First off, sorry for digging a thread up from its grave. I was searching the forum for an answer for something and found this.
I agree that micro managing low level scouts would be insanely tedious and not fun. Hiring a scouting director and giving him a budget is a much better way to go about it. But I think the way the game presents the reports to you needs to change.
I'll start with the international discoveries. Instead of saying that your scouting director has finished a trip to Venezuela and brought back player a, why not have the email come from the scouting director but he says one of his oversee scouts had recommended signing this kid and he agreed? That way, the game recognizes the fact that there is more than one scout in an organization.
I would also like to see a progression of the scouting reports, although this would only make sense if you have feeder league players for you draft. You get an initial report from your area supervisor which could be inaccurate given his scope. Then you'll eventually get a report from a national cross checker which would be more accurate since it's compared to the players across the country. Then eventually before the draft, you will get a report from a top level scout.
May be that's too in depth. Perhaps I should just assume that the report I get every two months has already gone through all the stages. I will stick by my suggestion that the way the reports are presented needs to change. Recognize that there are multiple levels of scouting and it should be just fine.
