Do you think Painter would have a 1 on 1 with Smith and say "What do you need me to get you from the portal?". (meaning, what does Painter need to go get in the portal to makes Smiths job easier and build a NC team)

That's a great question. My guess is that's not the type of conversation Painter is having with players but I agree that it makes sense to illicit feedback from your senior star point guard.

Big Ten

Indeed. Oregon looks good. But we will see how they shake out in the B1G schedule. This has been an ongoing problem for the Big Ten. Over the years the amount of elite talent has started to drop off. A lot of it going to the SEC. The thing about the Big Ten is that coaches are good at game planning against other Big Ten schools. It isn't like Big Ten schools aren't good, they just aren't elite. Like the past two years there was Purdue. There have been great years throughout the 2010s where you had Michigan State who was nationally elite. Ohio State. Purdue. Wisconsin. Illinois a couple of years. Indiana a couple of years. Maryland a couple of years. Michigan. Just don't have that elite talent and nationally elite teams. Oregon, UCLA and Michigan State look like the best. Michigan and Purdue right behind that or even in that group.

You are an idiot. Georgia actually looked like the better team, just made some mistakes, largely by their backup qb. Indiana was dominated by ND.

Since you don’t seem to be willing to answer, I will:

Indiana lost to ND by 10. At Notre Dame.
Georgia lost to ND by 13. At a neutral site.

I’m not a Purdue STEM guy, but I am sure that losing by 13 at a neutral site is a larger loss than losing by 10 at a team’s home stadium.

To not understand that you’d have to either have trouble counting, or be Paul Finebaum or Herbstreit level delusional.

I know it’s been 10-15 years since we’ve beat you and all, but you REALLY underrate the Illini.

That’s fair. I guess vs last year there doesn’t look to be two top ten teams, but who knows how it will shake out.

To your point, prior to last year it’s been since the ‘20/‘21 season since the conference was really strong at the top, with IA, IL, OSU and Michigan all finishing in the top ten that season.

And we all saw how that turned out!! Meanwhile people said all year how bad the Big Ten was in 2005, and we had 3 Elite Eight teams, 2 Final Four teams and 1 team in the NC game. I just think beyond the obvious (e.g., the SEC looks really good this year), it’s really hard to say a conference is up or down.
