I think I picked up a SF prospect. Would you agree? Would trying to make him a SF ruin any chance he has at u21 action?

You can't be sure that training him to be an SF would mess up his chance. It's only the first week of his 18 year old season, and U21 is 3 seasons away. A lot can and will change by then. I would give him OD/PA first, then move onto ID. His JR/HA/REB/SB is a nice starting point.

I've Been Out Of BB Awhile Due To Deployment So My Previous Account Went Inactive;But My Question Is How Would You Go About Training This Player? I Know He Isn't A USA Native But His Country's People Don't Type Great English. I Was Going For About 10-14OD This Season And Training Passing To 10-13 Next Season? Ideas? Thank You For Your Time!

The 1st guy needs PA training immediately, and the 2nd guy is terrible secondaries-wise.

First I would train his OD to 9, and his PA to 8, so he won't be a big liability on offense or defense. Then for the weeks were there are only 2 games or were you can't get more than 42 minutes at PG, train 1v1 and JS. He is tall for a guard, so if you were ever to play him at SF or PF and train 1v1 Forwards, in time, he might be able to get an IS pop.

If you were just to stick to OD and train nothing else, the elastic effect would slow his OD training down. You can think of the elastic effect as a rubber band. If a player's skills is closer to another related skill, both skills will train normally. (If you don't stretch the rubber band too much, you can stretch it more.) The higher a skill is from another related skill, the longer it will take to train that skill. (The farther and farther you stretch the rubber band, the harder it will be to stretch it even further.)

There is an upside, however. For example, if HA is a lot higher than DR, when you train 1v1, DR will pop a lot faster until it gets to a close enough level to HA. Then it's training speed will go back to normal. Hope this helps.

If I have an advanced trainer with no specialty, can he train my team good enough?

Yes. Advanced trainers are, in my opinion, the most cost-effective trainers there are. I use them all the time.

There he is! Mon ami français! ;)

This Friday, after I listen to some Rebbecca Black via YouTube, I'll be checking up on Huang's progress. Will discuss your current training plan a little more, as well. Here's to Bob Huang; may he have an abundance of skill pops come friday!
