Kiefer is horrible

In addition to his pathetic first half, Kiefer managed to miss a wide-open lay-up with 5:00 minutes to go that would have cut the lead to four points. Minnesota grabbed the rebound and nailed a three to extend the lead to nine points. Then with less than two minutes to go, Kiefer allowed a Gopher to drive around him for a lay-up. That lay-up put the Gophers up by nine again and represented the final nail in Purdue's coffin. I an definitely not a Matt Kiefer fanboy. Purdue lost the game by a score of 63-52 and falls to 4-9. The lone bright spot for Purdue, happened before the game when Gene Keady received a putter from Minnesota in recognition of his coaching career.
