Put Mayer on the floor with Braden ,Loyer, Smith, TKR and Cluff......one on one baby, can run some good stuff. Shooting 42% from 3 on avg , maybe higher.

Then at break DJ , Liam, Cox, Harris, Benter/West ....that is an intense 40 minutes and throw in healthy Burgess.

What a group , lots of combinations, can't wait to watch.

Yes, no more falling off a big guy to double TKR download. Purdue's entire roster next year will be capable of knocking down the outside shot, with consistency. I told my son that he is a student at a GREAT time as Purdue was not that strong when I graduated in 1992.

Going to be great to have the rebounding out there this year.
 
Purdue has had some great offensive teams under Painter, but I think that this one will be his best (assuming no key injuries) and it might not be all that close.

at least twice in recent history we've "mostly" ALL thought that we had a 10 deep team that would be impossible to stop.
We were wrong.
In part because guys don't always develop as much as we'd hoped in the time span of their growing up.
In part because we have unrealized expectations that color every off season and what the next season "might be".
But mostly what I see is the lack of recognition that OTHER teams are doing all the same things. And that other teams might be just as stacked as us. Possibly with even better players that will grow into a monster team(s) that none of us know anything about at this point.
That WILL be one of the fallouts of this transfer bs.
There will be a team or two (or more) in the hunt every year that nobody expects.
We are expected.
And thus, we are the hunted.
Not our favorite position, but every team would like to be there.
Until they get every teams best shot....

The difference I see with next year's team versus previous years, is that even if the team had zero improvement (I know this won't happen) we would be stacked. Now factor in that you will have some improvement, and you have a great team. We don't need any one player to make some huge leap forward to have a loaded team. That is why I'm very optimistic for next years group.
