Caleb Furst Profile

Pretty sure Caleb is a guy you'd like your daughter to marry. Honest, straight shooter, hard working.
I remember a couple of hoopsters in the engineering program too.
Funny you say that. My daughter is 5'10 and in grad school and the other night while watching the game, I mentioned Caleb was Pre-med and my wife was like "Oooh, he'd be perfect for Mya (our daughter)." I had to break it to her that he was engaged to a volleyball player.

Worst Purdue Football Coach in your lifetime

True, but wasn't that a consistent problem of Purdue football throughout the 70s and 80s? A lot of "aces and spaces" rosters with some high-level individual talent but rarely enough to make great teams outside of the Jim Young era.

He had an OSU-type roster handed to him. No holes. Just off the top of my 71 year old brain Dave Butz, Steve Baumgartner, Gary Nrivnak, Gary Danielson, Daryl Stingley, Otis Armstrong, and Gregg Bingham. Coached those NFLers to a 3 - 7 record!

Marquette -4.5

Missing Ighordaro and the PG (Kovak or something?) But their starting 5 of Kam Jones, Stevie Mitchell, Chase Ross, David Joplin, and Ben Gold were all major contributors last year.

They have 4 bench guys; 2 sophomore guards who didn't play/contribute much last year and aren't doing much this year, and 2 freshmen forwards (not sure how they play) but one is 6'9" 250 so I assume is more of a post guy than wing but the other one, Parham, was 2-3 from 3 against Maryland.

They haven't shot well from 3 so far this season, barely over 30% for the year, 253rd in the country. Purdue is 6th in 3pt % at 46% as a team.
Kolek.

Yeah, Mitchell is pretty good from what I remember last year. I don't know, I'm feeling pretty good about this one.

Texas A&M Corpus Christi at Purdue: MASTER DISCUSSION THREAD

I
IU fans just don’t understand about our culture in the basketball program. Don’t be too hard on him for his ignorance.
The few honest ones in that dullard toolbox down south respect CMP and the superb Purdue basketball culture he has established.

I will give 'ol Bankie this, however: he knows where to come to troll for validation....

well, if this was four years ago, we all know would happen tonight ... This year, I have far more confidence.

Speculation from Spartanwire.

Dream on Spartans for thinking that you could be the program to bully CRW out of his job. Nine other schools beat you to it!!

Marquette -4.5

Has anyone watched them much yet? I haven't other than the final minute against Maryland the other day. Kam Jones is obviously a beast, but what else is still there from last year?
