I have been seeing more and more teams with more than 6 players in the same class.

Played a team with 9 in a class. 

Thought than that was no longer within the rules of the game.

Sim's must be exempt or coaches can pick up a team with 9 returning sophomores and play it out.

Yes, sims are exempt and then humans can pick them up. The players usually are not as good as human recruited prospects though.

Well the team in our conference. got conference coach of the year with 3 players making 2nd team all-conference and 2 makeing honorable mention.

All 9 players are rated A- or better on offense and Defense, and they are all Juniors, and are 8-8 against humans.  however have only beaten 3 non-human teams with winning records.

All have stamina of 86 or better, and all are solid players. 

Team is 17-11 overall Rpi of 124 and palying in the CT Final.

Did he recruit them or did the sim?      Look at the "roster" tab.     

all sim recruits
