Sadly, if Kofi cannot find out how to make reasonable attempts to score, Purdue will control the play all night. Perimeter shooters simply must hit shots. They become much more dangerous on offense with Edey on the bench, which is scary.

Purdue playing physical. Literally punching us in the mouth. Ok, it was an elbow from Edey, but still. Gotta be tough mentally and physically.

Hopefully Kofi is mad and going through his transformation during commercial break....

Edey is significantly better than last year. Just having him in the paint has guys intimidated. Grandison got the first one stuffed, then the next two he rushed and was short. Kofi is outmatched vs Edey. Better matchup when Williams comes in.

Kofi needs to change his approach this game—he needs to use his athleticism to run Edey into the ground, letting him get set on D is not the answer. They also need to get him into P&R.

Curbelo is what is needed, based on the first 5 minutes of this game. They are really pressing up on the perimeter players, allowing for drives. That's where Belo shines.

Wow Grandison is missing a lot of shots he is 1 for 4 and Plummer is 0 for 3 as a team we are shooting 2 of 10, the Boilers are 5 of 8 it is early hope we get into our groove
