per Marcus:
If Gophers coach Richard Pitino is looking for video that showcases his full-court pressing style at its best, the first four minutes of Saturday’s victory over Purdue would work.
Purdue turnover. Minnesota layup. Purdue turnover. Minnesota jumper. Purdue turnover. Minnesota layup. Purdue turnover. Layup. ... Turnover. ... Layup.
Crowd goes crazy. Pitino gets hyped.
By the time it was over, Minnesota had outscored Purdue 14-0. The Boilermakers had no answer for 94 feet of pressure defense, which, by game’s end, had forced 23 turnovers — the most in a game by any team in Big Ten play this season.
“I think that stretch of four or five minutes was about as close to how we want to play,” Pitino said. “We want to create offense from our defense. We want to play a fast and fun style. But that’s not going to happen overnight.”
