    Super Bowl tonight for Illinois

    A loss tonight (likely in my opinion) will be annoying because all the pundits will claim "this" is why Purdue can't win in March. There will be many claiming Illinois' size and athleticism are just things Purdue can't compete with, with no mention that Purdue has beaten teams with that...

    Michigan State?

    Is Wisconsin legit? If so, Arizona might be better than '76 IU, considering they summarily dumped Wisconsin.

    This what Boilermakers fans get for trashing Painter

    I wouldn't say Purdue has the "worst fans" but certainly typical fans, to be sure. A lot of it is the frustration of 40 years without a Final Four comes bubbling up after disappointing losses. We are a basketball school and Purdue has a lot of "basketball school" things checked off, but just...

    AP Poll - Purdue at the top

    Purdue's got that target on their back again. :) Congratulations to the guys for another strong start.

    Per indystar sources, Tom Allen has been fired.

    What amazes me is guys that typically get a huge buyout like that end up coaching somewhere else before the buyout is done, which usually lowers the total amount paid out. I guess they must love coaching. I don't love anything enough to lose $20M in exchange for "early retirement." If I were...

    Is Edey done after this season?

    Really? I thought he's looked pretty good at times this season. He's been effective at spelling Edey for a few minutes at center so far this year. I think Kaufmann-Renn is a potential all-Big Ten big man, if given the opportunity.

    Thought we got outplayed yesterday

    I wouldn't go so far as to say Purdue was outplayed. Marquette is damn good. I think they wore Purdue down a bit near the end but Purdue did just enough to hold on. After running a murderer's row of teams in three days, I think we should just be happy the boys were able to win all three...

    Marq vs KU

    Man, the schedule this year is brutal. Gonzaga, Marquette (I guess :D), Tennessee, Alabama, Arizona. Wow.

    Tennessee vs. Purdue MASTER DISCUSSION THREAD

    Good to hear he bounced back. He's so up and down.

    Tennessee vs. Purdue MASTER DISCUSSION THREAD

    I did not watch, but looking at the box score, if we'd have hit just 75% of our free throws it would not have been very close. 48 attempts? Good god. Tennessee had 30. I guess it was a rugby game? :D

    barn burner tonight

    I'm going to hide in the basement and avoid the game. The Boilers do better without me.

    Jones changes this team to multidimensional

    He's been up and down several times, already, in his time here. I'm sure he'll bounce back. I'm sure any struggles are not for lack of effort. I just hope he maintains his motivation so he can develop a consistency to reduce the difficult games.

    Whattup Boilermakers!

    Oh no. These guys again. :D

    Jones changes this team to multidimensional

    It's refreshing to see someone push the ball up the court.

    Gicarri Harris commits to Purdue basketball

    Nice. Painter & Co. have been on a roll the last few years. It's nice to break the typical Purdue recruiting pattern of one great class followed by several years of middling classes. Maybe they are in the process of breaking out of the associated "rebuilding" cycle every few years.

    Gavitt Games

    Despite their last couple of seasons, I still expect MSU will round into form by the end of the season. Even after their disappointing season last year (by their standards), they were still the only (?) Big Ten team to make it to the Sweet 16.

    Will Heide displace Loyer in the long run?

    Heide certainly looks good and his athleticism is tantalizing. However, there are days when Loyer looks like Larry Bird out there (and days when he ...doesn't).

    AP Poll - Purdue up a spot

    C'mon, Boilers, jump one more spot. I want to break the tie for 29th in weeks ranked #1. It's kind of amazing how quickly we've gone from "never been AP #1" to me getting greedy for more. :D

    Gicarri prediction 😁…BIG DOG #13

    I have a talent for always choosing incorrectly. Thus, I predict Georgia Tech and pain. :D
