development, and was in strong agreement that it matters.

Never did I say "make stuff up" I laid out exactly how I'd like it to work a mix of personality, coach skill at the various positions, and that mixes with the player ability, personality, and potential. How much? Again, we don't know how much it effects it currently, so that's not really a strong argument here as the OOTP team is very good with this very thing.

The younger a player is the more coaching will effect how close he can come to his ceiling and there's a number of other things it could influence.
