It's not necessarily a glitch but it is a flaw in coaching logic that seems to affect users differently. It seems like the coach can't make up his mind about his requirements for you to be a starter.

As a point-forward style SF in MC with the Bobcats going into game 7 of my rookie season I was averaging 13 ppg, 11 rpg, 7 apg in 15 mpg with a A- teammate rating. After having a pretty off game of 8 points on 3-11 shooting, 3 rebounds, 6 assists(4 TOs) and a -3 +/- with a B- teammate rating in 19 minutes I was promoted to starter with 32 minutes ahead of MKG who was averaging 8 ppg, 6 rpg and 4 apg in 29 mpg. In game 8, I had 19 points on 7-13 shooting, 16 boards, 9 assists(0 TOs) and a 19 +/- with an A+ teammate grade in 34 minutes. After the game I checked the rotation menu, I'm 6th man again and I had lost 17 minutes. 15 games later I've gotten 2 more starts and my minutes vary between by as many as 8 to as little as 1.
