Re: paper: Scouting Accuracy Benchmarking Study

This is a great paper, I really enjoyed reading it. In the back of my mind, I have always wanted to run an analysis like this for every team at an event that will give me data, and then give an award to the team with the "best" scouting data using an analysis like this. Of course, thinking grand ideas is far different than implementing them.

The importance of good scouts too often seems undervalued relative to other team positions, and I think that giving a small team award could go a long way toward making scouts have a more enjoyable experience.
