Georgia State v. Purdue Game Thread

[cjf04]

No confidence and again, the give a shit meter is back at zero....not even mention fts.....sad.

Time to get Brad Stevens once he gets fired from the Celtics.

Would be great! But Stevens will be at Boston for a while and will have better options if/when he does leave

 

[TwinDegrees2]

dakota...omg...what am i watching

That's what Dakota does best. Don't want to pick on him, but IMHO he's just not Big material.

 

[Heiner]

Where is Haas.

 

[ahhculdee]

I hope we drop out. Our team needs to wake up.

 

[Dakota Girl]

Classic letdown game taken to an extreme. Zero energy. I know they think they are giving effort, but they aren't he types as Purdue fails to block out on the backside.

 

[boilerpt]

It is sad how much less athletic we are than this team.

 

[PUQBMan.]

If their guards can get to the rim at will, imagine what will happen when we play a team with good guards in the B1G.

 

[cprh9u]

No we don't. And all the reasons you have ever given have been proven wrong. What you think there is no other team that has bad nights like this? Give me a break. I am so very glad you aren't the AD because you would sink the program in to a hole we would never recover from.

Yes, they are proving me wrong big time on a lack of guard talent tonight! Teams win with top 50 players, period. We have ONE, and Biggie is the only reason we aren't losing by 20 at home to Georgia State. Next year is going to be rough assuming he leaves early, which he should.

 

[BoilerGrad02]

They will do ANYTHING to defend CMP. I don't get it. Love Purdue, but that doesn't mean I have to like the coaches when they are mediocre or just plain awful (we started 2016 with both versions- basketball and football respectively).

It really is starting to look like Purdue will never be more than a decent team under Painter. Year after year there's hype about the talent of the team and they consistently underperform.

It looks like top 25 rankings and sweet sixteen appearances are his ceiling and that's his good years.

 

[BoilerBulldog]

Here we go. We still can get this.

 

[Heiner]

Thank you

 

[PU pit bull]

A little life left in this team...........keep it up!

Wow, so many chicken littles come out when things are struggling but are oddly absent when they go well.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Got to do on the defensive end, Boilers.

We will be top 15.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

and one!

 

[ahhculdee]

First play with any energy tonight.

 

[rezzerfly]

I'll eat some crow tonight but not to the two fair weather fans posting.

 

[BoiledSteel]

For having no athletic ability on this team by some account, that sure was one helluva athletic move by Basil

 

[BoilerBiker]

Thank God for spike

With the foul differential
It will be difficult to Not win

Glad they missed the drawn charge by Smotherman earlier, 10min mark

Yes, you get it! His only shared B1G championship and sweet 16's came with a once in a lifetime 2007 class. Since then, he has not won a B1G or advanced to the 2nd weekend in the NCAA tournament. Win or lose tonight, that isn't going to change this year or next.

 

[ahhculdee]

We will be top 15.

We won't if this is the best we get.

 

[cprh9u]

Way to go Basil!

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

FEED him!

 

[cprh9u]

Here we go. We still can get this.

Yes we can! It doesn't change a lot of things but baby steps.. we need this game!

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

D up.

 

[cprh9u]

Finally Haas

Starting to look...? You must be new around here.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Shuffle shuffle.....cmon Boilers.

 

[ahhculdee]

Apparently I am a fairweather fan because I look at things objectively. We don't deserve the 15th rank.

 

[rezzerfly]

Reality check. Painter could lose the rest of the games and he's not getting fired (wishful thinking for some here). MB2 has his hands full with the whole football coaching situation right now so save your torch burning for next season.

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

man basil has saved us.

 

[PU pit bull]

New game.........cmon Boilers

 

[BoiledSteel]

Exactly right. Painter isn't going anywhere until his contract is up and won't if he CONTINUES to have these top ranked teams.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Lucky bounce there.....but take it anyway.

 

[BoiledSteel]

There is some fire!

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Get a good look here, fellas.

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

why the timeout?

 

[ahhculdee]

This will be an ugly win, still there is nothing to be proud about. Maybe if it was an ugly win against MSU, Wisconsin, or Nova.
