I like PaBoilers picks. This team seems to be around a 10 loss team. I’m hoping they surprise me however and I believe we can be a tough out come tourney time.

thanx, but I just copied rgarlitz's, to me we are like a typical Iowa team, we can score but not much D, so that will carry us to a decent record but when we are on the road and the shots don't fall, there's not much D to fall back on to keep us in a game

We have spent 7 years rebuilding the fanbase post Haze, and we can slide all the way back down the hill if we keep this dumpster fire coach … there are NO assistant coaches who can reverse this downward spiral.

The offense is no better with the head coach calling the plays either. Well 107 passing yards last week was impressive.

I think 28.5 is low. I'm an optimist, but my optimism has been beaten into submission this year except for the IL game, in which case, I got Charlie Brown'd.

Just like last week, when we actually moved the ball in the 1st Q, get down to the 3 and then completely crap the bed. Once we missed that gimme FG, I knew it was over.

I could see a 45-3 whipping.

How do they get the 3?

Names to consider for our next football coach?

I actually think the expectations at Minn are pretty low. Their FB program doesn't really have an indentity. At least people still associate Purdue with QBs and offense (at least, up until recently).
Click to expand...
sorry, if we're talking about expectations, yes I agree. I was coming from the angle of being a middling program similar to Purdue.

Anyone else just not watching our games anymore?

Didn't watch a second of last week's game. And not because I had to go to a wedding or take my kid to ballgame or anything like that. Just was convinced there was literal no chance we would even be competitive so saw no point in watching it. Hasn't felt like that since Hazell. Not planning to watch our last games either. Fully convinced we will lose them by 30+.

No I’m going to spend more time watching the women’s basketball team instead. :rolleyes:

or worse, that's why I thought the 281/2 is low.

Lol. Let's put the guy in charge who you can never trust what he says. You've lowered the bar so far and don't gaf. You've said you don't care how he gets things done. Lie cheat steal, doesn't matter to you. You're proud of that. When you knowingly crawl in the gutter with the trash because there's something there you want, there's no logic is discussing anything with you.

Today you say don't believe what he says. Tomorrow you'll be bragging about trump doing what he said he would. You get to have it both ways and choose which angle depending on the conversation or topic. What's the point of even doing this.

Here, let me prove a point:
Can you give 2 examples, just 2, of something outlandish that Trump said (there's a long list, so take your picks) and then followed it up with actual policy that was implemented?


Here's an example: When talking to the leader of Isis a few years ago, Trump said something to the effect of "if you harm one hair on an American's head, I'll send an ICBM up your ass". He then proceeded to show the Isis leader a satellite picture of his house.
Oh wait....Trump actually did that. Sorry, bad example.

Biden Administration Declares Trump Cabinet Picks ‘Unqualified’

U.S. — The party responsible for appointing a Transportation Secretary whose only relevant experience was an apparent love of toy trains has declared Trump's cabinet picks "unqualified."

Colvin...

ImRonBurgandy? said:
Good point. I'm not really sure if Colvin can dribble well or not, he certainly doesn't do a whole lot of it in the half court.
Click to expand...
he might never develop the ball handling to break guys down off the dribble. He's a good athlete, good shooter, but I don't think attacking the paint is a big part of his game. He might develop it marginally, but if he's not doing it by now, i doubt we'll see much of it.
Heide is the same way but Cam seems to be willing to mix it up more on the boards.

Dig City is the best Purdue sports podcast going. Coach Shondell is a great listen, and the host guy is informed, thoughtful, and asks great questions. He manages the podcast with a good pace and rhythm.
I look forward to these each week.
(And only one very brief ad in the middle of the session. Love that).

Yep, it’s really good, I’ll try to catch the last 2 today at some point.

It could be worse: Butler 56- IU 46

rgarlitz said:
I agree, 1-3 looks likely. But, then again, Painter's 2019 team started 6-5 before winning the B1G and advancing to the Elite 8. (No bad losses, though.)

Maybe you're right. We'll see what Moren does with that group. Mackenzie Holmes left big shoes to fill.
Click to expand...
Don't forget Scalia,

But yeah it's just too early in the season to know what's going to happen. I think we end up around .500 give or take a few games. We might be looking at two more wins(IU) that most of us thought weren't possible before the season started.

If Trump said the earth was flat and he was going to drive off the edge of it, you'd probably believe him.

Exactly which part of the post were you interested in betting on?

Exactly the part where you said that Mr. Reese will be "right here arguing he (Trump) should get it because he was screwed over in 20.......and still have zero proof."

$10,000 says Mr. Reese will not be arguing as such.

Mr. Reese would probably like to get in on this bet too. @tjreese

Lockport is in the state semifinals along with my alma mater (Benet Academy) this weekend. Sounds like they should meet in the finals.

I stand corrected: Aniya Warren may live in Lockport, but she attends Benet Academy, so she's graduating with my son. Saw her on a list of committed athletes on National Signing Day that the school sent out. I had just assumed she went to Lockport from the original list.
