Let's quit with we should be ranked higher

[boilercss]

Title says it all. There was much discussion on how we don' get respect and such and should be ranked higher. Apparently, the voters knew what they were seeing.
Now we have to get busy and earn some respect. Very disappointing 2 games this far in the Bahamas.

Won’t have to worry bout being ranked for awhile.

For eight months I've been called a troll because I told everybody this team wasn't going to be that good you don't know how hard I'm laughing right now

Still a troll.

I mean its a homeboard so what do you expect? Many people claiming We were top ten, lol. I did think we were a top 20-25 team though. Didn't realize we were this bad. Ive never been in the fire painter camp and i still wouldn't say i am but its the same every year. Our best teams ceiling is a blowout loss in the sweet16. If nothing changes in the next year or two Id be fine with moving on. Purdue is a good program in the best bball state. We have a lot of potential yet the fans don't have unrealistic expectations that would scare off a coach. Not to mention bobinski has had a fantastic track record of hiring coaches. I'd be willing to let him work his magic.

So you’re a Purdue fan and you’re laughing because we have lost two games in a row? Yeah that makes sense. If you’re laughing and not pissed then you are a troll

 

[Boilerman1973]

I'm laughing because I knew this was coming and nobody wanted to listen everybody called me a troll so yeah I'm laughing at you guys not at the team but at you guys. Why would I be pissed over this game when I've seen this for the last 14 years eventually you get over being pissed and it becomes laughable

 

[Boilerman1973]

And yes you can believe it or not but I am a big time Purdue fan that's tired of watching the same old s*** every year

 

[ahhculdee]

Here we come 14th place. Honestly Rutgers plays harder than us.

 

[saratogashaw]

So on November 23rd our season is over? We haven’t played well in this tourney and rebounding is obviously a huge issue but we got beat because of a last second 3 to tie in regulation and then today we just looked bad. It happens. Go ahead and bail out now but when we turn it around - and we will - I will be the one laughing

The Purdue hype machine was hyperactive with the whole ranking thing. Rankings mean nothing until late January and even then they mean nothing. Anybody can beat anybody on any given night. Every single Div 1 player was the best of the best all the way from little league to AAU to high school, they can all play, and put a team together, who knows. Portland State was giving all Duke wanted for most the game tonight.

Who won the Duke game?

 

[Poprudy]

Don't even try and compare us to Duke. They don't lose to teams like a W. Kentucky about once to twice a year.

 

[Wolegib]

every other team won except Purdue !

 

[purduefan101]

Lol... everybody take a few steps away from the ledge... let’s wait to judge this team.

 

[New Pal Boiler]

every other team won except Purdue !

And Arizona!

 

[saratogashaw]

So thoughts about tonight? Did we play well? We just beat the team we have played all year with the most talent and won by 25. Yep give up - we stink and shouldn’t ever be ranked again. I can’t stand extremes on either side

 

[mathboy]

Boilerman1973, where are you? Curled up in some corner, looking for your blankie? You are a great troll, probably one of the most subtle we have seen in a while. You did jump the shark after the last loss, trying to sow discord here. Come on back, you are fun to read sometimes, but don't expect much mercy.

 

[saratogashaw]

No mercy - come back and laugh if you want but you are wrong about this team!!

 

[ddmills333]

I think we should be ranked higher
