I ask you what does it matter at this point season hasn’t started both teams got lofty expectations and for whatever reason you on this board which is your right to give your opinions about your school team you root for on a Purdue do what brag about their incoming Freshmen their 5 star prodigy and neither I might add has played 1 single game yet and you sir predict the future of what those guys will do and yet say Purdue 3 freshmen are not as talented interesting. Its cool you a fan of Indiana and yes they probably will be better this season but sir Purdue will be good too they bring back some really talented pieces that all played in the big 10 championship sweet 16 tournament beat Ncaa tournament teams traveled on the road and played in in arenas that were very loud and none of those freshmen yet have experienced that at all either team. So 3 months from now we’ll see if your predictions are right or wrong but it’s not cool that you downgrade Purdue players like they are beneath Indiana players bcuz sir in my opinion that isn’t true either. Pressure pressure pressure clock ticking a lot of expectations for a team that brings back Some pretty good pieces and a player that suppose to make them a contender this season for big 10 Championship and a 2nd weekend in Ncaa Tournament but Purdue looses albeit 4 really good seniors and now the sky is falling according to many. Well 4 seniors depart but Purdue brings back more than enough that makes them contenders too. Do not be fooled about what you read Purdue got more guys can score and shoot than many think they now will get to play this season and I bet money they are ready to take on bigger roles and will be effective doing so. Season around the corner 62 days and counting.
I'm not sure how you gathered from his post that he was bragging about IU and our incoming class....he was actually doing the opposite. He was saying that IU fan expectations are not a National Championship, or even close to that. Other than a few irrational folks, most realize that IU is young and there will be bumps in the road. Purdue fans realize the same. Both fan-bases are excited about the season to see what happens and how the teams grow. I don't think he was doing any downgrading of Purdue, just pointing out why many analysts are predicting what they are. That doesn't mean they're right, but you can't fault them for what they're saying. It's their opinion based on what they see and know, just like your opinions from what you see and know. No need to get fired up.
