Anyone that could stop the culture / whatever behavior Painter does that keeps long athletic players from coming to (and staying at) Purdue would be a better option at this point.
Thanks-a better response.
IU has 2 guards coming in outside of the top 100. We have a freak athlete ranked in the top 50 and back that up next class is a freak athlete top 20 recruit and may move up. IU will lose TJD, most likely Schifino, Koop, Thompson and maybe X(6 years... yikes). Unless, they hit the transfer portal big time. They don't look appealing to the eye next year.
In all fairness I think they beat Tennessee (2) and Washington (4)
I’m not going to even bother listing all of our “top choices” we struck out on (both from the portal and high school)
Are you implying that Mike Woodson or Matt Painter is the coaching equivalent of a million deaths?
Newton is coming off an injury and he's not near the basketball player Colvin is. Also, quit spewing crap about his attitude. I talk to an agent/AAU coach and he squarely put the blame on a horrible coach that couldn't coach.... period. I trust this guy to a T. Same guy that said Travyn was going to transfer to IU after the Bama win. He was in the damn locker room.
Let me rephrase, never beat a team seeded more than 1 seed higher (toss up game) but has lost to teams seeded up to 15 spots lower.
omg Woody is a moron who had his best player on the bench and was starting X. Lady luck forced his inept hands into playing JHS and it changed iu's season. Also has no recruits coming in. iu will SUCK next year.
Who cares? I wish Purdue would pay our players.
You know what I am referring to, Mr. TDS.
I care even if you don't. I am interested in the market value of buying up teenagers.
Fair enough on Colvin; I have no personal knowledge of his attitude and apparently you do.
For the school? Nothing.
Nope. On the political board when you sling poison I respond.
I've really noticed you sugar coat stuff, but what updated recruiting site are you possibly using?
Educate me. Who was IU’s “best player” that Woodson had on the bench?
Apologies—just re-checked and your numbers are right.
Why would you possibly play Schifino and X at the same time. Both are not square up shooters. IU would have struggled to make shots or run consistent plays. They both are on ball players? I like Schifino running the point, but wouldn't trust X to hit shots off the ball.
Quick reminder for you, you slung the absurd comment that a certain recent president who was not responsible for ~800k deaths in Asia, or any deaths from stupid wars, was the worst pres in 150 years. But now you are here talking about 'substance".
Doesn’t surprise me that Reality wouldn’t be one of your choices… “de plane de plane!”
Have you ever seen the Message Board Geniuses Twitter account? If they’re watching Purdue today you are a candidate to be going national!
Unlike you, it's not a "choice" but a "given". Pretty much taken for granted. You just chose a non choice lane. You went in the ditch since we're talking in metaphors. LOL
They did exactly that until Johnson got hurt.
The person who has complained for years that they deserve a banner is you. YOU deserve a banner. You would hire known cheaters if it would get you the banner you deserve. You have no skin in the game, but you sit in the back row and yell that it is an injustice for you not to have a banner, and everyone else should join you in your outrage. You posted that you hope the top recruits committed to Purdue change their minds. A typically childish response to a loss from you. I wonder how long you held your breath in protest last night.
I’m not driving the car, and neither are you. Otherwise you’d be on the phone with BOT folks and not on this message board.
Thanks for another substantive reply. Yes, I had better be careful about what some twitter account says. Thanks for the warning, H2.
Well........ok ok. I can't top that one. You took the metaphor to a new level. Well done! LOL
Call him and find out. Why wait? You have always talked a good game. You wanted Painter to cheat in recruiting, but now that YOU can legally make a difference with NIL, you continue to just blow. You say you hope NIL steps in to get the good players. Back row Blowfish.
You are too much. In a thread about the relative quality of Big Ten coaches your only contribution is that IU is racist because Woodson is only paid $3 million and they would have offered Brad Stevens more. Everything else from you is off-topic nasty about who likes Trump or the Vietnam War.
How in the hell can you be known as the best coach in the BIG when can’t beat some jive 16 seed team that lucked into the play in game?
Purdue can't pay "our" players. But you can. Legally. But you're too busy whining and posturing that the world owes you a banner.
