quick scouting report question

Saw this come through on a scouting report.

Does the scout's additional comment apply to the player above or below the comment? I saw it a couple other times, but it was always in the middle of a list.

Above.

This, by the way, is the new feature that can vary a guy's potential significantly from the starting point. The scouts will occasionally give you this note if they think they've spotted a player with this characteristic...but sometimes they guess wrong and miss players who do have it, or say it's there when it isn't.

That's what I figured, but didn't want to assume.

I figure it's probably easier to change the first character in the scout's comment rather than add a character to the player line report, so would it be possible to change the * to a ^ to make it a little more clear to whom the note applies?

Or better yet, just switch "this player" to his actual last name.

It would be cool too if that note could somehow be reflected on the player on draft day. Maybe just a symbol that appears on their info bar on the main draft page and when you hover over it it says the note from the email?
