Macy transferred because Bruce Parkinson injured his hand in the second game of the 75-76 season against Rutgers, who also went unbeaten the entire year. Bruce redshirted and came back for the 76-77 season. Bruce was guaranteed to be the starter and Macy didn't want to waste the year playing behind Bruce and Eugene Parker. That is the reason he left Purdue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched a lot of suckeye games this year and he does some things that make me say wow. I think rob is a great point guard and he has hit some big shots and we are much better with him. But I think carton has a higher ceiling and can take a game over. Not like a “omg” difference but in the long haul I think carton will be better. Love me some rob tho. Could of had em both! I was really upset when he choose O$U over us. Really like Carton. Him and Rob would of been nasty! Oh well.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have beaten FSU, UCONN, ND and La Tech who is a good mid major team. How many good teams have you guys beaten so far besides UVA who is totally over ranked. None of those are as good as UVA lol. They might be over ranked but they’re still solid. We also beat a ranked VCU team as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd argue both of those are superior wins to beating an offensively-challenged Virginia on your home floor. You going to acknowledge that Evansville and SFA are better teams than Purdue?

Seeking6 Posted December 22, 2019 Report Share Posted December 22, 2019 Didn't see it mentioned. Illinois lost to Missouri again in their little rivalry game. I thought Illinois was showing signs (small) of improvement but getting handled by a Missouri team who has been beat by Charleston Southern this year isn't going to soften the drums for fans who don't like Underwood. Regarding Kentucky loss and Brooks Jr.....all I know is that TJD/Armaan left the arena with huge smiles on their face, getting praised on social media, parents having fun with IU fans.....and the other? They can sit there and find UK fans ripping their son apart. Enjoy your holiday break back home this week Keion. Regarding Cal. This is his most experienced team in years. Funny how even his experienced players don't develop. Only way Cal can with a title is if he gets the uber talented guys like Davis or Wall.

Seeking6 Posted December 22, 2019 Report Share Posted December 22, 2019 Thought I saw somewhere last night or this morning that the Big 10 now has 12 teams in top 55 of Kenpom. One more non conference game and we can turn our attention to conference only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rico Posted December 22, 2019 Report Share Posted December 22, 2019 I just seen where Tennessee star guard, Lamonte Turner, is done for the year. Thus ending his college career. If true, the Vols are in trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of on the court...TN losing him makes them even weaker. We all know Kentucky will probably get this thing turned around but will be interesting to track how many quality wins they end up with come March. After 11 games they only have the 1 vs Sparty. If they lose to Louisville next weekend the next chance UK will have for a quality win is over a month away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
