Great second half and effort on D. Props to Woody and team.
Where has this effort and toughness been for 4 years

To be fair. They’ve had a number of good effort games of late they just couldn’t close out. Nice to see them get one today.
Couldn't close out because of poor coaching decisions. Team should have swept Purdon't, beat Maryland and probably Meatchicken and UCLA to sit at 20-7 right now.
MM didn’t play in 2nd half, which helps the effort dept. he plays like it’s AAU.
A six million dollar team should be like 22-5 but they aren't.
That was the best half of basketball I can remember during Woodys tenure
Did you notice it was the Indiana kids playing their ass off . Some of them just don't get it.
The sign of a good team is not having a letdown after a big win. Let’s see how they play against Penn State.
I don't think it's even close. IU had Purdue spinning its tires for 20 minutes. I think it was also Leal's best game as a Hoosier ... and among Gallo's best.
IU's guards absolutely dominated Purdue's at both ends.
Which is ironic, since are guards aren’t really that fast or athletic. Don’t get how Purdue has won some of the big games they have.
Coaching and smarts, which obviously weren't on display today. That defense had the entire team discombobulated.
I agree, and I think our guys wanted it more.
He played a total of 9 minutes. I would have to go back and watch and catch whatever the cameras caught for tv viewers and see if he was ever cheering for his team while riding the bench. I’d love it if woody sat him again u til he displays a willingness to play hard and support his teammates. No defense = no playing time.
Saw the bench cheering and supportive a couple times. Looked like everyone and I think MM was in the shot. They also mobbed Woody after the game, which was a nice moment.
