Player Ratings missing on NCAA 14

[BrockOchoGOAT]

The "potential" rating has been left out of NCAA games for years. The rating represents the upside of how a player can develop. This is important, especially for recruiting. In real life, some recruits are more developed while others are long-term projects. What other player ratings do you think should be added to NCAA 14 and/or other future NCAA games?

Let's start with the obvious: the QB ratings fields which are in Madden.

Short Pass Accuracy
Medium Pass Accuracy
Deep Pass Accuracy
Throw On The Run
Playaction

I completely agree. I would also add "delivery" to that list that should be on both football games. The quickness of a QBs throw is such an important attribute to have.

I'd rather keep the potential rating hidden. I don't want to know if my guy is due for a huge up in rating by his JR year just because his potential is a 90.

I completely agree, where is the fun if you know how well a player will be during the recruiting process or while cutting players from your team

As I've stated before, potential should not be a a numerical value but rather a percentage that a player will hit a current rating. This will make every dynasty unique and more dynamic.

For example,

Current potential:
Player A is 60 overall. B potential, always reaches rating in 80s.

New model:
Player A is 60 overall, potentials are as follows:
90-99: 20%
80-89: 30 %
70-79: 5%
60-69: 45%

This would be an example of a guy who is either gonna succeed or his tools are gonna fail him and he will not be great.
Obviously it would be broken down more and preferably player development would depend on factors such as this, % of snaps played, coaches development rating, and practice reps.

Also, there is always the problem of assigning default players potential ratings.

This is simply false.
