6.5 min of scrimmage yesterday…

Sleepers said Brian predicted Gicarri and Berg in starting 5 with Braden, Fletch and TKR.
Thought they said Berg or Jacobsen at C and yes Harris starting. Does that mean Colvin and Heide have not improved or Harris is like his father. Loved Jacobsen’s use of left hand.
 
To me, it's an indication of just how good Harris is.

Any time a frosh can move past an experienced player....he's a great one. Likely an all B10 Frosh. But we are talking about 2 phenomenal experienced shooters here. So it's a major, major leap.

Will Harris make that leap sometime this season? We will see. Kinda makes watching an already great team, even more fun....huh?
 
Casey, dub?? Any insight? The sleepers guys said that they really find it hard to believe. Carter says he thinks Colvin will start and most likely DJ. They both said if Gicarri starts it’s a bad sign for Purdue in that Colvin and Heide didn’t make a big jump and aren’t as good as expected!

Sleepers aren’t too smart. If Harris starts over Colvin it’s because Painter wants a second ball handler on the floor with Smith. That’s not Colvin or Heide’s game.
 
Not sure what has happened to Furst. He started his Fr year and looked like 6'10 match up nightmare. Ran the floor, hit 3's, etc. Granted, his playing time has been significantly cut, but seem like Painter has lost trust in him.
Coach Painter has stated that after the loss to FDU he decided that he needed more skill around Edey and that a couple of guys (Furst and Morton) had to give up minutes for the team. TKR and Gillis gave Purdue a better chance to win than Furst did, but with Edey and Gillis gone, there are minutes available for Furst to compete for.
