Kind of like when you’re demanding some girl show you her genitals before she goes into the bathroom and you get your ass handed back to you? Painful consequences like that?

why are lefty lib dems so soft on crime?

Let me guess...You think everyone deserves a trophy? Better yet, let's not keep score for fear of labeling someone a 'loser'?

And you're write, I will 100% physically prevent a man dressed as a woman from going into the women's bathroom. If you have daughters, which i doubt, I feel sorry that they're father isn't willing to defend them.

The Air Biscuit Offense

Born Boiler
Tool-Hand Luke Fishkill today called our offensive coordinator situation “one of the bad things in our game,” moaning about the early-season firing of a colleague, but it’s only one of the many bad things in Purdue games.

The same team that set a record for Purdue’s all-time worst loss – 66-7 – just came within 6 yards of Purdue’s record for penalty yards in a game – 171 – while seeing its QB add his own mark on The Cradle with a three-game pick-six streak.

And while Purdue’s offense sits near the bottom of major college football, things are even worse elsewhere. Purdue is 15th of 18 in scoring and total offense but ranks dead last in the Big Ten in points allowed, total defense and rushing defense and dead last in penalty yards … dead last nationally, as well.

CBS Sports clearly details Purdue’s many offenses in its piece today … https://www.cbssports.com/college-f...t-from-hot-coaching-name-to-midseason-firing/

I’d said back in December 2022 that Bobo had dropped the ball, even before he hired his rookie with zero head-coaching experience. Now we’ve given that time, and just look at what we’ve got. No turnovers but thousands of turned stomachs.

Clean house, Trustees. The Big Ten’s founding father deserves much better.

My very scientific SWAG at NBA potential:

Jacobsen - 60%
Colvin - 40%
Smith - 20%
Heide - 20%
Harris - 20%
TKR - 5%
Burgess - 5%
Loyer - 5%
Cox - 5%
Benter - 1%
Furst - 0%
Waddell - 0%
Berg - 0%

Would jump Heide to 50%. Physically he is an NBA 3 and D. Needs to extend his range and keep working on his perimeter defense.

I'm not here to downplay the success they are having right away with this new coach, they are 5-0 and have two conference wins already, but I do think some perspective is needed. If we played their non con schedule, we'd have been 3-0 hosting Nebraska. And maybe Harrell is fired in November rather than September lol

Seriously though, what a smart move buying out of that Louisville game and avoiding an early L for the new coach. Purdue may want to start looking at bailing on some future games on the schedule.

The Louisville game was bought out when Allen was still coaching to get him to 6 wins.

TI've never seen any discussion or posting that a stretch 4 has guard like skills.
Stretch just means they can shoot it outside to hopefully keep opposing 4 from sagging on 5.
Click to expand...
Would you call Gillis a stretch 4? Eifert?

I think of Robbie and Vince as a 'true' stretch 4 and I think that's what a lot of folks are looking for versus Gillis or Eifert, but that may just be me.

RIP Dikembe Mutombo

P
One my favorite famous people. He used to live by my office here in Atlanta and I would run into him pretty frequently at the local dry cleaner when I was dropping stuff off. Would always stop and talk with me about kids and life and was an incredibly humble and funny guy. Always parked his Bentley on the curb, put on his drivers cap and told everybody his rich client was busy dropping off his laundry and he’d move the car in a minute.

RIP!

While there were certainly folks defending Walters and optimistic that he'd do well, I dont remember anyone saying he was the greatest ever or even close to that.
Click to expand...
As a defensive mind…oh yeah. He was anointed by a majority of the board even though he’s shown he’s anything but.

I give him probably more credit than should be due for getting rid of Harrell as quickly as he did though. He saw a (big) problem and adjusted.

Why is it in American's best interest to support Ukraine? Since we purchase oil from Russia, it sounds like we're fighting ourselves in this situation.

If we purchase oil from Russia, it's through intermediaries (since direct purchase is banned) and it's not very much at all:

Talent wins. Saw that in last year's NCAAT final. Not only from UCONN but from Purdue's Edey.

But with experience, perhaps in the right year, it doesn't have to be NBA level talent, but maybe 2nd tier European/D League talent can be sufficient? Purdue has alot of those types.

And I agree with the above Jacobson has a great chance.
Click to expand...
I would bump Gicarri to 60%. I think there is a world where he could have an Ivey-like trajectory.

Would also bump Jacobsen to 75%. You can't teach 7'4", and Purdue has a track record with those types.

Nebraska at Purdue: MASTER DISCUSSION THREAD

Was at your place a few years back for the Nebraska-Purdue game. We won a close one. I just want to say it was my only time at Purdue and I had a blast. Purdue fans were awesome. Drunk and fun, just as I like it. You guys deserve better. Maybe Walters can turn it around. But as a Nebraska fan who has tasted the bitter pill of revolving door failed coaches I can only say I feel your pain. Try and have fun this year even if it sucks. We have gotten good at that.
