Is he dinged up? Seems to be forcing it a bit inside. Really like TP's ability to penetrate. Will need better play from Tony if we are going to do well in the BIG.
What's going on with Tony Perkins?

Probably the same thing that happened to Sandfort or any other player. Ebbs and flows.
Its a long season. There will be less favorable matchups some games, injuries, poor shooting games, or just plain "off nights" for any player. Maybe several in a row. There might be a handful of superstars that are consistently good in every game in college.
Its a team game.
Its a team game.
SEMO’s bigs were not so good but they had a couple of guards who could play for anyone. I think they made it tough for our guards. I think Tony is fine but they made him work for what he got. He did a nice job of distributing the ball as well.
Tony had a thigh injury 3 weeks ago. Other than the WI game, he hasn't shot particularly well since.
Hope it isn't a lingering issue. We'll really need him down the stretch.
Agreed. He might be recovered from the injury but he just got off from favoring that side while he recovered. I was hoping that he'd take some time off between the last 2 games and get right but he still seems to be struggling.
He just seems to be pressing a bit lately since his injury and his shot isn’t dropping which frustrates him and causes him to press even more. He’ll come around to his usual form soon, I’m confident in his abilities.
It's the green shoes. I can't stop looking at them. Maybe he can't either.
Hes a solid down hill driver, a decent not great ballhandler. If you're not a great ballhandler its difficult to consistently shake defenders.
Hes being defended well, getting frustrated and forcing things.
Has nothing to do with a thigh injury in my opinion.
There are plenty of guys who can score, especially when Murray returns. Just keep the defensive intensity and keep the ball moving on offense. Don't force the issue and just be ready when good looks come.
Memory says his rebounding is way down too. He can be a very dominate player. Hope he gets it humming soon.
