Did Purdue get a commit this evening?

The usual trolls always complain that Painter never gets the players on his "A-list" (which of course isn't true). Now we have a thread about Painter getting a player that has always been on his "A-list", and the same trolls come over and crap all over the thread.

Back to the Bloomington trailer parks with you, Boiler wannabes.

Ms. Reed, I really appreciate you on here and greatly look forward to your son’s career and degree at Purdue. But this place can be a cesspool at times with trolls, particularly when the season starts. If my son were playing, I don’t think I’d spend any time here. To be clear, I’m absolutely not asking you to leave - you’re always welcome - but this place can be brutal.
While I get your concern I am guessing she can handle it just fine. I hope she stays but doesn't get too upset with the many fools on here. Look how many people are complaining about having two 4 stars in the class. Strange people.
 
We're in trouble what!!!!!!!!! It might be it might take 7/8 years than we really in big big trouble what shall we do 1973. You seem to no it all and have such negative way of thinking and negative opinions you my friend pulling out your hair with anger and discuss that you still come on a message board like the punk you are hiding behind a board talking nonsense. Guess what I love it now leave go home to your mommy and cry in he shoulders bcuz painter got a 0 star recruit I love it keep them coming.
Don't let him bait you. He is not paying attention to what you write. His only objective is to cause problems. He really doesn't care what you or any of us think. Best to let him wallow in his own waste.

I could be a douchebag all you want but the fact of the matter is we have not been to a final four since the early 80s. And for your little thing saying Matt Painter hasn't had a chance to tune his recruiting skills he's had 14 years of it what the hell are you talking about. The farthest we've been in the NCAA tournament in 14 Seasons is the sweet 16 no Elite Eights no final fours and we've only been to the Sweet 16 what three times. I know a lot of programs around the nation you would not be coaching at that school for long with that. Funny thing is I've had over 30 years of this and I guarantee you 15 years from now still no final fours
Nothing "could" about it.

I can handle it for sure but I will not let anybody steal my joy as a mother who proudest moment will be when my son put on that #20 purdue uniform like he did with that USA uniform and watch my son do his thang. Proud mother I am bcuz I no what it took for him to get to were he is today.

Don't listen to those others. listen to me. Have some fun with the trolls like I do with the guy who says he's from Microsoft and wants access to my computer to fix a problem. the last time he called, I flat out told him, stop trying to con people out of their money. just tell me how much you need, and I'll give it to you. I have no idea why they keep hanging up on me.

some people just have no sense of my humor.

To all the true Boilermaker fans let me give you some advice. Stop arguing with an idiot. He'll beat you with experience.

It doesn't take long to see who the trolls are. They're like bomb makers. They have their own style of trolling. 73 is probably snu. Please put them on ignore. Theyhave no life, so stop feeding them.

Don't think he's SNU. He'd be likely to pound his chest at some point. BM73 is just sadly inept.

Yes ma'am, this is exactly why I think you handle the fools just fine. I hope you continue "talking" with us because I enjoy your point of view and your insight. I saw what my daughter had to endure to play in a top 10 Indiana HS basketball program so I can imagine what young men such as Nojel must do to accomplish what he has. For that alone he has my respect.
Enjoy every second and never let anyone outside takeaway even a moment of it.

Possibly. However when was the last time they posted here? Habituial idiots can't help themselves but to resurface under another identity. They fit that profile.

No, no,no,no! Just my take. I respect your right to be here just like everyone else but I personally would not want to come to this site very much if I were a parent of a player. Over the years players have been called names, made fun of their abilities and questions of their intelligence and hearts. Expectations sometimes are unreal for these kids. Though some things may be somewhat legitimate points or thoughts, it would be hurtful to me if I was a parent to hear or see them. There are no faces with the free board venom and lack of tact. Your heart will always want to defend and react which would be expected. You will also know some things that others don't. We had a parent on the women's board years ago during the Curry Crap Scandal. He kept saying "well I know more than you." He said way too much. People called him out like he was baiting people or that he was really an impostor. It turned to name calling. Can you imagine if Mr or Mrs. Stephens was on this board? It can be eye rolling at times with the posts.

Any way, just Peanut Gallery advice and a warning. You're an adult and are welcomed here. There are some really good people, true Purdue fans on this board but as you're seeing some others have sick agendas. Here's to a great 4 years to your son, and his parents. A Purdue degree is worth it's weight in Gold, that I do know. Go Boilers!

This is the worst advice ever. Just ignore him and be done. You can't have fun with a troll. When you acknowledge them, they get exactly what they want. That is encouraging the awful behavior. If everybody ignored him, he would stop posting. Or he would just change his name again. He offers absolutely nothing to the forum. Nothing.

But that would be boring, much like the recent Dow comments. What fun is a message board when everyone is in agreement and says basically the same thing and everybody stays on topic? Squirrel. You need somebody to pick on and berate. If boilermaker73 were to stop posting, all you have left is people arguing if Purdue will make the sweet 16 by underachieving or make the sweet 16 by over achieving.

Good point. I will add, obsessed habitual idiots. BM73 doesn't seem to be as bright as SNU. And we all know how hard it would have to be to achieve that distinction.

I've decided to only respond to 73 with judge judy animated gifs from now on. It just feels...so right.

. I see we're you coming from and I appreciate your concerns and I'm totally aware of the criticism my son will endure when he have a bad game and many will rip him apart and as a parent my 1st reaction will be to lash out at all who will make negative comments about my son. 18 year old he is and he gonna have some bad games and make many mistakes but as long as my son has no idea what is being said about him in his face I can live with it no matter how bad it will hurt to read what people might say. WUG games many complained about his t/o he had 25 to be exact and rip him apart and than made comments he not a PG and PJ is the best person to play it bcuz he does not turn it over much and fair to say but to think he isn't a PG none of them have a clue what my son can do and he is a PG that can also play multiple positions as well and painter will play him there and other positions that best suites the team. I can handle what comes with negative comments we have heard it all b4 and even if I wasn't on this site I'll hear it in the stands so it is what it is and it all come with the territory of being in the public eye. However thanks for your insight and advice appreciate you warning me what's to come.

I hope that any criticism you may read regarding Nojel has nothing to do with him as a person or his character, but rather a weakness in a skill that "may" need addressed since all players have weaker areas than other areas. However, that is not to say that those comments are valid either. Being involved in various forums over the years in a variety of subject areas I would like to think that any decent person would stay away from character assassination that was unwarranted and only discuss perceived issues...and those issues have a based line comparison of perfection. Personally, I think this forum is pretty good about not dogging players. Nojel is young as you say and will make mistakes...THAT is to be expected. However, Purdue is very fortunate to have him and his growth as a player and person will continue through all his years at Purdue. I'm excited for what I understand him to be as a person and what he brings to the table as a player and look forward to watching him grow at Purdue.

I get that point too about his weaknesses and maybe about his skills will sometimes be in question when things happen in a game and many will persecute him for it that is what we as people and fans will do. Nobody will be more critical of those mistake he will make than my son will be and trust me he can handle himself and I will be the mother I am and provide encouragement to my son when times like that happen. Who he is as a person I no none should judge him bcuz he isn't arrogant,selfish or rude but a beautiful spirit of a kid that sees no color but the inside of a human being. You ever meet him you will see. Again I get all your points and I truly appreciate you all showing me love and sharing your inputs on what could happen on this site if I keep reading it and I say to you all thank you but I'm a big girl Chicago tough but agreed sensitive when it comes to my son and what others will say about him if he have a bad game. 18 he is just turned it 4 months ago so he a year ahead of his grade but he a big boy with a bright future and you gonna enjoy watching him play that I can tell you.

Ok, this is my last comment on boliermaker73 as being a troll.

I don't really read his posts that much. he basically repeats himself a lot. I believe we all know the last time Purdue made the final 4. his posts are like listening to Trump say in every speech, you know, I won the electoral college. We get it already . we got it the first time you said it, and we're tired of hearing it over and over and over. We're so over it. .

But I'd like to see more of his posts for the simple reason of reading all of your replies to him. Some are rather - squirrel - humorous!
 
Don't let him bait you.
You might want to copy and paste this response for quick reference... as there are a LOT of people here who just can't (or won't) help themselves. I would venture a guess that as much as 25% of posts in the last 2 months have been some combination of: responses to trolls, exchanges about trolls among non-trolls, or other troll-inspired conversation. It's staggering.

If being called a troll makes me one, then yes! Ha.

I think what I've learned from feedback is that I'm only a troll in MSU threads because 1) confusion from my handle, and 2) I'm indifferent to MSU and don't harbor the unbridled hate that others do... so when I say anything lacking the highest levels of hate, it's interpreted as pro-MSU. Then the handle confusion kicks in... and suddenly I'm trolling a site I've been a member of for 3 years. Guess I'm working the long con on this one!

And enjoying watching the Boilers play is what makes my life good ... fun/enjoyment is what it's ALL about.

For those who allow one day in March ruin 125 prior days .... I'm so sorry for you.
As the great Ricky Bobby once said... " If you ain't first, you're last". We don't need participation trophies.

TO each his own. My happiness is not based on March ... if yours is, so be it ... I suspect I have a much for enjoyable year than you do. Oh, and by the way, based on your needs, there are the fans of 350 schools who live a terrible year ... or 347 if getting to the final 4 makes for a happy year. Think about this .... fans of 350 schools waste an entire year of their life in unhappiness. WOW, what a shallow life they lead.

I love the days after winning the 27 or 28 or 29 games that we win. I truly enjoy watching a good team play a good game. It is an enjoyable evening for me. I guess I just choose to enjoy the simple things ...

I never said I was unhappy for a year. 3 or 4 days? Sure.

OK< good ... but your quote indicated that unless we were first, we were last. That's exactly what it says. No indication there that we are only last for 3 or 4 days.
 
Yep I'm a troll I'm an idiot but everything I say makes complete sense. I do you a favor I'll stop coming to this board since true fans don't exist here. A true boilermaker fan once nothing else but a final four. You have fun with your coach I'll be back in 5 to 6 years and I asked the same question do you still like painter. We've had one chance at a final four and Cuonzo Martin was the one who put that team together at least the core of it. Haven't had a recruiting class like that since he's left. Starting to think there's very few Purdue fans that know little about basketball and what it takes to get to the top. I'm going to put this out here our football team will reach a Rose Bowl before painter gets to a final four. Hell they'll be in the final four in football before Purdue basketball team gets to a final four. Signing out see you
