So your only backup for 1-3 is a guy who hasn't played a college game yet? I sure hope not.
No, edited. Mind fartDid you leave Harris out on purpose?

My biggest curiousity going into next season is what combinations of Cluff, TKR and Jacobson we will see on the floor.Pencil to paper:
Smith
Cox
Loyer
TKR
Cluff
Jacobsen
Benter
Burgess
---- We play 8 most of the time. - I'll take those 8 to the final four.
Then you’re arguing with yourself because otherwise your response has nothing to do with my initial comment you replied to.Never said that.
Not aT ALL ... my point is - we're just fineDid you leave Harris out on purpose?
There is no chance at all that Painter doesn't add starting wing player at least.So your only backup for 1-3 is a guy who hasn't played a college game yet? I sure hope not.
Technically Furst is a starter and leaving, but we have 2 better options atleast coming if not more.With the right portal additions, we could be the pre season #1 next year. Assuming no starters leave.
Way I see it is Burgess/Cluff/Jacobsen/TKR rotate at the 4/5 interchangeably depending on the matchup .... with Cluff and Jacobsen focusing at the 5West
In theory everyone entering the portal is free to return. Once entered the portal then teams are allegedly allowed to start contacting you. Or at least that’s the way it’s supposed to work. Otherwise it’s tampering. So people saying KY is offering Braden cash would indicate tampering he isn’t in the portal yet. You need to enter to portal to “entertain” offers otherwise it’s tampering….This may have been answered, but if he is in the portal, is he definitely gone?
Either way, Painter will find guys who can play.
Technically sure, but he was just filling in for Jacobsen. And between Jacobsen and Cluff we're more than well equipped for Furst's departure. I meant Smith, Loyer or TKR leavingTechnically Furst is a starter and leaving, but we have 2 better options atleast coming if not more.
AGREE!My biggest curiousity going into next season is what combinations of Cluff, TKR and Jacobson we will see on the floor.
If TKR a straight 4 again with Cluff/Jacobsen manning the 5? Will Cluff and Jacobsen ever be out together?
Will we get a wing that supplants Cox as a starter?
We still need someone on the floor that can get their own shot to take this to the next level.
Kind of like global warming, which clearly is a hoax. Until it hurts the pocketbook…it will be ignored until the TV ratings start to decline. Then … PANIC !!!
I’m not arguing with your Strawman response.Then you’re arguing with yourself because otherwise your response has nothing to do with my initial comment you replied to.
The college game is now pro but without a draft and a cap; maybe they should institute both(since it appears many don’t care about the college itself, just the money and PT)
Brian assured everyone on TOS that Purdue has the money to be a player.Colvin has shown that he is mediocre at best and really isn't good enough for a P5 program and most likely will be at a lesser school next season. I've always thought Heide was the better of the two, and thought he would stay here.
My guess it's become all about the money and maybe CMP told them the bucks at Purdue where they're concerned is being cut. Heide will, or should, get the bigger payday wherever he goes but he's still going to be a backup.
Ok phew. Thought I had missed another piece of bad news…Not aT ALL ... my point is - we're just fine
He is not as good as Heide or ColvinI actually think he would do a good job!
We got beat because we didn’t hit enough shots. Were we overmatched physically? Yes.Purdue got beat by Houston because they had more and better athletes on the floor. I don't remember how many offensive rebounds we gave up but it was a ton and the second chance points killed us.
That was because they had athletes who could keep the ball alive and were just quicker to the ball.
Maybe look up what a straw man argument is instead of just trying to throw out buzz words to feign intelligence, and you’ll see that it’s exactly what you’re doing. My point is that these guys aren’t just following a bag (and to insinuate that is dumb) but are leaving in search of more playing time.I’m not arguing with your Strawman response.
Your post stated I had insinuated they were leaving for “millions of dollars”, and I never said such a thing. That’s a Strawman.Maybe look up what a straw man argument is instead of just trying to throw out buzz words to feign intelligence, and you’ll see that it’s exactly what you’re doing.

Have we heard on Smith and TKR? Smith will command big bucks.Pencil to paper:

---- We play 8 most of the time. - I'll take those 8 to the final four.
Maybe Painter didn't want to pay them what they were asking for. It's evident they both have an over-inflated ego.Brian assured everyone on TOS that Purdue has the money to be a player.
Go out on top...we'll always have this.
and his last shot as a Boiler. Good luck and thanks Cam!
Because you’re incapable of logically following a conversation, I posted that no one is offering some huge amount of money to poach bench guys that we wouldn’t be able to match. You responded that they’re getting offer before entering the portal. So either you’re saying that to try and dispute my claim (which prompted my response to you) or you’re posting something completely irrelevant to what I said. THAT’S a straw man.Your post stated I had insinuated they were leaving for “millions of dollars”, and I never said such a thing. That’s a Strawman.
"Do not contact". Does that tell you a player has been illegally contacted?In theory everyone entering the portal is free to return. Once entered the portal then teams are allegedly allowed to start contacting you. Or at least that’s the way it’s supposed to work. Otherwise it’s tampering. So people saying KY is offering Braden cash would indicate tampering he isn’t in the portal yet. You need to enter to portal to “entertain” offers otherwise it’s tampering….
Half of those will return from where they came, not play, or play for free.Exactly, there’s 1400 guys in the portal, Purdue will be fine.
Tells me they already know where they are going so don't bother."Do not contact". Does that tell you a player has been illegally contacted?
Did it ever dawn on you that someone is offering them hundreds of thousands of dollars, and we can’t / don’t want to match, because of the $7-9 million we are paying our starters?Because you’re incapable of logically following a conversation, I posted that no one is offering some huge amount of money to poach bench guys that we wouldn’t be able to match. You responded that they’re getting offer before entering the portal. So either you’re saying that to try and dispute my claim (which prompted my response to you) or you’re posting something completely irrelevant to what I said. THAT’S a straw man.
So you are saying that Cam knew something that we don’t know yet? Like Berg on Sunday?Been trapped in twitter world but, man hate to see that Cam is gone. He was sure fun to watch. It's not about the money IMO it's about opportunity. I hope he makes the most of his immediate future and the rest of his life. I haven't read this post, but things are getting real.
Not sure I understand your point. TBH don’t understand the do not contact provision."Do not contact". Does that tell you a player has been illegally contacted?
You’ll see another high potential add.Pencil to paper:

Davis from Southern Illinois would be nice.There is no chance at all that Painter doesn't add starting wing player at least.
Completely out of control and unsustainable - as I said earlier Jay Wright is a smart man and saw the madness coming.When will all this portal transfer bullshit start affecting attendance and TV viewership. We all know that’s the bottom line, the players have every right to transfer and make as much as possible. I just think you shouldn’t be able to do it every year, sign a 2 year contract and that would solve a lot of problems. That would mean you could transfer twice during you 5 years
