Colvin and Heide yikes

Toledo has won the last FOUR league championships. Don't know what they lost last season but that is a solid team with good long athletes on the front line. Disappointing numbers for sure, but "against Toledo" doesn't mean what you mean it to.
Always a tough out at Rutgers. Happy to get that young team on the road early and in Mackey later in the season.
Wish it were the reverse and we played there later in the year. Interested to see how we guard Harper and Bailey. Will that be Colvin and heides assignments?
You sound like me now, more concerned with experience than wins! Or is there another reason you’d rather play there later? I think Purdue will continue to improve but I don’t think there’s as much room for improvement as there is with those two young stars.
Just figured it’d help the team mentally to play them at Mackey first. But doesn’t matter now. If we can sneak a win there, I think we have a shot to get 7-8 wins in the next 10 games. Michigan and Ohio state at home will be tough, and even Northwestern—Barnhizer and Martinelli are being tabbed as best duo in the conference. They haven’t played that tough of competition, so interested to see how they do in constant conference play.
Any ways, I think we see Colvin and Heide become more consistent in hitting at least 1-2 shots a piece every night and the Frosh come along nicely. And yes, I’m being very optimistic 😂
I hope you’re right, I think we’ll find out soon. If Minnesota pushes us at the Barn that’s not a great sign and we almost have to go 4-1 or better over the next five games to be real contenders for a conference championship. Having said that, wtf knows, this team could be mediocre in January and figure it out in February and March.

Would love nothing more for the latter part of what you said to happen.
On a side note F$&!@$ the Barn! 😂
If Heide or Colvin can’t get their own shot it will be a long season. Both are athletic, so they need to play for us to be really successful. No rebounds is a joke as well.
They're both athletic and can jump, neither has good enough handles to get his own shot or create problems for the defense with dribble penetration.
I’m gonna be a nostradamus tonight and say one of these two contributes in a big way - hopefully both
While not the best, they combined for 5 pts, 9 boards, 4 assists and 2 steals. Still not great shooting it at 2/8 overall and 1/6 from 3. Hope it picks up soon…like Sunday 😂
They both looked like deer in headlights last night on both sides of the ball.
Colvin: uh, guess I'll shoot (?)
Cam giving up baseline to Garcia was so bad, such an easy fix, one that is taught at the 2nd grade level. He was just topsy turvy on D all night, just looked perpetually confused.
