Message: [QUOTE="diggerfoot, post: 4519082, member: 1673"] I suppose it depends upon how you define a short rotation, but five out of eleven championship years had a rotation greater than eight (‘00, ‘09, ‘10, ‘13, ‘14), three of these were ten or more. All the others had a rotation of eight. I consider part of the rotation as getting at least 5 minutes in all games, including against the best competition. Having said that, I’m not certain that Rose, Better or Hunt got many minutes in the ‘95 championship game, though Sales and Berube certainly did. This is not to argue against short rotations, I often refer to the 2018 Notre Dame team, just to assert that a variety of factors determines the length of the rotation and keeping it short is not as primary to Auriemma’s strategy as many has made it out to be.
