Ah, so I'm only half a day behind. Still, we aren't laughing at this half as much as we should be. Don't forget, Purdue was literally the only team that wanted to keep the crossroads going despite having the worst record. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can do what you need in the weightroom in 30-45 minutes. Some guys look jacked some don't. I've known some pretty strong guys that looked like normal dudes. Pretty easy to tell when discussion on weight training comes up who has experience and who doesn't. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two of the best players in Durant and Curry bodies don't look jacked up and that hasn't kept them from being great. Are you sure about that? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 Wonder why Purdue does try to go back and have the Wooden tradition like they to. When I worked for the state, my boss was a PU fan and we went to the Wooden a couple of times. One year they beat #1 Arizona and the other year lost to Stanford. The other game always had two other top teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I were I Purdue fan I'd be pretty disappointed with this.

I keep hearing how much better shape today's athletes are but why are injuries a lot higher today than in the past Would you like me to start pointing out your grammar/spelling errors like you seem to like doing to me ? 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn’t be surprised if the teams in it in the coming years are higher-quality tbh. More to come but that’s what we’re hearing on our end.

Purdue would have been better off finding another power conference team to have a home and home series. I think this (for this year at least) was mainly set up to be a Loyer versus Loyer matchup. Teams aren’t locked in like they were for Crossroads Classic. Edited June 28, 2022 by Stlboiler23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We carried the water for that thing. Everyone knew it. Just glad we moved on so we can get more national exposure like we have on the docket. If I'm Painter though I'm trying like crazy to get an obvious upgrade asap. Purdue (if they are who think they are) should be embarrassed...even with the Loyer stuff which I don't buy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why should we be embarrassed? It’s one game and it’ll be different next year. What’s not to buy re the Loyer stuff? Painter has scheduled games in the past for certain players/previous coaches close to their hometown/circumstantial ones like this/etc. We’ll have plenty of good matchups in the PK85 tournament.

Why not just...not schedule this thing this coming season if you're going to have better teams the following seasons? There's absolutely no silver lining for this move. Regardless of internal discussions, the optics are Purdue decided they're gonna host their own crossroads classic and went out and brought in...Illinois State.

Those are fair questions/points and I’m not sure what all went into it. Plenty of questions that I’ll never know the answers to. But in the grand scheme of things, I’m not worried about it.

Not sure why any IU fan would question any other schools non conference schedule. Saying IU has had a cupcake non conf schedule for quite some time is an understatement. I am all for finding reasons to make fun of PU but this argument a little weak 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
