Just a few days removed from one of the most disappointing performances he’s had as a Golden Gopher, local standout junior Swiss Army Knife Amir Coffey decided enough was enough.
Perhaps after reading some much needed bulletin board material, Coffey tied his career high in points and thoroughly dominated the proceedings in Evanston at a morgue-like Welsh-Ryan Arena. Aggressively attacking the basket, crashing the boards, and finding wide open teammates when collapsed upon, Amir put together the type of game he is capable of on a night-to-night basis. The result was a double-digit 62-50 victory on the road in the Big Ten.
