Iowa v. Purdue Game Thread

Painter has done this a bunch this yr! Keeps PJ in and he is just not good! If we get pressured we are done unless Painter can adjust or tell guys how to beat a press.
 
I hope we come up with something new in practice to use against the press. The rainbow lob pass cross court doesn't seem very effective.

I turned it off at the 6 minute mark before I had a coronary. Inexcusable the way we played this second half. I'll lay partial blame on the coach here...it's like a bunch of deer in headlights out there once the press started. Come on coach, do some damn coaching.
 
Iowa wanted it more, period. Their seniors would not be denied a win at Mackey. Effort matters.
 
we are what we are. A streaky team which goes cold for for far too long at any given time (i.e. 20 minutes of this game).

Not going to go very far when we play top notch teams.
 
Look out for Iowa. They keep playing like this and they will be the Big10 champ final four team.
 
THAT is why Matt Painter will never be a Final 4 coach. Blow a 17 point lead. At home. To a good team? Sure, but I mean wow. We know how to blow program momentum. Rick Mount back for first time in 30 years. 1 loss team. Big Ten home opener. SMH.
you are dead right. Don't care who he recruits the offense is predictable and well coached opponents are soon jumping every pass. Never switch anything up, never adjust. He was out coached in this one. Gene Keady 2.0. Sweet 16 is high end.
 
Fans have the right to be disgruntled and express it when there is an epic collapse like this. Nothing to be embarrassed about fans letting off some steam.
 
I'm ready for Cuonzo Martin and don't say he's not doing anything at California right now he would be able to recruit better here top-notch players in the state will not be leaving they would be going to purdue. Purdue will go to a final four when this is done.
 
Down 67-61.
Hell Mount scored 61 the last time they played Iowa in Mackey by himself!

Spacing is awful. Blow through your timeouts. Team looks like it never saw a trap. Good work fat Steve Alford.
 
CS helping out on the trap....just don't know why they didn't do that earlier.

Exactly. I see a lot of posts ripping into PJ and he's not had the best game perhaps but some help was needed (CMP, other players, etc).

Well, just like the game vs Butler, hopefully they'll learn. Better now than in Mar / April.
Trying to keep in mind the number of FR and SO that give the Boilers significant playing minutes.

A lot of season and learning to go folks. Chill

19 point lead. Complete collapse. This team is not really that good.
 
Well.....just got to dig down deep and find a way to fix the issues and play smarter with poise.

Move on; can't let this loss cost more games......but definitely a huge disappointment. Erasing the DVR right now.

Good to see Rick Mount back regardless.
