Just saw this guy, and I'm really really tentative to believe this is real.
I mean, I know it's a real player and a real account. But how could a person on their first player dominate EVERY other S I've ever seen for their build??? And only by level 20?
Has anyone else seen anyone that good yet?? I just looked through the best USA Pro teams and not ONE of their SS's was even GREEN overall.
Going to PM a mod to make sure, but I just had to share this.

EDIT - Being looked into. If I find anything out I'll put it here.

My only guess would be that he has no SA's, but I have no idea. Pretty amazing none the less if that is true.

I PM'd him to ask him for suggestions, so if it's real hopefully he'll divulge

If you look at his stats, they're not all that spectacular. He may have good bars, but like Parab00n said, he prolly has no SAs and I'd say it'd be better if he had atleast some.

wow crap i overlooked the lower levels... haven't seen him before. props to him, though i'm guessing that for a level 20 he simply put a ton of points into speed and a ton of points into strength/tackling and left everything else in the dust, because he couldn't have had too many SP to spend yet

That means nothing, as if this is a glitch or something, I'm sure it JUST happened.
And I haven't even seen a lvl 28 with bars this high.
Not having any SA's can't make up for 8 levels worth of SP's.

But SA's don't count towards those bars, I think.

No way that's legit.
I did a little quick math in my head, he's a level 20. SAs and equipment don't count. I'm level 23, with 36 36 39 in the numbers.
I have put a total of 16 points into SAs, by no means a lot, especially to garner those numbers. And add the 15 SPs for being 3 levels ahead, that's a 1 point difference. It's bullshit. If he has no SAs, he should look around 3/4 levels ahead, not 10.

Guys... scouting bars are related to what Bort told the game to be a good pass defender. So he obviously figured out and spend every single skill point and every single training accordingly.

But does that really count?

He's:
77 tkl, 2 Int, 1 FFum, 9 PD in season 3.

Only amazing number is tackles, but let's take a closer look:

http://goallineblitz.com/game/player_game_log.pl?season=3&player_id=86491

He sucked in the later games. And he played KOS special team (that's where I got the majority of my tackles:

76 tkl, 1 Int, 2 FFum, 11 PD

So never mind! I'm sure, you guys can put up similare stats - that's proving scouting bars mean nothing.

So what's the point of spending every SP into what Bort figured out? I'm pretty sure, I could raise my scouting bar by rearranging equipment pretty fast. But I don't want to - for I like the way my guy plays!

Wouldn't it also be possible that the high-ish number of tackles is a result of a lot of plays slipping through the first lines of defense (D-line, LB's, CB's)? Maybe his teams defense wasn't all that great last year, so his guy cleaned up a lot.

exactly what i was trying to say
it's believable, but i doubt he's got a lot of points in anything other than say 2 or 3 skills

This is an important lesson. Scouting bars are NOT indicative of how good a player is. I look at it like this:

Deion Sanders was a freak athletically.

Terrance Newman is as well.

Deion has intangibles that Newman doesn't hence the difference between a VERY good CB and one of the greatest of all time. The difference is intangibles... ie SAs.

I'd rather guess, that attributes like confidence or higher stamina have a great effect on terms of scouting bars. Like going from 50 to 60 in speed won't do much, but spending those 20 Skill Points into stamina and confidence will bring you a green bar. Again... nothing but a green bar most likely.

M y SS is at 36 39 39 and has better stats all around while winning USA AAA last year. Bars don't mean anything
