Awfully hard for me to get excited about a Purdue loss with the current state of affairs that is Indiana Basketball. I do love you dislike of the Toiletmakers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My great grandma God rest her soul used to say, "if ands and buts were candy and nuts we would have a party." Grandpa would follow up with, "If frogs had wings there asses would not hit the ground when they jump." I can say all those excuses to my Purdue buddies but when then send a pic of PU at the top of the conference and us at the bottom that is all that matters. Side not for you HTD. My best friend is a PU grad and when the women's team won the national championship I sent him a then VHS recording of it with a nice homemade banner letting him know that would be the only 1 he would ever see in his lifetime. He and I go back and forth and unfortunately I am on the receiving end far too long and am tired of it. I follow you in the hate for that school I promise you that.

The schedule was on Purdue's side early? Even though we played the majority of the top teams in the league? Congrats I guess? I don't even think most rational Purdue fans expected Purdue to be looking at a possible 3/4 seed in the NCAA tournament after losing 4 senior starters. Painter has done a really good job so far this year to get Purdue in this position. We have one of the toughest schedules in the country so it's not like we've been playing cupcakes and winning.

Painter is doing a good job with basically a one man team. They won't do anything in the tourney again, but we'd certainly switch positions with you.

Haarms, Eifert, Eastern, and Cline have stepped right in and they didn't miss a beat. Add to it Williams and some other frosh that are playing quite well in the minutes they get. I would say Painter has a pretty well rounded club......their one downfall might be that Carsen tries to do too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He takes some of the craziest circus shots sometimes and not surprisingly, despite scoring a lot of points, his efficiency has suffered. He's now dropped his field goal percentage from 45.8% last season to 40.6% while raising his attempts per game from 13.5 to 19.4 a game this season. Last night was the first time in awhile that it bit him though. He would have been better off in the 2nd half being a facilitator, rather than taking a bunch of difficult contested shots. He might have lit a fire under Maryland when he dunked in the first half and mugged at them going back down the floor. Then again, it probably didn't make much difference. After scoring 17 in the first half, it's no surprise he got a lot of attention in the 2nd. He's going to have to learn to dish more to be really effective at the next level, because if he thinks Maryland's defenders are good... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And every team is going to target him(as you have said in the past), he needs to get past this "hero" stuff and play the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be more curious what your definition of success in tourney would be. Last 8 years Painter has 2 S16's, 2 First Round Exits, 2 Second Round Exits, and 2 years he didn't make tourney at all. Add those up and the average is somewhere around what win 1 game and out? If I were a Purdue fan I'd be ecstatic with a S16 because that's as far as Porky has ever gone. What say you?

Last year, I expected at worst a S16 and probably an Elite 8 but that was before Haas got hurt. This year after losing what we lost before the season, I’d probably have said make the tournament and win a game or two possibly. Wouldn’t have expected a S16 going into the year with all the question marks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well with his best teams, they get to the Sweet Sixteen. So with this team, I see round of 32. Don't get me wrong though, IU would kill to make it to the tourney, let alone to win a game.

That wouldn’t surprise me. It sucks that of all of his best teams, I think only one didn’t have a significant injury. The what could’ve been is annoying. Two Hummel years and then Haas last year.
