I for one am going to get in your grill. I am tired of you being upset we beat nationally ranked teams, you must be a closet IU fan. And Closet is a good define of you. We are #1, go away.
Marquette vs. Purdue MASTER DISCUSSION THREAD
- Thread starter Travis Miller
- Start date
We won't see anything in the B1G like we just saw in these past 2 games. Arizona and Alabama will be good tests also. Love the toughness.
Anybody else see a lot more swag in Edey than what he had 2 years ago? Lol I'm glad he had it in him. I wasn't sure that he had that dog in him as a Fr or Soph, but he's definitely got it rolling now.
There is some mental part in shooting and getting into the grill I'm not sure helps them shoot better...I suspect worse. Getting into their grill if they take bad shots is different, but if shooting under pressure is the topic...getting in their grill I doubt is the best answer
I thought he was going to give the interviewer a shower if she got too close. I don't think anyone mentioned it, but a huge play towards the end was when Braden stopped a layup when Purdue only had 5 fouls...VERY SMART!
Tape of this tourney will show the rest how to beat us. But only a few will have the personnel to execute the pressure. Got to keep improving. Staying injury free & the development of Colvin & Heide will be key to the season.
They did hit a lot of big shots. We just beat 3 highly ranked teams in 3 days. You don't think big shots were hit?? Do you think we're going to beat everybody by 20?
Al Davis said just win baby so just keep playing I said Edey would get his they have to learn to play all styles of games so just win and say next
effectiveness of pressure was a non issue first half for the most part, but when the refs let it go more physical in the second before they started calling it tighter again and the fatigue set in...it became an issue for the team. Not going to play 3 days in a row against great teams and that Tenn wrestling match had to wear on Purdue.
I know the legs were gone, but we need every player to shoot 10,000 Free Throws before our next game.
Next 2-3 games should be an opportunity for Colvin and Heide to get some real minutes. Absolutely no reason to see Morton even take off his warm ups. Not that I dislike him, but the kids need seasoning and he is a senior.

Three games in 3 days against top 10 teams will wear on you. No one except Zach had legs at the end.
Three top teams in three days. Tough to win, tough to keep legs, tough to keep intensity. Purdue did it. We showed toughness against very physical, fouling teams that would wilt most other teams. Good job Boilers!
Morton should only play in emergencies.
Every min we can get heide and colvin is whats important now. We are going to need athletes and shooters in march and both of those are those 2 things.
MUST develop them in the big ten season. Big ten is extremely weak this year. Illinois and MSU may be the only other teams to make the ncaa tourney. Make sure to win our conf games but let the young guys play as much as possible

I feel the same way I did last year at this time, just hope the gang keeps it going
A hater because Morton doesn't need minutes against Eastern Kentucky, Jacksonville and Texas Southern so we can get Freshman minutes and coaching to be ready when we need them in March?
Enough with the Morton hate. Just stop. Painter knows the situation and is playing him at just the right times, when he needs a defensive stop or a ball handler with fresh legs. Morton is doing his job just right.
where the hell is everybody? only 4 pages on this line when our team is in the championship
I don’t get what’s so different from Gillis/Morton and newman. Newman transferred out for a big upgrade in Jones. Credit to painter. Could have done the same with those two
wrapping arms around edey and no foul called is the key
True. But those fools not called on the perimeter we're the key to their comeback.
I am currently in a superstition routine whereby I skip the forum during the game. I will continue with this routine until we lose.
Against cupcakes? Yes please. More Colvin and Heide. Look I hear you, but the championship game of the Maui Invitational is NOT the time to be giving freshmen teaching lessons. Colvin played 4 minutes today. His D just isn't there yet and it's pretty obvious to some of us.
And getting away with multiple hook and holds until the refs finally call it.
Agree. They will have their time in crunch minutes but our upper classmen should be in there.
I would agree to some extent but playing three games in a row against the competition we faced... I guess I will hold judgement until we get into the normal part of our schedule.
Both TN & M effectively extended our guard play way out with pressure which was disruptive to our Offense. Poor reffing helped on both occasions, but you'll have that.
We will see that from here on. It worked. It will be tried again. Prob only a few B10 teams have anywhere close to the personnel of what we saw in this tourney to give it a real go. But we will see it if coaches are worth their salt.
Good news is - that will be great for the Boilers to practice against to prepare for March.
