Women's basketball: Purdue falls to Middle Tennessee in Fort Myers, 54-49
Purdue's three-game winning streak snapped by Middle Tennessee in the Fort Myers Tip-Off.
This is a poor team, going to be a lot of L’s this year. It’s a shame what this program has become. At least we have the men that will take up all my attention because 49 points against a mid level team is brutal and shouldn’t happen.
They need shooters. They don't have anyone who can be counted on from 3. Several are reluctant to even shoot one.
And although they tout Swanson as a great three point threat, she sure needs to improve her shot selection.
Swanson's issue is she is the only real perimeter threat, so teams play someone on her giving no help and really prevent her from getting a good look. We run a very basic high school level offense, we have no competent point guard and no dominant center to do an inside out game with. There is very little this offense does that frees up outside shooters this year. And unfortunately Sophie is not a big threat to drive. Only Bass is a 3 level scorer, and she is not great at any of those levels.
