I am in the first year of a rebuild at Youngstown State (Iba), and I signed a high potential Freshman without any promises of minutes, or start. He broke his ankle in game three and is out seven games before he wuill be "reevaluated" to play. Yes I know he is not getting minutes or practice, be he has lost all the gains he had after two Ex games and three games, and is now losing ratings across the board. Last time I had a major injury was in 2.0, and he just stayed in place.
Has it always been this way, or is this a recent tweak?

I'm still new in HD but a couple seasons back for my Stevenson team my center to put it in the words of the trainer "He died on the court after dislocating his shoulder". He was out for 4-5 games and took a huge hit to Rebounding (believe he lost about 10 points) but after the 4-5 games of rest his rating went back to normal before the injury and had small growth.
