He came into an absurdly difficult situation and is making very clear progress with the team. Good for them.
However, given his inability to coach offense I view their ceiling under him as “annoying team that knocks a few big teams off occasionally but doesn’t reach the tourney.” He has my respect as a transition guy, but perhaps they’re still one away from making the step they most desire.
Not much talk about the other game tonight, Indiana @ Maryland, which I find quite a bit more interesting. If Indiana can steal it they’ll put themselves in a nice position in the conference.
Agreed but I’d be nervous. I like Purdue a bit. I like their sets often and guys get open at least in the three games I’ve seen, just not hitting them.
