Someone explain this to me.....

So, pretty much as I thought, you're a bleeding heart liberal.
I mean, yeh, I understand why they want to come to this country. But there is a process to become a legal immigrant and swimming across a river and coming over illegally aint it.
It sounds to me like you're in favor of open borders? Anyone can come in if they're poor and would like to get a job here?
When your first act when you come to a country is illegal that country shouldn't reward you for it. D's neither understand or agree with this. They don't understand that the world is not fair and is never going to be.

Portal open

The tough part is finding depth RBs in the portal. The guys in the portal are looking to play, and our top 2 are set. We'll never get this UGA guy, he'll go where he starts. They'll need to recruit a couple HS kids.

Got a chuckle earlier when I saw that the huge RB portal pickup by Brohm at UL showed up for spring, then went right back into the portal and has everyone in the nation calling him. Crazy times.

Biden's Easter Message....

reality 101. there was a short litmus test to see if it were possible you might have potentially more in your database than I thought, but you never confirmed it probably unaware of the lyrics. The thread was about Tranny day celebrated on Easter. You mentioned Obama started it. I showed a link to a paper that said first day for Biden. We learned you can't believe everything from the media in that exchange...course we should already know that.

I mentioned why focus on this mental illness and it appears you don't believe it is a mental illness. So at conception the sex is determined and noted by the XX or XY Chromosome by "science". It is NOT assignable at birth on feelings, but was assigned at conception by science. Those familiar with genealogy are well aware of the scientific difference since it is much easier to follow the lineage of the father's line since the Y is distinguishable from the X and since we know the gender at conception of XX is a female and that of a male is the XY. Therefore following the Y or male in a family since it is distinguishable from the female allows more accurate results. Could you imagine trying to follow ancestry on feelings and make believe? :) It is almost as though there is an attack on the nuclear family, but the dems would never attack that...would they?

Trying to "normalize" a mental illness publicly and expecting not only those a little short on mental capacity, but those of at least "normal" capacity to accept it is sick. This sickness is not confined to Obama, but in his puppet as well since we know Biden has no idea where he is...where he was, or where he may be in the future. Trying to promote trannies as something other than mental illness is going on in some schools as well and is unhealthy to children. The leadership by Biden and Obama on this issue is not only sick, but brings to question why they would do such? There are not enough trannies that are legal voters to cater to them (many more people would identify as Christians) and so why push the mental illness in spite of the science to the public and children in the school? Obviously is it isn't about the voting the block. Rhetorical, because you don't know either.

Imagine a world where people are expected to believe the abnormal are normal
The Dem's are the party of the abnormal

Willie Dean writes a book titled "LOVE."

For fans that did not see him and crave more atheletes...remember him soaring over two bigs for MSU, grabbing the defensive board, outsprinting everyone and dunking on the other end. He was fun to watch, full of surprises.
He was awesome, the face of Purdue while he was on the ream. I didn’t know until this article that he was a walk-on. I am amazed we pulled his schollie to recruit Kartelo. This after he came in and performed well.

Biden's Easter Message....

For the second time, no, I didn't, you did. If you're going to try to explain things to me like I'm a child, at least get it right.

1. Tell me you don't understand anything more advanced than middle school biology without telling me you don't understand anything more advanced than middle school biology.
2. Sex and gender are not the same thing.
Whether sex and gender are or aren't the same thing, a man cannot become a woman and vice versa.
You can play dress up, wear makeup, grow your hair, and change your name from Bob to Barb, but....biologically, physiologically and chromosonally, you are, and always will be, a man. Period.

Someone explain this to me.....

Despite your obsession with labeling me as one because I’m not MAGA, I’m not a dem and won’t speak for any of them.

As a guess, because I try to look at them as people who have beliefs and not as people afflicted with some nonexistent disease, I think they believe that less advantaged people that want to come to this country to make a better life for themselves and their families should be welcomed and encouraged…….because we are all immigrants or dependents of one. But like republicans, they go too far when it comes to implementing their policies. Government is inefficient and bloated. No one keeps their eye on the ball.

We had illegal immigration when trump was in office, but not to this degree. We had a huge fentanyl problem and human trafficking. I guess they were at “acceptable” levels because you and yours weren’t screaming about it.

Apparently trump doesn’t want any legal immigration as he constantly refers to those coming over the border as rapists, animals (not people), gang members, infestations, mentally insane, terrorists.
They are “poisoning the blood” of our country. He said that about undocumented immigrants. Do the documented ones have a different blood? Of course not. He’s saying that about ALL immigrants coming across the southern border. All of them are poisoning our blood. He doesn’t want any of them here, just like you…….unless they are content to cut your grass and clean your house.
So, pretty much as I thought, you're a bleeding heart liberal.

Why do you keep saying the democrats did nothing. Nothing was done when the repubs had total control of the government. Then recently there was a no-partisan but conservative leaning bill in congress, ready to signed by Biden. Then the Chump literally told the repubs not to go through with it.
we had no where near the illegal immigrant problem during Trump as we do with Biden.
Why? Because Biden is soft on illegal immigration.
Trump was building a wall, Biden stopped it. Why?

Question to ponder about recruiting in the NIL era......

With Purdue basketball being the flagship power-5 outlier that holds out and does it the old-fashioned way by recruiting/developing players, does it widen the recruiting landscape for high school seniors that still want to play and look for a traditional-built team? The comradery and team chemistry that they are used to in high school.
It’s a new day Johnell Davis is holding out for 3 figures and Michigan is not coming up to his numbers right now.how big is your pocket

These Democrats must want to ruin people’s lives since they are and do nothing to stop it. Good thing you don’t live or have a business on the southern border. You and your family would be terrified every day. No one is going to buy your property or business at a fair price. Police aren’t going to protect you as they are already overwhelmed. You refuse to acknowledge how bad things are for many.
Is that the depth of your reasoning?
Are the people living in the border terrified everyday? Really? If you moved there you knew you were going to live with illegal immigration every day. It may be worse now but illegals crossing the border has always been a way of life there. If your family has been there forever then you’re used to dealing with it. AGAIN, the DEGREE may be more but these residents are used to illegal crossings. All you’re doing is, like everything else you spout, is painting everything is the worst possible terms, whether it be crime or drugs or trafficking……..because you hear trump blast away every time he opens his mouth.

The dems, and some pubs, tried to change the LAW and do something to STOP it, albeit pretty damn late. The pubs said no because trump said NO. He wants to keep the problem so he can keep feeding you red meat until the election. By your logic, trump WANTS TO RUIN PEOPLE’S LIVES too. Right?

While I agree with this year, but Purdue & UConn are becoming the unicorn of the NCAA, which I don't think will last at either school. Purdue will soon become like other schools with top players searching for more money at other schools... it just hasn't happened yet, which is part of the reason us & UConn made our runs. Winning will eventually lose to greed, happens every time.

Yep, show me the incentives and I will tell you the outcomes.

Yup. Painter going about it in the right way.

We don’t have the deepest pockets so sell the kids on the basketball part of the experience too.

Only way we can compete.

I look at it as the inverse a little bit. While the top top players chase paydays and the name on the back of the jersey, we can grab kids who want to stay, buy in, develop and get better.

I’m all for the random hopping and players chasing cash as long as we do t get bit by it too much and we stay focused on what college basketball was supposed to be and not what it’s become! We weren’t getting the top ranked guys (1-20ish) anyways. Now they are focused on $ and not getting better at ball…that helps the teams that are!

We'll soon see how Painter's persona stands out for those and those parents who truly care .... money, the LOVE of it, over enjoyment of one's life ...

2024 Spring Portal Tracker

With highly-ranked Gordon and Reynolds slated to arrive soon, I had hoped for higher impact transfers, but it unfortunately doesn't seem likely this year. How many years before we can actually see an uptick in our program? Years 1 and 2 under Gearlds looked promising, but with the significant back-step this year, I'm not quite as optimistic. Few more low-performing years and we won't be in the conversation for those high ranked HS'ers either.
Purdue is looking for the likes of Amiyah Reynolds, Mary Ashley Stevenson, Sophie Swanson and Rashunda Jones to be the leaders on the court next year.

Transfers being brought in are for more complimentary roles than overtaking the young core.

They don’t. Neither do republicans. Each wants policies that reflect their beliefs and values.

The difference at this point in time is that weak minded morons like you and TJ……..actually most all of you here……..have succumbed to the endless gaslighting and rhetoric that says it’s not a difference of opinion on the issues. It’s that one side is diseased, they hate America, and they are fundamentally evil. Makes things easier for you because you don’t have to actually look at facts or take time to consider why the other side feels the way they they do……….let alone engage in dialogue or compromise to solve problems. Your world is that of ten word answers to complex questions……..that always includes sec trafficking, drug deaths and crime. Oh and the dems are destroying our country.

You don’t just say the dems are ruining people’s lives. You say they WANT to. That’s ludicrous , narrow minded, and shows a complete lack of serious thought. But its sure easy to believe if you don’t think for yourself.

Transfers give a 1 time freebe, after that unless a grad they have to sit out a year. In pro sports you can’t move around like this, players leaving good teams after averaging 30 minutes a game is ridiculous. Just watch in the next week or two Arkansas and Kentucky load up. Both pretty much lost everyone, kids like a Hepburn but better are going to split looking for that payday. Eventually people will start losing interest if this happens year end year out.
I don’t disagree but no turning back. Between the NCAA and prior lawsuits - we are stuck here.

Any attempt to change the course now is like suggesting marriage therapy when your wife serves you divorce papers. The ideas and suggestions are cute but too little too late.

I hope I am wrong.
