Looking at my economy page, I can see that I have spent 40k on scouting since 12/21/09 for sure. I know that I've spent 40k since I made this team, but I may have joined later than scouting for this season began. Regardless, I have 44 players scouted at least once...19 of which were scouted a second time. We have a very good draft class with 14 5-star prospects (although there may be more in the 5 players that I don't have information for), so I think my 1st and 2nd round picks will be very valuable players.
Good luck in Div IV next season, I'm sure you'll do well to hold your own. Hopefully I'll see you up there sometime soon. I'm still trying to rearrange my roster, but I should have my team playing on a high enough level by the end of next season to make a serious run in the playoffs.
