Got this in my inbox from an unrecognized name, signed by a freshman I promised minutes to.

Hey Coach - caught the game last night. The one big thing I noticed was that Hoey seems a step slow once he gets winded. You may want to think about reducing his minutes or spending more time getting his butt in shape. Take it for what it's worth.

What does this mean? What happened that caused me to get it? Is this the first in a chain of emails that lead to the player having to retire early?

Haha, I've received these messages before. I think you sometimes get them when a player is spending a certain amount of his minutes below a fatigue threshold. I'm pretty sure it doesn't make any difference in the grand scheme of things. Like he's not going to leave or anything. But yeah, its a goofy message to receive.

That message used to come from your trainer or assistant coach or something like that. It generally relates to a player with low stamina playing more minutes than his stamina would support.
