9/22 from the line.

Lucky it was Purdue today.

Purdue’s FT defense is #2 on KenPom

Ayo just seemed off today. Perhaps feeling under the weather? He didn't dominate the ball like he usually does in late game situations.

A good sign that we still won despite Ayo not being dominant (by his standards)

Hey Fartface, Painter said the team did NOT eat at The Beef House.

It was their radio guy (Rob Blackman) who told Brian Barnhart that they did.

Purdue is pretty nondescript at all aspects of the game.
Going to be a long season for them.

If we could just hit some damn free throws, we would have picked up a rather convincing win.

Yep, could have won much easier, but it was never really in doubt. We played like we knew we could turn it on when needed. We abused them last year.
You also never know after a week off. We couldn't hit shit early, then got it going before half and let the foot off the gas, then put them away.

I liked that Ayo seemed to know he was a bit off, and was content to distribute rather than trying to go hero ball.

The problem with playing like they can turn it on when they need to usually comes back to bite the teams that aren't good enough to do it at will.
See the Missou loss, the Rutgers loss.

The freshmen took another step and Kofi did too.  I'll take it.  Also nice to see DW getting boards again.  I was wondering if he was dinged up a few games ago.

Was Grandison hurt? Didn’t even get in the game.

Curbelo is a small amount of discipline away from being one of the best PGs in the B1G next year. I don't think we've had a pure point who's looked this good at the 1 in a long time. Also nice to see Hawkins get positive contributions, and in the first half, too. With the run coming up, we really need Giorgi and I guess Hawkins playing more to rest Cockburn. With our depth, I worry about games like the away game at Nebraska, which we should dominate but not if we're gassed and looking ahead to OSU/MSU.

Kofi stayed out of foul trouble. That is a must for us.

He’d given us some good minutes the last couple games so it was def odd he didn’t even play. Hawkins did not play the last couple games then gave some good minutes last night. We played 8 deep without Grandison. 

Underwood alluded to Hawkins having his best practice this week. Makes me think maybe coach wasn’t liking his practice habits or attitude and benched him a couple games to wake him up. Certainly seemed aggressive and motivated last night.

Whatever the issue I hope Grandison comes back and continues to play like he has shown he is capable of because that allows us to go 9 deep and really helps us in areas we are thin. Hutch is done for the year and anything we can get from BBV is just a bonus at this point.
