Kind of hard to talk crap about Painter when you are pumping Miller.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He licks his lips like Jabba the Hut and I find it endlessly annoying, but he is a good coach. But, these stats are way out of context. He was spotted six games by the Sampson debacle when we were playing baseball players and walk-ons...and now he has had this run. The assessment is that he owns Archie, not that he owns IUBB.... Stlboiler will have something to say about my position because he believes every commercial Purdue has ever bought and paid for. He is the kid who went on his visit in high school and believed everything that the tour guide said about life at Purdue and never looked back...

IU Scott Posted March 7, 2021 Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 Since Painter and his family were huge IU fans back in the day maybe he would be interested in the IU job. LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted March 7, 2021 Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 Lol funny that they started with 2009 when we came off a reset. How disingenuous is that? That’s why we have lies, damn lies and statistics. How did he do against Mike Davis? Idiots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted March 7, 2021 Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 Looking back and how fast things can change because going into the first MSU game we were 12-9 and 7-7. We get up 19-6 and making MSU look bad and things were looking really good. Since that moment everything just fell apart and the team totally collapse.

It sucks but it is reality. I don't think that was cherry picking at all. Edit to add...I went back and looked and he is like 20-9 against us as a head coach I believe.

Well then tell the whole story. 20-9 is still damning. I’m totally on your side that we are a total mess and the administration deserves every ounce of criticism. You and I don’t deserve any heat. We would not have failed like this. The embarrassment is on the administration and the slapstick reel of idiocy they’ve presided over. But I do see that statistic as the definition of cherry picking.

It sucks but it is reality. I don't think that was cherry picking at all. It's true that he has owned IU lately, but that post was still some major cherry picking. They are already not counting the early years where he lost to IU plenty - then they list another record "if you take out the 2012-13 seasons". LOL. It's magic, if you don't count out the stretches where IU was better, Purdue wins almost every time! You can also spin it the other direction. If you take out the dreadful Archie Miller era, and take out the first three years of the Crean total rebuild, Painter has a losing record vs IU. Is that a meaningful statistic? Painter overall has a winning record against IU. It's fine to just list the actual record without the spin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADGERVOL Posted March 7, 2021 Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 I have this glimmer of hope we might be on a new path soon, and yet that new path could end up failing as well, or we don’t get on the new path, or...gah...it sucks sucking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it helps when you are sharing suckiness with others who feel the suckiness, live the suckiness and truly understand and can empathize with the suckiness. This is a deep bonding going on over all this suckiness. ❤️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the 2015-16 season it was 9-9. He has obviously dominated since then (Archie era + last year of Crean). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
