I like it. We will learn a great deal about our team through that schedule. If they emerge undefeated, that will bode well for Purdue come March tournament time.

Tbh doesn’t even matter if they’re undefeated—however we shouldn’t lose too many non conf games with the roster we have back.

I’d like to see the team gel and play good bball…hopefully defense is much more improved.

Downside….5.5 months until first game 😂

I agree it’s a solid slate and a good test. Depending upon who the last team is for the preseason tournament, this Purdue team could easily drop one or two out of conference games and still be in great position for a one seed in the NCAAT.

I'm with you on this that's a tough schedule and everyone will have knocking off Purdue as a feather in their cap , we will have big bullseye on our backs all season. All that said I hope we 3pt shoot the lights out on everyone we've got the guns to do it and dominate the boards. Test will come on defense. i.e Marquette who ran over us last year. A lot of pressure being #1. Bring it on.

Interested to see who even is playing for Marquette. They lost a lot of key guys and haven’t really hit the portal at all. Maybe we can give them some pay back 😈

At bama will be a great environment to play in for the new guys, and even DJ.

At UK will be awesome too, as I expect Rupp to be rockin.

Auburn and Iowa state should be tough.

Maaaan, it’s gonna be a long summer 😂

A handful of games we should win, but only a couple that will really hurt the metrics. Then 6 excellent games. Win them all or not shouldn't really matter. Should be Top 10 SOS when it's all said and done.
