I wasn't super impressed. If that's a top 3 team, see my post about college basketball being garbage this year. KU has no depth at all and only plays 6 guys and they have very little size.

They return a front runner for BTPOY and Haarms is already pretty solid for a freshman big. All we need is some contributions from the freshmen/redshirt freshmen and we’ll have a chance to be a tournament team. From conference title contenders to a fringe tourney team....*shudder* gives me post traumatic stress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys better hope that Carsen doesn't decide to enter the draft after seeing the rest of the starters being gone. I remember Florida championship team losing 4 starters and their point guard Green left because he did not want to stay for the rebuilding year even though he wasn't ready for the NBA.

I’d be very surprised if he left. He’s not going to enter the draft as that’d be silly because I doubt he’d get picked. Next year he’ll unquestionably be the guy and will put up big numbers.

HoagieRoll Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 any chance we could move all this to Rico's, Riverrat's, and Boiler's 'Purdue' thread or maybe GBI? Feel like any time i'm on this site theres pages and pages of Purdue talk--with a couple people defending their legitimacy and the rest of us happy they're going south. I just want to come on my IU fan board and be able to trash PU without opposition, is that too much to ask?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t think it’s them being exposed. Mathias and Vince will be all-conference guys so clearly they’re talented and PJ is a really good shooter. How is it being exposed when they’re missing open shots? Purdue has now been out-rebounded 8 games in a row. Are their rebounders in a slump as well?

He's going to be the defensive focus of any team playing Purdue next year. I don't see him doing nearly as well without four seniors to take the focus away from him. That's kind of been IU's problem this year...not enough weapons. I see Morgan as more of a threat to be BTPOY to be honest. He's at least proven he can deal with being the focus of the defense. We'll see how Carson handles that next year with very little around him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A front runner would be considered one of the best couple players in the conference and likely on a good team, can't say either of those describe Edwards next season.

And if that happens for PU. Let's see what the world of college basketball has to say about Painter in terms of his coaching acumen. Still think Archie is doing a marvelous job at IU considering the hand that Crean dealt to him. Especially how Archie has turned players he did not recruit.... around in terms of defense... something Crean never emphasized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference as I see it will be like what Yogi experienced when he had other really good options on the floor vs when he was on the 2013 team with very few other threats ready to contribute. Edwards is quite good, but there are driving lanes for him right now simply because the four other people on the floor can’t be left alone. Next year, the lane will be very clogged. I know that Purdue will have some other pieces, but Yogi had sheehey and Vonleh as well as a few very athletic freshmen and there was just not much room to operate. also, teams will have more fouls to give because Haarms (who may give himself a stroke with more minutes on the floor is much more guardable than Haas) will take them on Edwards as he drives...it’s just not going to be the same for him next year...
