Yah I heard that… he did backtrack a slight bit and say during the regular season FWIW
A team isn’t good because they’re ranked number one. They’re ranked number one because they’re good. I like it when Purdue is good. The rankings are crap. The jinxes and targets are crap on crap.
I think this team wants the target. Let’s see how they play now that they have it.
If……, Talk about the ultimate STFU to the hillbillies down south.
He also thought that Marquette would beat them. He is now a believer. (And hopefully better at predictions.)
Who was the other announcer? Seth did not like him either. He was commenting and not even versed in our remaining schedule.
Good article and all points are valid. However, it is never bad to be recognized by your industry for your achievements.
Kudos to Purdue on reaching the top as it is well deserved. Hopefully, the #1 spot gives you a chip on your shoulder that drives you to improve.

Great article
Most impressive tidbit is ZE only had 6 fouls over the course of those three games - missed that in the heat of the moment, but that bodes well

Jason Williams ?
Edit: I guess he shortened it to Jay Williams after Jayson Williams murdered that guy.
Take away the phantom foul calls in the Tennessee game and it’s even more impressive.
No it wasn't him. Believe Jay was in the middle. This guy was wearing a light colored suit. Didn't recognize. Him. Thanks though.
