It was coaching. Hartwig even said it was the most talented he had played with. Most of the times we got beat bad it was scheme related. That was my observation at least.

And the opinion of most who knew a lick of ball.

This team was talented. Last years team was talented. Enough to win 6-8 in 2023 and 4-6 last year, even with a tough schedule.

Likely won't take pay again. Only President not to do so.

Assumed his duties in Nov. & has been rolling ever since. Driving the extremist left wackos nuts as we have seen......at the capital, on the Internet, in the news and even here. It's all 100% entertaining.

Former commit "going through it right now"

Catchings had 3 fouls in 7 minutes of action last night. I keep track of boxscores from BYU (Catchings), Colorado State (Morton) and Duke (Gillis). Gillis had his best game last night hitting 4 3's in about 15 minutes off the bench.

Purdue definitely dodged a bullet with Catchings...I was critical of Painter not guaranteeing minutes...but now see Catchings as a disruptive cancer on any team. Until he grows up...he will not play in the NBA.

Furst at last

15 points, 6 rebounds, 4 steals and a block against those Husky boys … and 5-0 as a senior starter.

I’ve argued on this board for years that all Caleb Furst needed was more minutes. Not even a Mr. Basketball can do crap in 180-second cameos. Besides, stats rarely do him justice. He’s a 6-10 dude who’s very mobile with a nice touch, quick hands and superior intelligence. His presence in the paint alone alters drives and shots, and his ability to quickly position and block out big men routinely sets up teammates for rebounds. And do take notice of his repeated flicks out to Smith for steals and rebounds. Take Buddy the Elf and Angry Elf to Rome and watch them pick pockets.

Too bad he’s too nice of a guy to tell you people who wanted him gone to stick it. Be glad he stuck.

believe it was a career high in points. He’s been playing excellent in 2025 so far and has been HUGE. Unfortunately for him, he was stuck behind the NPOTYx2, Gillis and TKR. His skill set was different than the latter two and just didn’t complement Zach the way they did with scoring.

But that doesn’t matter now. Time for him to shine and he has. Hope he keeps it going!

Purdue at Washington: MASTER DISCUSSION THREAD

Boiler Buck
Went to bed @ half, and watched second half @ 5 am. Great way to start the day.

Even better I woke up healthy with no more Flu.

D was there all game, Cox and Furst were particularly good defenders. Smith was good defender in H2.

Glad CMP found the answer to what they were doing in H1......and the kids executed his plan well. Great game by Furst. Glad to see Loyer wake up in H2.

Also great showing by Purdue faithful at Washington. Likely, Purdue engineering grads at Boeing and other Corps Love the fan presence there.

Any idea who Coach Painter is talking about?

Everyone keeps talking about NIL. Don't forget that starting in Spring of 2025 schools can directly pay players with a cap of 20.5 million. Bobinski has made it clear PU will have the 20.5 m to spend.

I think the idea that we can't possibly end up at least in the top half of the conference for NIL is wrong. We will have the money if we are willing to do it. No one is suggesting we are going to spend more than the biggest schools, we just need to not be closer to the bottom.

Hartwig potentially gets a late round flier too. And here I thought the OL stunk…

Or…

Maybe it was coaching like somebody said on here for the past 2 years. The amount of talent Walters squandered was absolutely monumental. Something to study.

Remember when we took a RG and moved him to a position he wasn’t as good at AND we took a starting job from a 3 year starter at RT so he had to go play at Louisville? I do.

And then the apologists hitched about how awful the line was Brohm left? Walters created these problems himself. Not the previous coach.

I wonder if they cleaned the floor at half since nobody slipped. I realize they had a sticky pad before the half, but that didn’t clean the floor

Maaan I’m just glad we got outta there with no injuries…reminded me of the barn in Minnesota.

Ugly first half, decent second half. Find a way to win the ugly ones.

On to Oregon for a HUGE test.

Yes, but so will everyone else and I’m guessing they aren’t able to get the guardrails in place to keep the Nil that’s over and above that to still happen. So we will likely still be behind some of our peers.
