per Amelia:
Jordan Murphy let out a sigh and dropped his head.
Everyone at Williams Arena knew what that whistle meant — that the freshman spark plug for the Gophers would have to take a seat and stay there for most of the first half. Again.
Unfortunately for Minnesota, while the two fouls Murphy acquired with 16:33 left in the first half of an eventual 76-71 loss to Illinois were the worst example in a Big Ten full of troubles, they were hardly an outlier.
Throughout a season marked by team-wide struggles, Murphy’s foul trouble early in games might be among the most concerning heading into Wednesday’s game against Purdue, perhaps the Gophers most physical opponent yet.
“It’s frustrating,” Murphy said. “It’s just stupid fouls honestly. Stuff that is not even needed.”
