Purdue deserves a National Championship. They have been a good to very good program for the last 40+ years. I also think that if they win a Natty, that will take our rivalry up a notch. 

No it won’t. IU isn’t coming back. They don’t take it serious and you can see that with their hires.

Purdue is going to screw around and win a natty, aren’t they?

They definitely screwed around but that was an awful team they played.  I had watched 4 NCST games before their conference tournament…and this is the team I saw. I knew they would have nothing for Purdue.

I'm torn between them not coming back because of incompetence or because they don't want too.

Not with the defense they played today. Their guards got cut up by DJ Horn until it was obvious NC State was gassed. UConn/Alabama have multiple guards ready to hit those shots.

That was about as poorly as I have seen Purdue play all year. And it never really felt like they were in any danger at all.

It was like a B1G game…like playing Penn St or something. Played right into their hands.

I'm not rooting for them and I think UConn will win.  That said, I'm not going to become suicidal if they win. I have close family and friends that are Purdue fans.  My kids went to school with TKR.  I've known TKR's grandparents for over 40 years.  Sometimes people around you being happy is more important than a basketball rivalry.

If I’m UCONN I’m laughing 🤣 

Thinking of the Butler final 

Butler didn’t have a the 2x National player of the year…surrounded by 36%+ 3pt shooters. Purdue plays like today they get blown out…but they play a really good game and they can win. UConn could just as easily lay an egg and miss everything like NCST did.

Actually, I’d like to see them win…I just don’t think they will.  I’ll always root for an Indiana/B10 team over the rest of country, so good luck Purdue.

Congrats to Matt Painter and the Purdue faithful…they’ve endured a lot and put in the work to get here. They run a respectable program and represent Indiana basketball the right way. 

Yep. They do it the right way. They represent everything Indiana used to be.
