Nothing. They aren't going to get significant time during conference play, so why not use this time to continue to teach the guys who are going to play?

Because it usually comes down to the bench at the end of the season. Injuries, foul trouble, back to back to back games take a toll on the starters.

I totally disagree. 8 guys in the rotation is plenty.

The best quote on it I've ever heard.

The year before Nevada played 3 guys over 34 minutes. 1 guy 29, 1 guy 26. Porter played 17 minutes. That left 2 leftover players to played 10-12 mins total per game.

College players play everyday. They play AAU ball nonstop. They play pickup ball. They aren't getting gassed by playing 30 minutes a game, twice a week. They aren't getting gassed playing 30 minutes a game; back to back or in the tourney when its 3-4 nights in a row.

This year is weird because its a redshirt year for everyone but this is the ideal approach. 4 guys that are redshirting or sit out transfers. 9 active players. 6-7 playing 24+ minutes per game and the last 2-3 picking up the scraps.

Gonzaga blows a lot of teams out. They have 6 guys averaging 20 or more minutes and 1 guy playing 14. The rest is scraps. Jay Wright knows this, he typically plays a core rotation of 6 per year and then 1-2 pick up the rest of the minutes, mostly garbage time.
1. Your favorite quote is from a coked up whack job that basically hasn't done crap as a college basketball coach.
2. In your other two examples you claim a 6 man rotation, but then claim others "pick up the scraps" which means they are playing more than 6.
