Here’s the real question though: is that bar attainable this day and age? I don’t mean that as a knock I just don’t know how realistic it is. I don’t know if I see that type of run for any college coach moving forward tbh. Not with how often coaches can and do move jobs. Especially after guys like K, Roy Williams, and Boeheim retired. Sure you still have Izzo but he’s not long for that job and Self too.

I’ll be here win or lose.

Why? Because Purdue is a program that is about to have the second NPOY in a row. Or they run a program like Knight did back in the day that you all fell in love with. How about Purdue is becoming the premier program in the state and places where you never would’ve guessed you’d see Purdue fandom continue to pop up all over the state. No one is taking anything away from all of the success IU has had historically but I’d guess 90+% of IU fans would gladly trade places with Purdue. And I’m guessing that stings a bit. Sisley is a great example. 10 years ago, we wouldn’t have had a chance in hell with him. But with how consistent Painter/Purdue has been plus seeing a guy like TKR pick Purdue has shown that we can land guys from anywhere in the state.

The jealousy is very real.

Classy

Nojel liked him. His mom was a different story.

I think your best chance with Sisley is bringing in a new coach and hoping he can make up a ton of ground quickly. Keeping Woodson likely wouldn’t help in his recruitment IMO.

Painter shows up to watch him and now it’s confirmed that Sisley will be at the Purdue game Saturday night. Could he have shown up even if Painter didn’t come see him? Sure but there’s no doubt there’s correlation between CMP showing up Wednesday and Sisley coming for another visit not long after his last visit.

Had to be satire. No way he actually believes that.

Only 6.5 hours round trip!

Definitely odd that no one from IU was there to watch.

You think TSJ/Hawkins deserve to be All-Defense over Baldwin?

??

Illinois fans are pulling up random stats from when Rapheal played to try to show that he wasn’t THAT good of a defender. What a weird/entitled fanbase.

That’s unfathomable haha. But Underwood thinks TSJ showed out on defense lol.

Curious what your two friends think about the TSJ situation? Seems like the majority of Illini fans I see are acting like it never happened and sweeping it under the rug.

Interesting quote after giving up 97 points at home lol.

Seems like a million years ago they had a two game lead for first place haha.

Bardo really trying to say Shannon should be DPOY?! 😂😂😂

I’m sure he’ll make sure they get a cut of his NIL money.

Just hoping Lance Lynn doesn’t give up a million homers like he did last year lol.

No different than @BruceDouglas or @Purdue7 posting on here recently IMO. To me, bad timing would’ve been right after the second game against you guys.
