So...we are a defensive team now. I love it. Think about Jayce in this system.

Hard fought. Great win

Remember a couple years ago when we had to play zone cuz no one could guard anybody?

Oh My, how things have changed.

And if MU coulda rebounded anything in the first half the defensive performance would have looked even better.

Guards with size matter.   Greg would have made a difference last year.   And he will certainly make a difference this year.    The sky isn't falling.

Crazy part is: I only think this team is in the early stages of finding its defensive legs. Team was really hesitant on O in the first half. Good to see that they started to trust.

Wasn’t pretty. Kobe the difference in the 2nd half. Piss poor rebounding performance in the 1st.

Take the win, and move on.

A rather cryptic Tower "thought" post.

Have to admit, watched the first half at a friend's, if I had been at home I wanted to post a couple of minutes before halftime that "Koby is not the answer."

Suffice to say, I'm glad I didn't. Nice debut by KM.

Saw a post praising the D in the 2nd half, and appropriately so, but it seemed to me that in the second we also penetrated more and I think that helped.

Great comeback win - I hope it gives the guys confidence and spurs them on. Wisky next.

Another item -  did Wojo make adjustments at the half? Ah, musta been the assistants.

McEwen played a great game but was surprised how much he had the ball. Figured he’d be the off guard. Markus seemed to disappear a bit without the ball.

Loved the way wojo rested Howard throughout the game and trusted the other players to perform.  Howard looked fresh as a daisy at the end because of it.

Admittedly I was a little nervous when we were gaining momentum and he pulled Howard.

But that’s why I’m not a coach

I also thought Wojo managed Markus' minutes very well throughout.

Markus just picked up his third foul and I think Wojo didn't want him to pick up a tired 4th foul. Let him sit a couple minutes until after the 8-minute TV timeout. Good coaching there.

Incredibly happy with Wojo.The team adjusted for him. It seems he has the personnel to do that too. This team is gonna be intense but fun.

I was really encouraged about that too. We turned it over like crazy in the first game, and Purdue has been good at forcing TOs so far this season. We did a great job taking care of the ball tonight

Truth be told: I liked the 1st half defense. But 40-17 in the 2nd is pure gold!

Eventually, somebody is going to make the argument that this wasn't that impressive because Purdue folded down the stretch against Texas.   That person is an idiot.
