For last night's roster management. Unlike Underwood at Illinois who looked to pad the stats of his star player when up 30 against Minnesota, Fran does the opposite and pulls his starters with what seemed to be around 10 minutes left in the game. He could have kept JBo in to tie/break a 3-point record or Luka to pad his stats for POY awards, but IMO his end of game coaching was spot on...get your bench players some valuable experience, don't risk the health of your starters on a top 5 team, and don't make the other program look any worse than it already did on a tough night.
