Everyone was against FDU. He’s the only one that seemed to remain that way
Lance Jones was so supposed to prevent that mode and was in it most of the game

Got the W, rested guys, Cam and Colvin got some nice PT,
Let’s refocus and make Sunday Funday!!

Seems like the team’s collective sphincter loosened up in the second half. Played much better on both ends.
I felt like the nerves were a factor in the first half, but not in the second. I expect them to be more relaxed on Sunday.
Biggest thing for me is Gillis. Dude needs to fire and hit the 3's like @Ill. No more hesitant Gillis for the rest of the year.
Also great to see no Morton until victory is assured. Hope Colvin can keep gaining confidence.
Overall just thrilled to get out of there with a win and no injuries.

Gillis needs to shoot next game. Undoubtedly. Him and Jones need to step it up
I'm not a fan of Morton, but if we play a team that has like 2 or 3 6'6 , 6'5 guys at Guard he should see some PT
3 assists for Colvin. Figuring it out.
Tremendous post-game coverage of Zach and Purdue. ‘Bout damn time!
postgame in studio, never heard so many nice comments from Seth Davis towards our team
Must have been an autocorrect but your post you replied to just said “Colvin” and didn’t insult either player lol
I didn’t even insult Colvin, but missing a dunk, a three and then letting a rebound go off his face was a rough sequence
Seth Davis has been singing our praises for some time now. He has openly said he is cheering for PU to win it all. Very unusual for a talking head to be so openly rooting for a team. I love it
i like how someone finally admitted that zach gets fouled on almost every possession
Better 2nd half. Hoping that first half was just some nerves because it wasnt pretty. Edey just looked like a man that wasnt going to let them lose this one all night long. Just a dominating effort. Was hoping they would set one up for Gillis before the end of the game. He needs to make a shot. Did not look good at all tonight.
was happy to see Zack go to the drop step and go right 2 times in the 2nd half, want to see more of that
Lots of them didn’t play well, but Gillis was the only one hesitant to shoot against FDU.
fair point. I guess if you told me one player would completely not show up again like last year, he wasn’t my prime candidate. But maybe he should have been
Would have liked to see him get back in to try to get something positive done.
Trey wasn’t going anywhere. You don’t see anything he brings?

May as well cut the nets down because this feela like winning the championship LOL. On to round of 32!!! No idea who we better match up against but tcu scares me so I guess go utah st?
I feel like Gillis plays better next to Edey and TKR plays better without him.
And Gillis finishes games with Edey generally. Not saying he brings nothing but he looks better in lane himself without Edey clogging it
I feel like Gillis will be back to himself on Sunday. As much as tonight was a mismatch, it was important to get past it because of last year.
Biggest things TKR brings in the starting lineup:
1. Versatility in who Edey's has to guard
2. Increases Purdue's offensive rebounds
Gillis is probably equally good on 2 but not so much on 1.
Okay that was discussed at the start of the season . Think he would produce more if he got more than his 20+ minutes? Does Trey bring things Mason doesn’t? Could Trey also bring things Mason couldn’t depending on the team? What do you think Matt sees in playing Trey this year or do you just think he is afraid Try would leave?
