Purdue vs. Texas A&M: MASTER DISCUSSION THREAD

We are clearly not an elite team this year, esp with our center injured. Though even with him Im not sure how much changes.

This is somewhere between a 20 and 30th ranked team. Way too many weaknesses especially size, rebounding, and turnovers. Those things are only getting more apparent the more games we play.

Auburn next who is better than AnM in every way, amd a loaded big ten with west coast trips and no easy road games, and its going to be a much higher loss column count than we have seen in quite a while

Issues

This team needs the opposition to miss shots. But they allow too many good ones. They’ve got to get so so so much better defensively, which everyone knew would be a thing. But it just looks so bad when we have to take the ball out after a made basket or free throw. It’s just Braden being hounded and handing it off 40 feet from the basket, then back to him, and then nothing.

Frustrating to watch us get dog walked twice already. But we have a good coach and good players, so let’s find some answers.
Defensively guards still can’t stay in front of their man. Offensively, if Colvin and Heide can’t get their own shot it will be a long season. Heide has become typical rebound and shoot 3s guy. He needs to use his athleticism.
