Purdue has now gone further in the tournament then we have in almost 20 years. At this very moment, who is closer to winning a national championship? Purdue is three short games away from potentially hanging a banner and all you goons can talk about is how much better our program is. It’s ABSURD Purdue does seem to do it the right way. Fundamentals, defense, toughness, shooting, etc. Im not saying CAM isn't the guy. I'm willing to give him a couple more years. It is odd however that Louisville and Ohio State are both doing better than we are. CAM wasn't left with garbage. Maybe his offense and defense takes longer to instill? Maybe.

Yes, congrats! Fun game to watch. I missed most of the second half and watched the last 7-8 minutes of regulation and the overtime, but wow they did a great job hanging in there and winning.

H00sier Posted March 29, 2019 Report Share Posted March 29, 2019 Honestly , some people make this and any fan forum horrible. Purdue has done a fabulous job and had a ton of shots fall- but they’re still Purdue and this is an Indiana forum. I swear some people love when things aren’t going well and take any and every chance to say something negative about this program and Coach. No wonder why we can’t get things going .

I hope Mack took over a team that went 22-14 the prior year and went 20-14 in his first season. Why is Louisville (who we beat this year, for the record) "ahead"? Because they started ahead. Not by some magical coaching job. Give me a few minutes and I'll break down OSU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would help if both of our rivals weren't having so much success compared to us every year. Like I said above, I'm will to give him multiple extra years to build a program. I am NOT calling for CAM to be gone. Three more years at minimum. I'm ready for a program again. We are not like the other blue bloods. More like Purdue on steroids when we are winning.

It's because the majority of his statements are vague generalities that look factual on the surface.

Riverrat Posted March 29, 2019 Report Share Posted March 29, 2019 Purdue having a little success shouldnt impact any of us. They arent going to win it all. I will give credit where it's due, they are a good team. Painter has done a great job this year. For as much sh#t as people on here have talked about Edward's, he is a great college player playing in a system that works for him. Again, they arent hanging a banner.

BobSaccamanno Posted March 29, 2019 Report Share Posted March 29, 2019 Purdue looks damn good. This may be the best Purdue team I’ve seen since 1980. They’ve had a lot of pretender teams since then but this time you can see they sense they are good and I’ve never really seen that attitude come out of there. They play good ball and the right way. Painter’s stock is sky high right now as they are playing great on both ends. The parts fit together well and they are coached with a killer instinct, something Keady’s teams never had. They knew deep down they weren’t good enough in the past. This team has a different mentality. Painter summarized it very well to his team when they played us, “we are tougher than they are, we know how to win, we want it more.” No truer words have been spoken about our roster.

mrflynn03 Posted March 29, 2019 Report Share Posted March 29, 2019 IU and PU record since 2000 are pretty much identical in wins/losses, conf. Championships, tournament record, with the exception of IU having a ff4 and runner up finish. Pyewe hasn't exactly been killing it, they just happen to be more consistent. IU is the better program, CMP is a good coach which is what we have been waiting on and most likely have...finally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mack took over a team, from an interim coach, that had recruits backing off and was being investigated by the FBI. In spite of that he took his first team to the tourney and has the 7th rated recruiting class coming. Holtman took over an OSU team that was declining under Matta. Matta’s last two years they went to the NIT and then did not qualify for a tourney. Holtman took over and has taken them to the second game of the NCAA both of his first two years.

BobSaccamanno Posted March 29, 2019 Report Share Posted March 29, 2019 I mean we have guys with no heart or hustle in them, and we’ve got posters wanting to bring them back. Or other posters who think you unconditionally support kids who jog up the court, throw lazy passes, don’t concentrate etc. and that you can’t call them out. This isn’t Biddy Ball at the Y where every kid gets to play two quarters and participation trophies are engraved for everybody. This is big time basketball and the kids know what they are signing up for. If a kid tries hard both physically and mentally, he should be supported to the end. But a kid who doesn’t play hard, refuses to play intelligently, doesn’t express any care about winning, and/or disrupts chemistry, all bets are off IMO. That’s just life.

Make any excuse you want but purdue’s program is heads and tails above ours at this point. Should be obvious to anyone that watched the game tonight. The amount of heart, passion, and mental toughness at Purdue hasn't been seen at IU since Knight left town. Our program is an absolute joke compared to theirs right now. Archie needs to get this turned around and it starts next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
