It has to be money, it was reported on here that Purdue doesn’t have a collective for Volleyball, girls get NIL by fans purchasing jersey/signing autographs etc, you’ll see Chloe and Hudson at either Penn State, Nebraska, Wisky, obviously they’ll get paid, bunch of bullshit really.

You’re not getting it. It’s about TV RATINGS. Aka MONEY.

That’s what a bad coaching staff will do to a talented team.

With everything that happened...the physical play, poor passing and just too many mental errors had A&M OR Purdue shot "TYPICAL" behind the arc and there were some good looks, Purdue wins and that is if either one is shooting to their average. Had that happened there would still be too many turnovers, but even with that had either team not shot above and below their average the turnout might be different. That is why on a given night with all the other issues...Purdue "can" upset a good team. Still, those odds increase when turnovers are held down and boards when shooting poorly become an even bigger issue....NONE of this is to excuse Purdue's play, but the sky isn't falling so far...

I'd like to see CJ get more minutes when either Cam or Myles (possible for Fletch as well) are not looking at the basket "IF" Purdue is struggling shooting the ball. I did just listen to Matt and he made mention that "some" didn't know what was going on. The season is young and I expect this team to grow...

I wouldn't say they can't play defense, just that they don't.

Yep, I predict he flops at UNC. The world of NIL and portal and recruiting is alien to him. Also, a 72-yr-old with a five-year contract??? I'm 76 and can tell you from personal experience that 72 is about the time that Old Fart Disease starts creeping up on you.

Holy cow. While mainly a ladies basketball fan (which you need to be tough to watch them), I watched almost every volleyball game that was televised. I am shocked those gals are going into the portal. I really enjoyed watching them play. Having been a H.S. basketball girls coach, when something like this happens, something has had to happen. In this day and age, it is either money, something within the locker room (team), or coaching. Pretty disappointed in this whole portal thing!!!!

Someone needs to step in with their check book to atleast fix this volleyball mess for next yr...worry about fixing long term later...this could set us back several years...Sux we are way behind the curve ...haven't heard any names we are getting in the Portal to fix our football mess either...thought Kmart went out of business yrs ago!
