High school stats now?

Come on man

Jon Diebler is the all time leading scorer for Ohio of all time but he was hardly the best player to come out of the state

Gil gonna Gil. Using hs stats and honors such as the super 15 or whatever players get that arent predictive of anything positive at all - Its his thing, best to leave it be.

Lulz. It’s a subjective topic junior. The fact that some other CBB professionals don’t have Purdue as a one seed proves that I’m not crazy or bias in my comments.
Dude, you tried to act like I was nuts because I had Purdue on the 1 line and now you are saying it is subjective and people could have different teams there.

See the contradiction?
 
And yet the schools that could see him the most decided not to offer. Like I said, the kid could end up being pretty good, but every goofy white kid at Iowa does not turn into Aaron White.
to bad that sometime the best players get ignored. Marble who was from Michigan who was a unrated 3* ended up a 1st Team All BT and 2nd round NBA pick that played until he was racked across his eyes which required surgery and ended his career,

these all became 1st Team All BT with Fran's coaching
unranked 3* Marble
unranked 3* White also a 2nd round NBA pick
3* Uthoff 1st team All BT and 2nd team AA
unranked 3* Jok
that made 4 straight years that Fran has produced a 1st Team All BT player.
looks like Fran can coach and can identify talent, reminds me of Kirk Ferentz.

Nope. It’s your opinion (along with others) and I disagree with it. I do think you’re nuts and don’t think Purdue should be a one seed after losing two straight with one being at home. You (and other PU fans here) just get all pissy when people don’t agree with you. Sorry it hurt your feelings little guy.

This happened in practice against Woodbury or something? Dont remember hearing about this.
 
MSU is kinda getting screwed by the fact that Bonzie Colson got hurt. Notre Dame with Bonzie is a top 25 team. But that doesn’t matter I guess

Is the NCAA Selection Committee nuts, too?
 
To be fair, I think they could do better. They are a bunch of old AD’s. I think it should be old coaches/ analysts who know the game more
No arguments there. But the point was that @boilerzz made a post predicting where he thought the committee would have teams in today's preview seeding. He was correct.

Who a team plays, where they play, and how they play also matters. To keep throwing out "losing two straight" without context puts you in the same category as AP voters.
 
Road to the B1G Reg Season Championship and #1 Seed for B1G Tourney. Looks like my Buckeyes have the toughest path. Not easy at all. Purdue maybe the softest.

The difference is you said what you thought the bracket should be and I said what I thought the committee would do.
 
? on how to deal with Bigots?

Brutal end for OSU. They could conceivably lose 3 of thier last 4. @ IU and UM will be tough, tough games. PSU will be no walk in the park. Cancel the Rutgers game.

MSU's toughest is probably @ NW. SHould go 4-0. But with them, who knows?

Purdue's game @ Illinois might be. But at home Vs PSU may be more difficult.

IF OSU hangs on, they will have earned it.

I honestly cannot believe how surprised people were that Purdue was still a 1 seed. I guess since they just lost 2 games in a row this week but if those losses had been sprinkled in over the span of their previous loss before this week (in November), people wouldn't be up in arms at all if they just looked at the resumes. I get it but losing two games in a row this week is not any worse than losing 2 games in a row back in December or January. Especially to 2 top 15 teams.

Totally agree. They could lose those games. Hoping KBD and Tate just won’t let that happen. Not sure if or when Kam Williams gets off suspension, but sure could use his 3 point shooting.

IMO It’s really not surprising either. They have earned it. They have a great overall resume and they have excellent OOC wins compared to others. Victories over then-ranked No. 2 Arizona and No. 17 Louisville, Butler, 19 game winning streak, seniors, Haas, Edwards, what’s not to like.
