Jack, scroll down a couple of weeks to the "1,450 days (and counting) since..." thread for your answer.
If I'm not mistaken, one of the folks who responded to the "1,450 days" thread, came up with that answer.
It’s over 1500 at this point. The real question is, will that number ever go down to zero?
I don’t know exactly how many days, but my high school senior was in middle school.
I also think it's hilarious that haarms never lost a single game against them considering how much they hated him.
Figured it out…It has been 1,518 days since iu defeated our Boilers in basketball!
GOFJack, let's keep this going. It should never drop off this board as a current topic.

What a coincidence!........ Its been approximately that long since an Indiana Mr. Basketball went to Purdue(Swanigan).....
Weird thing though............ the Hoosiers drought hasn't hurt their abiliity to bring home the state's best player(s). Is it IU? Or more a Purdue thing? Hmmmmm.....
Oh, and if it wasn't for Caleb...... man.......... we're talkin' Glenn Robinson. Some of you weren't even on the planet... let that one sink in....

Leal is a nice player, but he is not the best talent in Indiana. Ivey who went to the prep school up north is better. Most of the good talent forfiet the Mr Basketball by going to the prep school!
Mr Basketball has become a PR stunt.
Mr Basketball has become a PR stunt.
Purdue has proven they dont need a Mr Basketball to dominate the Hoosiers.
Purdue landed the best in-state player in 2019 lol. Ivey>>>Leal.
How long has PU had a better coach? Can IU fans even count that high?
So you're saying you suck while recruiting better talent.
Wow !! That could possibly be the worst comeback in the history of this Board !!! LOL big time
It has almost been that long since IU actually made the NCAA tournament.
It may or it may not be true that Kaufman > Furst. That is still to be determined. They also have different playing styles, even at the 4 position, so it makes it hard to do an apples to apples comparison between the 2 players. However, what you are not taking into your equation is that you assume that IU is a lock for Kaufman, since Furst committed to us. We are still a serious contender in getting both Kaufman and Furst.
you posted something really stupid, were exposed for it, then you weren't smart enough to stay away. No, you had to come back and display your stupidity again.
The most B1G titles, and sustained national success, isn't a case of "every dog has it (sic) day". It's not a "cycle". Your being here is ample evidence you know that's true. Otherwise, you wouldn't be obsessing.
You Loosiers are clinging to the past, as if it's suddenly going to become the future. It's not. Right now your future is Li'l Arch.
Knight made you clowns think you're relevant. Since that time, multiple generations (and multiple failed IU coaches) have graced God's green earth, and yet, you're here, on the Purdue forum, trying to talk smack... and failing miserably.
Most IU fans on the Rivals page were upset when Nick Baumgart was let go a few days ago, and the insight he brought to the site (rightfully so). His opinion this time last year was that Ivey was the best player in the state, and there wasn’t a close 2nd from any other instate player.
He was also much higher on Furst than Kaufman in just about every phase of the game. That’s not to say that Kaufman doesn’t have long term potential to greatly improve or surpass Furst.
If there’s anyone whistling past anything, it’s fans like you whistling past reality and thinking what happened 30-40 years ago guarantees and entitles IU to win more championships. Keep deluding yourself, it’s good entertainment for people grounded in reality.
I always laugh when I hear IU fans make the claim that “hey people don’t even know what state Purdue is located in” like that’s some sort of diss. Even if they don’t know what state we’re in, they know who Purdue is. What a weak trolling attempt.
As things stand right now, Furst>Kaufman.
I will try to type slow enough so that even the looisers lurking can understand. Indiana Mr . Basketball is voted on by the iustar. It’s always been just another biased media stunt. Therefore any player that is committed too or considering the looisers will get more votes than anyone else. Journalists today currently have one of the most dismal approval ratings for being trustworthy in the nation. So congratulations on getting another Mr. Basketball. It will continue to make you feel better about your pathetic basketball program and Purdue will continue to dominate winning basketball games. Hope this helps. Now run along back to looiserton.
Lol.
Furst and Ivey are very likely to be excellent college players.
IU has Lander, Leal, and Galloway coming in this year, all in-State. All are also likely to be contributors. Lander was not eligible for Mr. Basketball because he is a re-class. Is he a high enough quality in-state player for y’all?
If Garza goes, the two best big men in the B1G will be playing in the state of Indiana.
IU is very likely to exceed their 20 wins from the concluded season, and Purdue is likely to exceed their 16 wins. Should be an excellent year!
Have a safe and happy Easter.
It’s never about the actual games with IU fans.

Or, you can discuss which team had a better year last year.
But there are always stats to cherry pick!
Last year’s head to head? Purdue
Last year’s better team? IU
WL all -time? Purdue
WL in the modern era and championships? IU
It’s a fun rivalry, with two schools that largely (with one exception my lifetime for each school) play by the rules and have largely in-state kids.
It’ll be awfully nice when they are the two fighting for B1G titles with each other. Both have had multiple B1G titles in the past decade, but neither have really been title contenders at the same time. I’m hoping that happens soon.
IU, the "better team" .... over Purdue.
Both 9-11 in the conference. Purdue over IU not once, but twice.
The ... "better team". IU.
Those aren't "cherry picked stats."
Oh... I just thought 20-12 and an NCAA team was in most people’s opinion a better year than 16-15 and not.
If you think that Purdue had a better year, more power to you!
Oh, now you're into "cherry picking stats".
I didn't write that Purdue had the better year. You attempted to claim IU had the better team.
Now you're also cherry picking words.
So you think that IU had the better year, but Purdue was the better team? I’m wouldn’t agree based on the entirety of what the two teams accomplished last year.
I also didn’t notice you chose a different word, but more power to you if you think Purdue had the better team last year!
No, genius, I did not say any such thing. I'm pointing out the error in your logic.
I wasn't the one choosing words, I was responding to the words you chose.
You tried to claim IU had the better team. When that didn't work out for you, you went to the better year.
There's no logic you can use to claim the better team. (That was your original argument.) Head-to-head... massive failure. Purdue 2, IU 0.
B1G results... dead even.
When trying to claim IU had the better team: You lose.
Seriously man. The arguments you guys come over here and make are so BAD. Please show me where IU made the tourney this year. This was the worst Purdue team in 6 years and they still whipped IU twice. Oh and please remind us who played as the 11th seed on Wednesday in the BIG tourney?
Purdue 9-11 in BIG , but still whipped IU twice, finished as a higher seed than IU AGAIN and Purdue fans were very unhappy with the season.
IU - 9-11 in BIG as the 11th seed after being 6th in 2018 and 9th in 2019. Clearly going wrong way in BIG. Swept by Purdue AGAIN. Yet IU fans are happy and touting how their program is on the rise and making strides.
This more than anything shows where the 2 programs really are.
Both teams are NCAA teams. If you're implying one would have been in the tournament and the other not we'll never know. For now the streak of missing tournaments still endures in Bloomington
You do realize that IU went on the road to Wisconsin, Michigan and Maryland and at a point in all three of those games, IU trailed by 30. By 30! Purdue was in those games to the very end. In fact Purdue lost to Michigan in double OT! We know our Boilers had a down year. But to get lectured by fans who finished 11th, below us is comical.
If “No, genius” that is your attempt to be “logical” then more power to you. It seems like your attempt to be condescending to me.
Also, I already stated clearly, if you think that Purdue’s resume for the past year was better than, even with, or anything else compared to IU, go for it my friend! In my opinion, as your fellow Purdue fan said above, 16-15 is not up to your standards. Also in my opinion, at 20-12 IU was a tournament team.
I will depart this thread and let you discuss, hurl insults, or speak logically; whatever you prefer.
A safe and excellent Easter to all.
What are you considering the modern era?
You acting as if all Purdues wins were in the 1930’s and if you went back 5, 10, 20, 30 years that those splits would favor IU. Wrong.
you’d have to cherry-pick a pretty specific era for IU to be better than Purdue head-to-head.
No, it was not an attempt to be logical, or condescending, nor was it an insult (any more than your posts have been).
Yes, a safe and excellent Easter to you, as well.
