If Indiana’s win against Purdue this afternoon taught us anything, it’s that beating Purdue feels good. No matter what.
Indiana had nine days off between games, a period during which rumors surrounding the next Hoosier head coach swirled. For many fans, this season felt like an afterthought already, with attention permanently turned to the coaching search.
The first half appeared to validate those who had tuned out of the games to be played, and then Indiana turned in one of the best 20 minutes its played in years, dominating Purdue on both ends of the floor. By the end, Indiana won by nearly 20.
