Of opposing teams being able to swarm, swipe, hack, and shove with anything other than their arms and getting away with looking like they're "playing hard". Haas and Biggie are strong and can take the hit without fouling, so it's no foul. Which is crap because anyone else and it's a foul.

Then the phantom and-ones Nebraska kept getting. Biggie and Haas at least once each got call for being straight up in huge momentum plays. Meanwhile they commit way more contact and get away with it.

Call it sour grapes because we lost a game we shouldn't have, but I'm tired of it. No way a team as undermanned down low as they were and starting and starting a freshman C commit less fouls and shoot more FTs than Purdue.

Agree with all you said.

Yep, it is a broken record.........and CMP has been complaining about it for awhile, it's a shame
 
this team is trash... I'm sorry but they are.

They lose close game after close game after close game... another lost lead late in the game.. just like vs iowa, just like vs minnesota, just like vs AkLR, just like vs Cincy

players come and go, the coach stays the same

we just lost a game that we made 14 threes on 58% shooting from 3... tell me how that is possible... because we play ZERO defense... teams score at will vs us... all we do is man to man with a bunch of non athletes who can't play man to man

it's unreal how painter continues to get a pass loss after loss

We aren't losing to FSU/UNC/Duke/ND/Lou or other ranked teams each week... we are losing games to ****ing iowa, nebraska, minnesota in a shitty big ten

let that sink in

This team is trash
 
I agree too. Not many games in NCAA history where you hit 14 or more threes and lose. IN fact Per College Basketball Reference, Notre Dame was the 19th team since 2010-11 to make 15 or more 3-pointers while shooting over 70 percent from the field. They are also the first to lose. Also per College Basketball Reference, teams that make 15 or more 3-pointers win 82.9 percent of the time (654 out of 789). So in our case something else was at work and I think it's the way our bigs are treated in terms of fouls called.
 
How many times over the years have we seen that movie...........
Add to that three previous possessions where our best player had a turn over and two missed post up attempts.
I don't love Purdue playing one on one possessions. We win because we move bodies, move the ball, and get people open for good shots.
That doesn't happen with post isolations.

Beat it Troll. They're not trash. They are a solid group of kids, who could make it to the sweet sixteen this year.

Spot on........think we would have learned from the Iowa game......did the same thing at the 3 min mark there as we did today.
 
because I'm critical after ANOTHER horrible loss, that makes me not a fan?

is a fan someone who only says nice things about the team?
Save it. Some of these people jump on ANYBODY who has frustration. They are not worth the time. They have more images and banners every time they post than they do content. Just like a certain country in the 1930s and 1940s, fall in line and (be positive about Purdue) and you will be welcome. Anybody else, verboten.
 
I think it was the "this team is trash", said twice, that made me wonder........I'm sure the team would embrace your fandom
 
up by one with under a minute to go and we turn the ball over two straight times and foul them? sad to lose a game that late due to turnovers

I think it was three straight turnovers. You are forgetting Vincent's ankle pass (but hey, Dakota's ankles WERE open).

Enough sarcasm. Right the ship. On to the next one. The players are all good kids and want to do good. Nobody goes out there trying to screw up. It will come.....

Boiler up!
