Beginning the season...it appeared that Purdue'e roster was loaded with talent. Well...that has not played out as the season progressed. Tonight's game against Michigan was not the first time this season when it appeared Purdue was playing 3 or 4 on 5 with the only reliable, consistent players being Kaufman-Renn, Smith and Loyer with occasional contributions from Cox. Furst, Colvin, and Heidi do not show up most of the time. Zero, Zilch, Null from the bench tonight...and I believe it's not the first time that has happened this season. So...what appeared to be a promising future for Purdue basketball is rather murky, now. Thoughts?
 
I don't think that's too different from every Painter team. There's usually a big 3-4 then a large talent dropoff.
 
Is it impossible for Furst to finish a nice feed unless he’s wide open? Beating a dead horse topic here regarding Colvin, but I will continue to wonder how someone with his athletic ability is nothing more than a 3 point shooter. I saw his dad play ball once at the Co-Rec. Rosie may have actually been a better college basketball player.
