I have a freshman I promised 10 minutes per game to that was injured a few games ago. I've sat him to recover and he's still only at 70 health.

Is he going to get ****** at not playing when he's less than 100 health?

It's been a long time since I've dealt with an injury to a player with a promise because I've been away from the game for a couple of years but I think so.

Assuming you are talking about Dunn...fortunately, you gave him extra minutes in the non-conference. He's sitting at 146 minutes, so he wouldn't start getting upset until after your 16th game. Until then, that math is in your favor..

If you're worried about aggravating the injury, sit him out for several more games to let his health get a little higher.
