I want 2 of the players to play is there something I need to do? http://onlinecollegebasketball.org/player/108257 http://onlinecollegebasketball.org/player/111823

If you want them to play, you need to make sure of two things: 1. They are listed at a position on your depth chart, preferably one of the top two spots. The third stringers sometimes do not get playing time and it is very rare for a 4th or 5th stringer. 2. Make sure their minutes are not 0 in Game Management. Also Grover didn't redshirt last season.

Maybe only fr prospects and a certain number of points? how much? do we know? Thanks

Generally, I have seen a drop-off in interest after 20ish contacts on a freshman and around 40ish on a sophomore. This is really based on only a few recruits so it certainly might not be accurate but I think it is close. I haven't noticed it at all on Juniors.
