Well, one reason could be that Braden is your best player and you want to take some of that ball handling responsibility off of him to keep him fresh. If I’m opposing coach and you don’t do that I harass him the life of the court every time up.

Another could be that Miles is fine on defense, but Harris is a lockdown defender Zach in the middle the perimeter defense needs to be better at containing dribble penetration.

This isn’t binary, there are plenty of working solutions, regardless of what the Clickbait guys would have you believe.
Exactly...several reasons, but one being just how advanced Harris is in his development and what he brings to the table on both ends. Like wait until you see Harris before you run Colvin down. Myles D had much improved late in the season last year and definitely wasn't a liability. Overall, I felt that he was better defensively than Fletch on several occasions.
It isn't a lack of improvement or lack of talent from the other options, just an indication of how talented GH is.

What happens to our program, if Walters does not end up getting let go this year?

IF Walters isn't canned at the end of our season (should be today) then I can see the program never recovering. It will get set so far behind I just don't see how it can get dug out.
I agree, players seem unsure what to do, same defense mistakes over and over, makes you think the coaches have no clue what is happening on the field. Need a different mindset for the team.

Perspective

Been to both myself - he told me the business school is too easy so he’s going pre med/business just in case
I’ll probably piss a lot of people off with this, but I don’t know why anyone would study business as an undergrad. The only exception I can think of is you want to go into accounting.

If you want to go into business study economics, engineering, computer science, data science or math, get some work experience and get a graduate degree (MBA, MS Finance or CS, PhD Economics, etc.) from the best school you can get into.

It means Colvin still has no idea where to be on D. Why do you need a second ball handler when you have the best PG in the conference and possibly the country, and want to play 5 out with 4 shooters surrounding him?

There’s talk on the other board about how good Harris is already. Brian has gone as far as to say he will probably start and that he is a great defender, possibly one of the best we have seen at Purdue.
Some people (IU fans) are saying it’s a bad sign that a frosh is starting over Heide/Colvin but Brian has explained it as Painter wanting a second ball handler next to Smith and not a knock on the two sophomores.

My question is, for you, is it a bad sign or is it a good sign that a frosh is possibly winning a starters role out of the gate?

For me it’s a good sign. We are incredibly deep with talent and we all know that Heide and Colvin are solid players. It’s going to be tough for Painter to manage the minutes with this much talent. Harris being BigDogs son makes this turn of events even more reasonable to me. We knew he was good but to see him win a starters spot right out of the gate is a very good sign that we indeed have a ton of talent on this years team.

Why Trump is appealing to a higher % of Minorities

Hell yes!

Wish I could’ve voted for an R that wasn’t a walking, talking piece of shit tho.
The Globalist Corporations chose the R presidential nominees. We had Bush, McCain, Romney, and Jeb. Bush was a parrot of the GC and had the same economic recovery plan as Obama - bail out the GC's. Bush also relied too much on Cheney, who wanted the US in conflicts and wars to appease the Milartary-Industrial Complex. Romney was probably the biggest R involved with graft. I still can't believe McCain, for seven years, campaigned for Replace and Repeal. I thought he would have a bill on Trump's desk the minute he walked him. He had nothing, and then he became the person who voted against R&R. How is it that we have been in wars and conflicts started by the US during every presidential administration, including the Rs, except for Trump?

Trump energized the economy, better secured the border, orchestrated the Abrahamic Accords, and stood up to Putin and Kim Jung-um, who was Obama's biggest fear, along with Al Qaeda and ISIS. Seriously, is there anyone here who wants Harris negotiating with Putin, Xi, Kim, Israel, Ukraine, and the Muslim leaders instead of Trump? You know in your heart Trump knows how to flatter these guys and keep them in line. The masterpiece was when he excused himself from the dinner table, went and dropped the biggest bomb in the world on the Taliban, and then came back and had dessert with Xi and told him all about it.

Why Trump is appealing to a higher % of Minorities

In 2017 after Chump became president, a conservative that voted for him called the conservative SiriusXM radio station. Apparently he hires the illegal immigrants for his drywall business. He did say that if Chump deported all of the illegal immigrants it will turn the construction industry upside down. He went on to say that a lot of these folks are skilled workers. In recent years in my neighborhood, every neighbor that got a new roof had Hispanics, from whatever company that they hired, install the roofs.
What DJT says about deportation is that he will first go after gang members and those who are criminals and mentally ill and deport them first. That will take his second term to accomplish but bodes greatly for others.

Don't fear them but.....

Pardon all J6ers.

Get an AG that will go after his enemies. States, media, members of congress. Democrats. You know, the "enemy from within".

Withhold aid from Ukraine to try and force them into a deal.

Withdraw from NATO.

Reinstate schedule F and install loyalists throughout the government.

Appointment incompetent foreign policy staff based on loyalty.

Find loyalist generals that will follow his domestic orders. Like shooting protesters. This is the one I fear.

More massive tax cuts for his buddies, blowing up the debt.

Herding non citizens into camps for deportation. They will not all go peacefully. Has he thought about that?

Lower or dismantle environmental regulations because he loves saying drill baby drill.
Sounds good to me, but my guess is that with the current trend against Kammi you're pissing your pants.
