Marquette ranked, we curb stomped them and beat Ville and we're not ranked and PU is on this clap trap ranking. Good grief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier98 Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 I can't believe a 4 loss Purdue team is still in any top 25. At least that guy took kentucky out. Having Marquette in and not having IU in, smh. You have to think beating Butler next weekend will do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWatShot Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 Never seen Purdue get more undeserved hype than they're getting this season. It's unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slojoe Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 IU #19 and Purdue #21 in RPI. Some consolation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steubenhoosier Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 I look at it this way. Give Purdue whatever overinflated rating you want... it really is meaningless. However, if that’s what it takes to keep Painter there , that’s a win for IU😜 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgambill Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 If we guard Carson like we did Howard in the Marquette game...no reason we shouldn't win. However...I don't count my chickens before their hatched. Rivalry games...anything can happen....some kid could go off for 30 and totally throw off any expectations.

FKIM01 Posted December 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2018 So what do Purdue fans do when their basketball team is playing like a turd in the punch bowl? Why, accuse their rival of cheating for the 402nd time, of course! https://purdue.forums.rivals.com/threads/dakich-on-eric-anderson-eric-didnt-require-100-000-to-attend-iu-like-a-current-player-did.159173/ Of course, now they LOVE Dakich but completely ignore the fact that shoe companies sponsor the vast majority of AAU teams and Caleb Swanigan was owned by Nike. ...and we have an arcb102000 sighting in the thread. Guess old arc stopped licking his wounds long enough to take a swipe at a rival with something more impressive than a national cheerleading championship.

JEFFVETTE Posted December 13, 2018 Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 So.... I actually went to Rupp Rafters for the first time today to check out the Green transfer threads (Yes, multiple threads!). I can't believe it's a better read forum than the Purdue Rivals board! I was shocked and amazed. No wonder I check the Purdue board during lunch for a good laugh!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FKIM01 Posted December 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 "Defense lives here" It sure doesn't at Banker's life. Purdue on pace to give up almost 100 against Notre Dame...😂 Lucky for Purdue, Notre Dame cooled off, but Carson is being his typical inefficient self...throwing up shots from everywhere and missing most of them.

FKIM01 Posted December 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 I'll bet 2-6 Purdue is ready to be done with the Crossroads Classic. NPOY candidate Carson has another inefficient game going 8-22 for 27 and the Toiletmakers go down again. Robert Phinisee, the player Purdue "didn't want anyway" hits the game winner for IU vs. Butler. What a great day in college basketball! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoB2011 Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 On 12/10/2018 at 10:45 AM, FKIM01 said: None of those pass the eye test. They really have one player and he's very streaky. Usually not efficient like he was against Texas. I still have to wonder how much of last year is factored in. Purdue is simply not a top-25 team based on what they've done THIS season. None of the rankings systems are perfect, but some are really good. That said, every year there is a team or two that for whatever reason remains ranked high despite struggling actually win basketball games. This season, Purdue may be that team.

Keep him there forever. This is a strong argument against hiring a former player/alum as a coach. If they have any level of success during their tenure, it's much more difficult to part ways when they don't. The AD, boosters, etc. are more likely to be excessively patient. It's a recipe for mediocrity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After removing that, Purdue falls to 170th, between Seattle at Austin Peay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
