I did not see or follow this game, again, I had something more entertaining to do than listen to us being utterly incompetent and looking uncoached.
Moren is a very good game coach, good at player development (for her top 6-7 players only though), and good at gameplanning. Recruiting is her shortfall and frankly, IU is only a little more talented than Purdue is, the difference is quality of coaching and experience more than talent.
Individually for Purdue:
McCarthy is getting worse as the year drags on. 5 fouls in 15 minutes, only 2 rebounds and 4 points. Bad outing against a team that is weak in the post.
Collier, 17 minutes and did not even attempt a shot. Playing her is forcing your offense to play 4 against 5.
Jones and McKenna rode the struggle bus together, getting only 5 points each on 6 and 5 shots respectively. McKenna did at least pull down 10 rebounds.
Lombard and Puryear were our only two players in double figures, with 10 and a team high 15 respectively. Puryear also got 8 boards, but led the team with 6 turnovers and had 4 fouls herself against a collection of poor post players for IU.
Swanson is so desperately in need of good coaching it makes me want to cry, 8 points on 8 shots, 3 rebounds 5 turnovers and 4 fouls.
Bass got 9 points on 4 shots and 6 free throws, but only 1 rebound in 24 minutes. Seriously not earning her scholarship with that kind of stat line for a power forward.
Petree only got 5 minutes, and did nothing with it, but at least she wasn't gunning it up every time she touched the ball.
Gearlds once again gets an F- for her coaching; in game adjustments, game prep and player development all suck massively under this coaching staff most games.
