“You’ve got to play defense coach. You just have to.”
Yep that’s what I said. Not bad though for a guy you don’t seem to have a big opinion of. Illinois would've loved to have had a guy with his abilities.
Why’d you post this? Now gil will come on here and tell us how legit of a shot Iowa has with TJD haha.
Anyone else think the MSG location hasn't been as bad as expected? Being a week early definitely sucks though.
I mean, sure, the games are still just as fun to watch on TV but Chicago and Indiana are in the heart of Big Ten country and way easier for me to travel to lol
I thought about that before posting. Fran is wasting his time for sure
Crowds have been better than I expected, but it’s not worth being a week earlier
Good luck tomorrow @hailtoyourvictor. Should be another grinder. Flip of a coin IMO. Will be a fun game.
I think it has been good. Two of my MSU buds and I were very tempted yesterday to spontaneously drive to New York from mid-Michigan, but ultimately stayed home.
Not a fan of the tournament being out east two years in a row, but it sounds like this will be a once in five year type of deal. Perhaps go to Barclays or Philadelphia during the usual week 5-6 years from now.
Watching the new Albany v Floyd central sectional final... Best game I've watched all day, and I've been watching basketball since 9am. I don't think they can fit even 1 more person in the gym at Seymour, 8000+ there.
Personally I think they should make Springfield, IL the permanant home of the tournament. I mean the PCCC only holds like 7K but it sure does have a lot of heart. Plus it's super close to me. Peoria would also be acceptable.
depending on who he wants at this point, will be good enough for me.
in the 2019 class Fran loses these
SG 6'4 Ellingson looking for a PG to replace him
SF 6'7 Baer 6'7 Patrick McCaffrey replace him
F 6'7 Wagner think he looking for another Forward to replace him.
there are targets out that might actually be better fits in the 6'5 to 6'8 range.
would I like to have him sure but its also best to replaces players of the same size.
Im not one of those slapjacks who predicts an opponent victory just to be safe and cover my bases - I predicted dump trucks against Rutger and Penn State - but I genuinely would bet money on Michigan if I had to bet. I think Michigan is absolutely as good as any team in this conference(as Ive posted multiple times the past 2 months).
I obvioisly hope Purdue makes it 3 in a row over Michigan but Belein gonna Belein.

Serious question, has the Purdue program ever been in as good a position under Painter as it is right now?
I dont think so. Program is hitting on all Cylinders.
PURDUE
I’m with you. I think Michigan is really good and it’s hard to beat teams 3 times. Should be a great game and I am looking forward to it
Yep, I don’t hate playing the tourney at MSG, but I love them playing in Chicago or Indianapolis. That’s where it should stay. Either or rotate. I hate playing a week early. It’s just too strange.
Get over the hard to beat a team 3 times casual fan narrative. That has nothing to do with tomorrow.
What has to do with tomorrow if Purdue cannot guard Mo VVagner and hes playing as well as any player in the country. He dump trucked Nick Ward sespite going o for his first 6 from 3.
Purdue has the same problems because Haas flat out cant guard Mo.
I checked out the 2-4 quarters. Yeah game wasn’t anything great. Awesome atmosphere though. 8300 people. The regional next weekend there will be huge again. TJD and Romeo plus others
