Edit- lol me and hawkit had the same idea
If you could go ahead and spot us a 12% shooting night from 3 like you did Illinois, that'd be great.
I wouldn't count on it at home but stranger things have happened. Purdue has probably won the most games at the Kohl in the last 20 years. Or at least it seems like it.
This is the normal answer, holy shlt. I get rivalries, but some PU fans sound like they need to leave their state every once in a while! More to the basketball world than an instate rivalry and bragging rights at the water cooler.
No doubt. Depending on who stays or goes and who is brought in, I could put Purdue anywhere between 8th and 1st in the B1G next year.
I decided to look this up, because I was actually really curious. Kohl Center has arguably been the hardest place to play in the league since it’s opened, now in its third decade. Since the 1998 season, UW has only lost 43 home Big Ten games … 1.7 per year.
That’s amazing. Turns out the answer is MSU (as with most Big Ten trivia over this timeframe…), but here is the list with the last win in parentheses:
Michigan State: 8 (2022)
Illinois: 6 (2021)
Ohio State: 6 (2021)
Iowa: 5 (2021)
Purdue: 5 (2019)
Michigan: 3 (2021)
Northwestern: 3 (2018)
Maryland: 2 (2021)
Minnesota: 2 (2019)
Indiana: 2 (2001)
Nebraska: 1 (2018)
Penn State: 0
Rutgers: 0
Pretty pathetic by PSU, as they’ve been in the league the whole damn time, lol.
I think as Wisconsin proves this year, it’s just really hard to tell. In general, I feel that Purdue, Illinois, MSU, Wisconsin, OSU, Michigan and probably Indiana fans (though it’s too early to say) should feel very good about where the programs are and/or are headed. Iowa might be maxed out, Maryland is a complete unknown until a new hire is made, Minnesota is still an unknown, Nebraska and Northwestern likely need to make a change this year and I honestly don’t know what Rutgers should do…
...and UW picked a bad night to miss a shit-ton of wide open outside shots.
That 2001 win for IU was in the conference tournament at the UC. I’m fairly certain the only time IU has won at the Kohl Center is the first time they played there.I decided to look this up, because I was actually really curious.

Good summary. This is why I don't give a shit about preseason hype or rankings. We were hyped last year and ended up being the softest team I've seen in 20 years or more. This year picked 10th. You just can never tell for sure who will develop, how fast they will, and what freshman will be contributors or bench warmers. I wish we had gotten Roper. He's just going to be a good player on a shitty team for 4 years.
Yea I think the last IU win was 98.That 2001 win for IU was in the conference tournament at the UC. I’m fairly certain the only time IU has won at the Kohl Center is the first time they played there.
Haha, holy shit, you’re right … ouch. Makes that epic collapse earlier this year sting even more.That 2001 win for IU was in the conference tournament at the UC. I’m fairly certain the only time IU has won at the Kohl Center is the first time they played there.
I’m pretty numb to losses there at this point so it is what it is. They’ve fumbled wins there before this year, but it’s true it was particularly egregious this year.
You just had to go there didn't ya lol. I like you more when your pushing in PeeU shit.
Where's Snu so we can get into a 3P shooting discussion between IU and Purdue? It would be a fun discussion this year (not really because no discussion with Snu was particularly fun). I know IU is improved (and Parker Stewart can sling it) but here are the 3 point shooters in Purdue's current rotation (excluding centers):
Gillis 52.3%
Morton 47.4%
Ivey 43.6%
Hunter 43.2%
Sasha 42.1%
Furst 41.2%
IT 40.8%
No wonder we are hard to slow down. With Edey/Trevion in the middle and Ivey slashing, which of these guys are you leaving open?

This is what's been missing from the board. I thought something was off, and it's 3pt% pissing matches.
Don't worry, boilerzz will bring it up whenever its's advantages to do so. I personally miss SNU stepping all over his own dick tho
Not to brag but race Thompson is shooting 100% from three the last two games (4/4 nbd), so he’s probably the best shooter in the conference and maybe the nation*
*pls don’t look at his percentages before these last two games, those numbers are irrelevant

In case any of you guys like seeing a Big Black Cockburn destroying little white women.
You know what's missing? A detailed list of player heights, weights, star rankings, shoe sizes, dick hand length, vertical, eye color and pokes. Where's a Gil post when you need one.
2for1s don't seem to happen that much in college but it's still a great strategy.
If the strategy becomes pervasive, I could see the NCAA change the rule and stop the clock after a made basket in the final minute of the first half. Honestly, I wish they would. It would bring the 2 for 1 strategy into play more often IMO.
Yep----and 10th place won't... 🤣 🤣
Its a clever move, but you are taking a chnce here too on an official starting a count...Underestand this----IF an official feels the ball is at your disposal, within reach for you to get it, and put the ball in play, they can, BY RULE, start a count. This rule is in effect to keep teams from letting multiple seconds run off....Also, they can stop the clock in this situation if they feel the team is intentionally doing this to let time run off.
Illinois has a Baylor transfer who looks like he will fit right in to the big ten style of play. Dain Dainja. Big back to the basket big but has some flair to his game and passing ala Trevion Williams.
Indiana and Michigan would be the 2 that come to my mind first IF Kofi is gone and Dickinson/TJD return.
But both Indiana and Michigan will need someone in the backcourt to either get better in the off-season or grab a high impact guard in the portal. That’ll determine whether they are true contenders on a national level IMO
Would definitely help his longterm prospects in the league, but it’s doubtful given his position on mocks.
He was unbelievable last night . Just a fvcking monster . Dude needs to GTFO the conference sick of him abusing everyone lol
IU’s guard rotation next year projects to be:
XJ/JHS
Bates/Stewart
Galloway/
Not sure we need to be concerned with the backcourt.
