    OT: Michigan ring-chaser Tarris Reed commits to UConn

    Schools can't pay players. NIL doesn't come from the schools directly. So Duke having a 28 million "budget" can't include paying players. That's why I'm skeptical when I see those numbers. 20 million dollar difference is a huge number. I need to see details before I believe it.

    OT: Michigan ring-chaser Tarris Reed commits to UConn

    Are you selecting Spencer for this exercise because Uconn beat us? There were many teams that were much more active than Uconn, that weren't as successful. We have no idea why he selected Uconn. It isn't likely they were the highest bidder as that article points out. Miami would have likely been...

    Article: Who steps up for Purdue scoring?

    TKR needs to improve his FT shooting, or else he won't be playing at the end of close games. He has the potential to score a lot of points at the line.

    So these reports are meaningless, that's what I suspected.

    Ballo to Indiana

    Agree. I thought it was strange too. Something must be wrong in the program.

    Purdue Slated to play Texas A&M in Indy

    Gavitt games are over. 2023 was last year for it.

    Everyone keeps talking about how we can get around the 13 scholarships. Does anyone think that we even need or want more than 13? Even if we could figure out a way to have more than 13, why would we? We're only going to play 8 maybe 9 guys anyway. After that, it really doesn't matter. All you...

    Our scholarship grid

    There are a lot of reasons a team may "need" to go into the portal for multiple guys. 1. Guys turn pro before their 4th year 2. Injuries 3. Personal reasons for wanting to play somewhere else 4. Grades (not likely, but possible) 5. Getting turned down by players you are offering, leaving you...

    Interior Defense is a concern without Zach

    I think you're being kind with the 10%!! I was for sure one of the 95% that was basically saying "we signed who"?

    Article on Big 10 Basketball financials.......

    I'm not a finance guy, but this has always been my question when these kind of "reports" are put out there. There was one that showed Duke "spent" $20 million on basketball and PU spent 7 million. The 2 coaches salaries are a couple million different. So where does the rest of that difference...

    Cleansing of souls

    Lance, Lance and Lance. I was not very excited when we got him and thought he was basically an undersized 2 guard and we needed a PG. Couldn't have been more wrong on what his impact was going to be. Never dreamed I would be watching us in the Championship game and one of the biggest reasons...

    Purdue Slated to play Texas A&M in Indy

    Like you, I'm assuming there will be a preliminary game, but that hasn't been announced.

    Does Loyer start for next year's team?

    I don't understand those that make blanket statements like "Loyer will be a starter as long as he is at PU". He was Honorable Mention B1G this past season. How is he not someone that could be passed by others? We're not talking about Smith. I think he's a day one starter next season, but after...

    Summer Basketball Timeline...

    ESPN way to early poll doesn't have Texas A&M in the top 25. Not that it means a lot right now. Hard to beat the Arizona game last year for sure. I'm sure it's not easy to get teams to play that location with us, but was hoping maybe we would get a home and home with Gonzaga.

    Purdue may play Calipari and Shrews in 2024.

    I hope the game isn't moved to 2025, unless there is already a good replacement game. Loved our schedule this year, and hope we have another strong one next season. Where the game is played isn't that important to me, just don't want to see it pushed out a year.

    Our scholarship grid

    Agree. We've dabbled in the portal, but there is going to come a day (season) where we need more than 1 guy to fill a need. That's why I've cautioned people from being too harsh on teams that are going into the portal bigger than we have so far. That's most likely going to be us also.

    NCAA tournament team budgets

    I've seen these things posted before, but I've never seen a breakdown of what they include? This one mentions a severance payment to a former coach. This one shows Marquette spending more that UNC. That seems strange, but again, I don't know what all it includes or doesn't include. On the...

    Any reasons given for the location and date change?
