I'm not a fan of it. But if she is "mentally unwell" I dont think anyone should judge that. Get yourself right.
I think you are WAY over-reacting here, I read it as the get yourself right comment was directed towards those who have a mental health issue they need to deal with, not at you
I attempted to delete it because I could see I misread it, after Michael shared his thoughts. Sorry about that.
We agree on something! Zero class in her decision. Selfish move. Remain and cheer on your teammates at least. To be completely removed from the program, per the team’s website, indicates to me this was NOT a mutual decision. Zero class is right. BUT…. We are a much healthier team and culture without her indifference and self absorption with her stat line. Boiler Up!
More than basketball, reading between the lines, sounds more like a clash with either the Coach or players.
We agree on nothing. Grown men gossiping about the mental health of a young lady on a message board is bullshit.
Well, after researching you a little bit from your social media, I recant. I don’t want to agree on anything with you. Especially with your degradation of young women via your social media. Kind of concerning the images you have on your accounts. Maybe clean that up a bit son before you come at me for voicing an opinion on a public matter that a player herself has discussed and acknowledged. It’s funny you call it gossiping but if you offer an opinion or inference, it’s ok. Very weird obsession you have with making sure no one is critical about this particular player. That’s odd. I’ll go ahead and put you back on mute.
By the way, that's @butlerathletics youtube channel, not the butler university youtube channel(which carmins email has linked).
Let’s be honest, there’s no reason for Madison to play in these games, it’s better off to give the returners her minutes, it’s pretty much a nothing tournament. However, it’s useful for returning players.
There’s no reason to take her off the website, wonder who did that and why? She doesn’t deserve that. It’s a nothing tournament for girls like her, seeing that makes me think there’s more to the story, if McKenna leaves there definitely is something. I can see McKenna sticking around though because her mom is a Coach and told her to finish the season, different with Madison, she’s done with playing.
They are being consistent. I think they did the same thing last year when Lilly Stoddard left early.
Fair point. But Madison was a 4 yr. starter and will get a degree from Purdue. Lilly was here for a cup of coffee. I know she hasnt been the best leader but its a little disrespectful imo.
To me its a bad look and I suspect it will cause recruiting concerns down the road on how Purdue treats their players that might struggle in some way.
Correct, Lilly left when the Conference tourney was going on though Russ, you have to admit this is petty, teams 13-18 don’t deserve to play postseason, Madison shouldn’t have been scrubbed, bad look in my opinion. I actually think it’s better for the young players, it frees up minutes.
Agreed, no reason for that, Dub’s comment on this tells me all I need to know, more to this than Madison just skipping out, I’ve heard things from last year that I’ll keep to myself but maybe there’s something to it.
I’m confused. How is quitting your team, Purdue’s fault? Now she’s a victim? Please. She chose to walk away, indicating she didn’t want to be on the team. Simple, Purdue removed her. This appears to be standard protocol for schools to do. If you quit, you’re removed from the roster. Because you quit. Doesn’t matter if it’s one game in or one game remaining. That doesn’t hurt recruitment though. That shows they are honoring her decision to quit. I had a feeling Komara coming in would help develop an accountability piece that may have been missing in our program. The standard for player conduct has been raised with her on staff. Which is necessary. We move on with a better and healthier culture I imagine. I’m excited to be in Hinkle tonight and cheer on the players who want to be in a Purdue uniform. Much respect for them. They are choosing to remain together and represent Purdue. Future is bright with MA, Swanson, A Reynolds, Mckenna (if she stays), Poole, Jones etc.
She didn’t quit…she elected not to play in a third tier women’s tournament that means nothing. She played out the season, I’m sorry a 13-18 team doesn’t belong in a post season tournament. This is post season, it’s not even a second tier tournament. If it was during the conference tourney or if they had a winning record and were in the second tier tourney I’d agree, this is much different. Scrubbing a 1000 point scorer who will graduate from Purdue is wrong and a cheap shot.
Also, did Purdue’s football team scrub off all the football players that didn’t elect to play in a bowl game two years ago? I know this, those games were televised and meant much more than tonight’s game that will probably draw 500 people.
That's something I hadn't thought about. Stoddard isn't on the roster for Purdue's official site(although she's in the team picture).
Fair enough, thanks, I got no problem with it than.
