I had a player improved as a freshman, play no minutes at all, he grew never complained and I never fulfilled the promises start and minutes I have made. Bug to fix.

Not a bug. Every player has a threshold they are willing to accept for minutes and promises. Sometimes you promise a player a start and 25 minutes, never play them, and they never complain. Others complain and transfer if you *only* start them 25/26 games (yes, this has happened to me).

The bigger point should be if you promise a kid something he should transfer 100% of the time promises are unfulfilled.

Well, why is there promises if you can break them that bad and get away with it. He played zero minutes during the season. I forgot about him.

Prior to 3.0 D1 coaches would commonly sign a kid at the end of recruiting for just a start + scholarship to preserve their $$$ carryover for the following season. Unfortunately, it sometimes backfired when the kid didn't get upset and transfer at seasons end.

Needs a fix.

And let's not forget that for a good period of time you could start the kid in the first game and then drop him off the depth chart and the kid would interpret it as 100 percent starts for the season. because he'd started 1 out of 1 games...
