    Mason Gillis to Duke

    Certainly glad Gillis is not going to a B1G school. It's more difficult to dislike ND basketball with Shrews at the helm as he is not a gasbag with a zillion highlighters and aware that there are roads connecting South Bend and West Lafayette.

    CMP not a top 15 coach

    I think that Grant Hughes is the answer to a question nobody asked.

    Gillis

    If it's Duke he will class up the place a bit.

    Just back from the game

    Watched some of the replay on the B1G Network, but could only take the music for so long before muting -- such a cacaophonous distraction. Rob Blackman and Jake Butt did their best to overcome it with good commentary, but it was brutal.

    Mason Gillis enters transfer portal

    Mason Gillis is a great Boilermaker, a true student-athlete who sacrificed for his team, learned from his mistakes, and gave his all every second he was on the floor -- the embodiment of the "Play Hard" ethos of the Keady/Painter era. He was absolutely vital to the success of the program these...

    Rasheed Wallace thinks Zach should be the overall #1 pick in the draft...finally someone with sense.

    It's curious...from my admittedly distant view, NBA teams have been drafting "potential" for a long time. Edey has won two NPOY awards and isn't even close to realizing his potential. His footwork has gotten much better -- see that deft up and under on Monday night -- but he hasn't stacked...

    Can you imagine Paint walking to midcourt to spew on Clingan

    On his worst day Painter wouldn't come close to approaching the petulantant demeanor and manner of Hurley, who strikes me as the world's oldest and brattiest third-grader.

    Heide's dunk had to be the shot of the tournament

    Spencer looked as confused, surprised, and off balance as a defensive back who was just dusted by Barry Sanders.

    Zo on Gene

    The phrase "operate with integrity" is the Purdue basketball program in a nutshell. I love both of these gentlemen.

    EDEY back-to-back Naismith NPOY!

    Congratulations to Zach; well-earned and deserved. I love that Painter constantly emphasizes that this is Edey's seventh year of playing organized basketball. Most people who have played seven years of organized ball are sophomores or juniors in high school. What Edey, Painter, and Brantley...

    Matt Painter Interview

    Enjoyable interview conducted by Jim Jackson, who was subbing for Eisen. Painter is his usual affable self. Jackson is pure class; he is genuinely happy for Painter and Keady in particular and the program in general.

    Lance Jones was all of us on Edey's block...

    This looks like the kind of photo taken by Neil Leifer or Walter Iooss for a cover of Sports Illustrated.

    Lots of Hate for Purdue on Social Media

    To paraphrase the great Dave Chappelle, social media isn't real. I would be willing to wager a great deal of money that the overwhelming majority of the men's college basketball world is truly happy for Purdue in general and Painter in particular.

    Hear me out...

    Dan the Bastard, et al, would say "He's just a tall 3-point shooter" following the quorum call at Wal-Mart.

    I was on The Score this morning defending Painter

    Who are they crappin'?

    Watching B1G classic: 1994 vs Kansas

    Brantley would guard Zach -- he knows all of his moves! :D

    Sounds like Zo is getting back into coaching

    All the best to an all-time great Boilermaker in every respect.

    Tim Doyle says Zach should go into the portal

    I have never heard anyone say "What we really need is Tim Doyle's perspective."

    Trey Kaufman-Renn tried to ground himself in 5th grade for forgetting to take out the trash.

    It sounds as if he takes a philosophical approach to life.

    Utah State v. Purdue - Game Thread (2024 NCAA Tournament, Midwest Region - round of 32)

    Ron Jere, er, Stan Van Gundy is an entertaining listen today.
