Not an impressive feat this year unfortunately.
We are not fundamentally sound.
What the hell did we do at halftime?

I don’t mind slow starts if good shots aren’t falling, but we’re shooting ourselves in the foot with our selection and turnovers. I’m also worried we have 4 fouls in the first 3 minutes.
We have the best 3 point shooter in the country. Our shot selection the last few minutes has just been less than ideal... drive and kick.
Absolutely no excuse for coming out of a half looking like this to an inferior team.
We kept Purdue to 23 in the first half, then allowed them to score 12 points in 3 minutes to start off the 2nd.
Somebody mentioned that Purdue didn't shoot a free throw. Can't have that. Totally serious.

Getting no buckets from any of Trent, Adam or Dre is not going to get us far. Trent has regressed and won't even take shots 3 feet from the basket. Why no more Hawkins? He hustled and made things happen when he was in.
Somewhere behind free throw shooting, lack of defensive awareness, and unforced turnovers.
Put Hawkins in.
After letting them bang in the 1H. The And 1 for Williams on Kofi looked like good D to me.
17-0 run. Yuck.

Once again Underwood is losing the coaching battle. There is no excuse for us taking play after play off against a big ten team. Has the team not looked at any other games in the league this year. Start lighting these guys' A***es up!
