March Madness is over, can we lock and close this thread so I can stop hearing about how god like Edy is.  FFS, lets talk about anything other than Purdue please.

Hopefully this is you reading this thread

Clingan can shoot out to the 3pt line…he also is able to move his feet and block shots. Edey can’t play drop coverage in NBa. He has no future and I’m not saying that because he is a Purdue player…would be the same if he played at IU. He will be playing international ball or be a clone of this guy…minus the personality and girl obviously.

Cling can’t shoot 

Will be interesting to see how Zach, Cling & Ware test for the combine

Depends on what you consider “ugly?”

Ugly would be worse than 4th

Jones and Edey alone made up 44% of your scoring. I wouldn’t say you’re returning a lot of production with those two, especially Edey, leaving.

More concerned with the defense & rebounding those two provided 

Berg is the mystery man….especially if Furst is gone.  He has looked solid in limited minutes.  Not sure about his lateral movement or passing

under Calhoun??????? 

I would give Ollie a maybe but Calhoun had to be hooked up 

Plus bag men or boosters don’t necessarily get marching orders from the top 

Doubt Wooden told Sam Gilbert who to pay 💰

Could get ugly next year when Edey isn’t around, and all the focus will be on stopping your guards.

True 

but it will still be Purdue guys….Indiana guys…4 & 5 year student athletes 

Can’t wait to see Colvin, Heide, Berg 

If you guys go with MR & MM at the 4&5 the hurrying Hoosiers could be back 

Both teams lose the best interior defenders & rebounders 

TKR & MR at center will be a nightmare on defense

So is UConn a blue blood now? 6 titles in 26 years, 3 different coaches.

It’s insane that they have as many as UNC…

I think we all know UK, KU, Duke, UNC, Louisville….cheated over the last 20 years.  Not convinced Nova or UConn did

One of the more entertaining parts of this season has been watching Gregg Doyell turn into a huge Purdue fan and noticing he can’t even cover them without mentioning IU constantly. 
 

Agree 👍 

remember he is a columnist so stirring things up is what he does 

Anyone who thinks it’s not 80-90% pro IU in the state is a fool 

PS. Never understood fans complaining about it….just like LeBron, Tebow, Favre, Rogers, Cowboys or Caitlin….they now what gets clicks 

5-0. Don’t blame you but I’m not trading what Purdue has right now

To borrow a phrase from legendary goalie Patrick Roy, I'm sure Dan is saying "What? They said I was an ass? Oh, I couldn't hear them....I had my two championship rings plugging my ears."

Anderson…running man ref is the new TV Ted 

8 minute TO on court interview Hurley says we have to change how we cover Edey.  What he meant was I’m going to go ape 🦍 💩on the sidelines and we are going to play more physical 

UConn is NW with NBA talent 

Long rebounds & extra possessions were the difference 

it is annoying to watch Hurley basically on the court with no repercussions F bombing Edey….kinda like Collin’s at NW

Just like NW the moving/wide screens set by the center makes it really hard to guard NBA talent 

Only disappointing thing for me is getting out rebounded and out toughed  

I seriously want Purdue to grab & hold on the perimeter….they are going to even the fouls out in the end might as well get your monies worth.  
 

Great season….great run.  Couldn’t be a prouder alum….just checked. 🌞 is up…Masters teeing off…Month of May on the way…

New coach K

these refs are scared of him 

Hate that MP doesn’t work the refs 

Hurley is on the court 

Screaming & yelling 

There is no penalty 

Strange feeling of calm and satisfaction 

Team has been up for every challenge

Furst is gone 

Someone told MP early enough that he could recruit another 7’ 

Berg or Furst ?

Well....they do have an "engineering" school after all.

They didn’t win anything….some nerd decided which team was best….which was ok for football for 100 years 😳

Is he headed for the portal?

Med School?

Not sure…his brother is a walk on 

No way he leaves without Purdue degree 

Purdue caught a couple breaks against State between OConnell & Ramadan 

Plus they couldn’t throw it in the ocean 

PS how does the running ref get title game ?  Just never thought of him as a great ref

Braden Smith looks 12 if he’s clean shaven 😂

He looks 12 there for sure

Can’t wait to see Clingan vs Edey.  UConn is so well coached imo.  I don’t see PU beating the Huskies.  

For the first time all year I’m not confident 

Zach & TKR will be a load but can Braden shake off a nightmare game?

They have NBA players and we have Zach….and a bunch of Hoosiers

I appreciate you but Purdue is ahead of IU in all aspects and have for quite a while.  Painter is a great coach and gets his team to buy in.  

A lot of things had to happen 

Still think it’s a mistake not to hire your 20+ year coach and set a culture 

Even with portal it would be nice to have a foundation to build on 

If I’m UCONN I’m laughing 🤣 

Thinking of the Butler final 

State played great defense 

Not sure how Purdue is all the sudden “the” premier team in the state 

IU has earned that for 50 years 

Braden bet on the under ?

MP might play the long game 

Keep Zach out of foul trouble….make them deal with Zach for the first 8 minutes 

Purdue has been laser focused to right the wrongs from last year

I would put Edey on Burns and not double team him. State is at their best when you double Burns and he passes out to their guards 

If they let him guard Zach  1 on 1 they are fools 

mix in some zone or press 

Double Zach & hope we go Marquette 4-31 or FDU 5-26
