How to Watch & Game Thread: #5 Purdue vs Rutgers

[TopSecretBoiler]

Just let Jenkins shoot.

If the rest of the team gets what Jenkins has we win the National Championship.

Ok. Y’all know I’m not one to harp on the officials, but they’re either missing some calls or making bad calls. Need to clean it up. I’ll never blame a loss on it though.

 

[depthcharge623]

We have always started slow pretty much every game this year. Even the PK tournament where we wowed everyone. I don’t love it but it just seems part of our DNA even if we end up winning handily.

 

[Schnelk]

Wow, HUGE foul and no call, it's honestly insane. For the last 40 years, we've been the physical team, why is Painter letting is get rocked? If the refs aren't calling fouls, you punch them right back in the mouth. Let's GO!

Need a hatchet man to compete against this.

 

[Boiler Buck]

Also CMP is so pissed at Smith/Loyer lol.

Deserved

 

[Do Dah Day]

Jenkins may be the MVP of xfers based on his contribution to team success

 

[bonefish1]

What’s up with Loyer.
Seems to be shying away from the physical play.

 

[GoldandBlackintheSaddleAgain]

Potentially the "Jenks" game?!

As Piezo pointed out, nice job Painter on putting in the more veteran guard lineup...at least for now. Boiler up1

 

[depthcharge623]

Jenkins is not intimidated by the physical defense

 

[Boiler Buck]

What’s up with Loyer.
Seems to be shying away from the physical play.

Frosh.. He needs strength training

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

That's not a jump ball!!! morons

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Goddarn it with the tie-up call....again.

 

[Schnelk]

Not a jump ball! Foul! Wtf!

 

[mean_gene]

Painter with a nice in-game adjustment on the lineup.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

SMITTY to Gillis! sweet play there.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Gotta hit those, Fletch....sigh.

 

[GoldandBlackintheSaddleAgain]

shit call on that jump ball.

 

[MetMyWifeAtHarrys]

Loyer is a hot mess right now.

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

Make a shot or go home Boilers

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

C'mon Fletch - missed front end....killers.

 

[bonefish1]

Sit Loyers ass on the bench!!

 

[MetMyWifeAtHarrys]

FOLLOW YOUR SHOT FLETCH

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Wow - where was that headed? ZE playing a little frustrated.

 

[Schnelk]

FOLLOW YOUR SHOT FLETCH

That's what I just shouted!

 

[Steve83]

Jenkins is the only Boiler that doesn’t seem lost today.

 

[GoldandBlackintheSaddleAgain]

Fletch seems like he's legit got a case of the yips at this point
Shake it off man, cmon

 

[MetMyWifeAtHarrys]

ZE's passes back out are abysmal at times...just gets himself too small...needs to get big and play strong.

 

[Boiler_HD]

We need Fletch, has not been good so far, also Edey needs to settle a bit. Stay aggressive and continue to make them foul (and get the calls).

 

[depthcharge623]

Loyer is a hot mess right now.

Maybe he can settle down at halftime

 

[mathboy]

Refs are letting Rutgers beat up Edey. Last play the ball off the backboard was tricky an attempt at getting a foul call on their big center who was arm wrestling Edey..

 

[Do Dah Day]

Dammit Loyer - you're our shooter

 

[MetMyWifeAtHarrys]

Fletch seems like he's legit got a case of the yips at this point
Shake it off man, cmon

He needs to sit.

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

Wow - where was that headed? ZE playing a little frustrated.

Missed Gillis on the cut. He's been missing that action lately.

 

[Lionheart1]

Wow, HUGE foul and no call, it's honestly insane. For the last 40 years, we've been the physical team, why is Painter letting us get rocked? If the refs aren't calling fouls, you punch them right back in the mouth. Let's GO!

Yep, give like you get.

 

[BoilerTom90]

we've scored 10 points in 10 minutes. What a stellar way to start the tournament season.

 

[mean_gene]

Pikiell is a coach I really like when we're not playing him. But when we're playing him I am all like "how are we losing to this little nerdy-looking man?...". lolol

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

Nice defense Z

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Finally! ZACHENONE! great feed from Newman.

 

[BoilerDeac]

Newman and Jenkins need to take more of Loyer’s minutes.
