Solution

This is an example of d. Self-fulfilling prophecy.

Here's why: The coach expects the rookie players to perform poorly, so he doesn't give them much play time. When they do play, they're rusty from lack of practice and thus don't perform well, which confirms the coach's initial expectations. This is a self-fulfilling prophecy because the coach's initial expectation (the rookies will perform poorly) influences his behavior (not giving them much play time), which in turn influences the rookies' behavior (performing poorly due to lack of practice), ultimately leading to the outcome the coach initially expected.
