Knecht had his chances there at the end. Just couldn’t stay hot. Hard to expect him to beat a 31 win team by himself though.
Knecht hasn’t made a bucket since the 7 minute mark, and we just keep forcing it to him. Just bad offense.
Is there any prevailing sentiment or theory about why Edey is officiated this way? I don’t understand this.
Not going to happen. One of the most fun seasons we’ve had and you can’t hang your head on this tournament but I still wanted more.
We waited til 30 seconds to finally go at Edey, and instead of going AT him, we tried to go with him to the basket on our hip. Just dumb.
They’ve got the best college player in the country. We’re giving it a good fight but we needed A+ games from everybody and we got them from about four guys.
Gonna be maddening to watch the championship game, knowing good and well the game isn't going to be called like it was today.
A few thoughts: 1. Zach Edey, Matt Painter, and these referees are a disgrace to the game of basketball. 2. Awaka and Estrella did as well as possible under the circumstances today against Edey. 3. Aidoo should have to reimburse the university for his scholarship. He can drop the payment off on his way to the transfer portal. 4. Vescovi's minutes were wasted minutes today that should have gone to Gainey. 5. Dalton Knecht is a better basketball player than Edey. Anyone that questions that doesn't understand basketball on a fundamental level. 6. Purdue fans are an odd mix of Kentucky and Texas A&M fans. 7. I hope we get the opportunity to watch Rosie O'Donnell play the part of Matt Painter in a movie titled We are Purdue.
