THAT is why I'm hesitant to think that's the whole story. Even just from preseason conditioning to now he's done a ton of running and you'd think be in decent shape by now (yes, yes, matter of degrees of fitness) even if he wasn't prepared when he got here. ???
here's my 2 cents, after last year's title game I said give Furst the talk ( couple guys said that's cruel and it's not Paint's style) but I'd look for a 6'8 or 6'9 guy from a mid major w/ a scoring ave of 11 to 13/gm. so this yr Burgess could have RS, Berg a ? mark and DJ would get plenty of minutes. So now this yr we got 3 schollies tied up w/ Furst, Berg, and Burgess which will cost us in games vs teams w/ size. Burgess will be a good player though
Frank Broyles paired with Keith Jackson too......for some entertaining exchanges - I can recall a face-mask penalty call and then the replay.....cue to Jackson:
"Woah, Frank....that's your 15yder variety......he didn't just grab it.....he gotta hold of it and......gave it a jerk!"
I was a little pissed off after the play though because they got the clock wrong. He blocked it at 5, then caught it out of bounds. Clock should have been at 4, but they put it at 20. Pretty sure Ole Miss scored or got fouled on the subsequent play.
He was not prepared to play when he got to Purdue, and now he is wasting a year of eligibility. What makes anyone think that he will get minutes next year, with most everyone back. Will he waste the first two years at Purdue? Yep. 🤨
Furst gone and he will be better than Berg…so it’ll be TKR, Heide, DJ and Burgess. Burgess is going to be good. Game is a bit fast now and he needs to adjust. He had two surgeries in HS. He broke his leg last year, but the talent is there. Trust in coach B and Paint.

I think it'll be close for a bit. It's going to be cold but I think Purdue comes out ready to go. Personally I want IU to score 100 but it just won't happen. Dominate, and you have a decent shot at staying in the playoffs. Struggle, and likely out.
I’ll never understand people who could root against Purdue. If it happens then go ahead and slam the admin but don’t root against the old gold and black. Eh, I’m getting old
