Love our Coach but his stubbornness regarding a couple of things that occurred in our last game has me puzzled. 1) his reluctance to play a zone to protect a player in foul trouble showed it’s ugly head, true if you have NOT practiced it you can’t just change and put it in during a game and 2) when it is a bad night for a player he sticks with them through thick or thin. His stubbornness in these two areas might just be his downfall in Purdue progressing in the Big Dance in 2024.
NO GOOD REASON comes to mind why he cannot do both these things since he has to practice against a zone all season and if they are not it is a flaw by him and the team is deep enough to substitute for any player having a bad game! He is too good a coach not to see and correct these two things!
Come dance time he might HAVE to protect a player having a good night but in foul trouble to keep him in the game!
