Zach

- Start date
He might be the single best "selling point" for Purdue basketball in school history.
Painter: "Zach only played basketball for a short time before coming to Purdue and we turned him in to a two time NPOY and Rookie of the year in the NBA. Imagine what we can do for you"
Which I have little doubt is already being pitched.

Also Ivey won the game for the Pistons with a 4-point play late. They were down 10 late in the 4th.
His progress has been remarkable, and a testament to Painter, Brantley, and the entire program.
Peehaps you all are unaware, but he also played baseball and hockey as a youth.

Who knew that class was going to be THAT good?! Happy for em both.
WHAAAAT???? THIS IS THE FIRST I HAVE HEARD OF THIS BRAND NEW INFORMATION!!!
Yeah, that came up a few times during his years at Purdue.WHAAAAT???? THIS IS THE FIRST I HAVE HEARD OF THIS BRAND NEW INFORMATION!!!
And did you know that former Colts TE Marcus Pollard didn’t play college football???
Best Purdue basketball recruiting class ever ?
Not sure which classes in the mid 60s had which guys.
I've watched some highlights with commentary.... it is STILL coming up....
Ivey scored last 6 points for pistons…that was a helluva shot he hit in the corner for 3 too after getting fouled.
Wow! Zach played Hockey and baseball too!! Who knew???? Next thing you know, we’ll be seeing posts telling us Coach Wooden was an all American guard at Purdue? And Joe Barry Carroll played center at Purdue and Big Dog had several sons.
Pardon the sarcasm. But this is about the millionth time I have read about Zach Edey being a former hockey player. I’ve seen it almost as many times as the misspelling of Indiana!
Give us a break. Every Purdue fan knows Edey was a former hockey and baseball player. Tell us something we don’t know!
How about the Grizzlies GM scouted Zach intensely for his last two years at Purdue and was going to draft him regardless of what his predraft rating was. He knew Zach would be a perfect fit. That’s a real scoop you won’t find in normal basketball circles!

Excuse me but Fvck you!! You are a jackass to the highest degree.
Watching it again, he got away with one. I assume Sacramento didn't have a challenge to use because Ivey totally jumped into Fox. However, if Fox hadn't been playing such lazy defense in such a high leverage situation, Ivey might not have even caught the pass.
Want to hear the one again about how you made a big deal about leaving the forum in a big self-righteous huff - but then came crawling back?
Woke up with a little sand in your vagina today? Have you never heard the phrase "tongue in cheek"? When did you become the fun police?
I don’t know if you coined “woke up with a little sand in your vagina?”, but if you did, you should copyright that ASAP.
I guess you missed the 10 other posts that made the same sarcastic comment I made! They went straight over your head , didn’t they!
And you don’t know how to spell. There’s no moderator on this board! Tell me how you really feel. I doubt you know how to spell Indiana either!
That was over 2 years ago. And I didn’t come crawling back. Have you posted anything new other than copy and pasting the same post for the past 2 years?
I left because. Certain posters here made personal attacks on myself and my family and I took offense to it! How about telling the entire story!
Why are you still here? Go back to Facebook where people like and agree with what you post (or so you claim).
Time to start fresh all Boilers, keep it chill, thoughtful, funny, interesting, thought provoking, intriguing , and creative 😎
Meanwhile, back to Big Maple folks, he is awesome!
Yes, great recruiting example for the next stellar Boiler 5 spot

What’s super impressive is he rarely gets in foul trouble anymore - he learned and adapted pretty quick. Memphis is legit - he’s gonna get some good playoff experience
Look at all the things you miss when you just block him!
According to haters it’s because “refs still don’t call fouls on him” 😂 😂
FYI there are some plays out there of him using his arms / shoving pretty aggressively that should have been called fouls, but regardless, ZE is doing awesome in his first year and I would think is at least top 5 rookies this year. Has Kristen Peek formally apologized to ZE yet?
For sure! It’s the nba and it’s a grown man’s game so that’s how it should be.
And nah that chick “left” yahoo sports and hasn’t been heard from since. I think that’s what happens when you try and use Chat GPT to provide analysis and not actually do your own research.
Zach Edey a late scratch tonight against Oklahoma City with a concussion and is in the protocols. Learning through the school of hard knocks so far, battling through some injuries. Memphis has had seemingly half their team out a lot so far this first part of the season - getting boat-raced by the Thunder, 102-74 after three quarters.
From what I'm looking at, Zach is back to the best odds to win ROY according to all betting sites.
