Purdue can easily go to the Elite 8 this year

Agree, they should.

Last 3 year ending losses

85-68

93-66

 

Puts things into perspective. At least one of them went to the final four.

Usually I want to watch any IU game but I hope not. My heart can’t take watching a half assed effort without Ware etc.  I’d rather have them stay home. 

It doesn't move the needle for me either. Really hope they decline.

NIT bound?

Johnson could have lobbed it up, didn’t, and Ware looked at him and shook his head and glared over at the bench. Ironically right after announcers quoted Woodson as saying Johnson’s leadership was key to the little winning streak. 

Geezus. What a clusterf*ck. 

CJ Gunn, career high. LFG

Anyone notice Ware’s look at Johnson after that missed layup. Not good. Sinking (sunk) ship. 

I missed it, was it bad?

LMAO, It took all year for Woodson to work up a Tee and he gets 2. 

30 games later, right? 

25 mins in, KW first FG. Let that sink in...

Another time when benching a player with two fouls killed us. Even though Reneau wasn't playing great it was still close until we took him out with his 2nd foul. Took Johnson out as well so what was he saving them for

Honestly, I feel MR had nothing to do with it. Missing Leal was worse. 

Just now, D-BONE said:

What will this team look like next year? We think this is cringeworthy. Ware NBA bound? McNeeley re-opened recruitment. Will we ever find anyone who can shoot outside Mgbako?

Mgbako will secure a bag, other than that it's scary to even to try and piece together what will happen. 

F*ck Tominga

We're not spacing well enough to take advantage of the double team. 4 or 5 possessions ago we had 5 players on the same side of the court. That's the issue. 

Agree 100%. Leal was the only one trying to space or cut...

Just now, John S said:

We are witnessing an absolute embarrassment.  Ware has ZERO pts. Isnt there anybody that can hit him with a strong high pass and follow for RB.   

They're double and triple teaming him...gotta hit shots out of the double team...we aren't doing it the last 8 mins. 

MR doing MR things 

Need to see better movement from MM when the post gets double and triple teamed. 

5 assists on 6 fg. Outrebounding and shooting better. Let's go. Win the next 4.

We want it. Let's win the next 4 mins.

Who do we want to win? I feel if Ohio State wins, our win Ohio State wins become Quad 1 but if we play them tomorrow and win then they become Quad 2?

I'm pulling for ILL.

I don't know about you guys but when we win tonight, I don't want to see this Buckeye team tomorrow.

I guess I will give it a little longer but it looks like once again Ballard is being to passive when it comes to free agency. To me signing your own is good if your team is a playoff team but when you are average at best you are just bring back players who finished .500. It is obvious this philosophy hasn't worked but he is unwilling to change it. This is one thing I don't understand about coaches and GM's is their stubbornness to change what isn't working. The best in the business is able to adapt and change when needed.

That's been his M.O. for years. It's what 54-60-1 will give you. Baffles me too Scott. 

All I want is say is, it's a great day to be a Hoosier. LFG.

Just get to 7-6 every year. That's all I want.

It is. IU said they’re making him a priority and they should. Screw the ranking the kid is good and getting better. He would be a great pickup. 

He will continue to climb. Especially next summer's AAU season. This will be a tough season for him being for the focal point.
