Purdue has nobody outside of Carsen that deserves to sniff the nutsack of Romeo Langford.
Only he can give you the privilege.Laughing

So, lets discuss this...
Take away Carsen, next best option is...........Ryan Cline.
Take away Morgan, next best option is........Romeo Langford.
Lets go a step further...
Take away Carsen and Cline...........Haarms? Maybe Nojel----But hel, he's a 6'7 Ethan Haap.
Take away Romeo and Morgan.........Phinisee....Maybe Green....Or Smith. Possibly Davis; Not a bad option if healthy.
Anyways...Not sure why this so hard to understand. Purdue losing Carsen would have a much, much bigger impact for Purdue, than if IU lost Morgan. Not so sure why this is so difficult.
Bro, January 19 will end this argument. They are a joke outside of Carsen. Archie will slow him down in the first half and they'll be done.
(As long as we're healthy)
Tell you what, that second half moral victory yesterday really must have instilled you with some confidence in IU's coaching staff.
I'd had a lot to drink Laughing but I'm glad you found that.
I was venting in the wrong thread I guess, although IU finally found some fight in the 2nd half, I was proud of em.
So college football is basically women’s basketball now.
All BS'ing aside, it really did encourage me if I'm being completely honest. From I think the 8 min mark in the first half...IU outscored them by 8. It's all relative because they were facing a team at that point who already had a 19 point lead. But, how they fought back was actually very encouraging.
When I was in Scicly, you get in the middle of the country and no one speaks English.
I would speak in my bad Spanish and they would answer me. Turns out Sicilian and Spanish are the closest languages to old Latin.
Never been anywhere that there was not someone who could speak English. It is the universal language. Of course I don’t backpack into off areas, and I do speak poor Spanish and a smidgen of Japanese.
You are wrong here. Everything goes through Simpson. He locks down the other teams best guard down.
His ability to run the offense is impressive. He is perhaps the one player that Michigan could afford to lose the least
Many would agree. I personally think that Simpson, Poole, Matthews, and Brazdeikas all have arguments but Simpson is probably the most important player on our team.
My friend put it this way when I asked him who he thought was the most important player on our team.... “Simpson by a mile because he takes the head off the snake of our opponent night in and night out.”
Miller Park is the great not because of the stadium but because it’s one of the best tailgate stadiums of any sport.
I liked Miller Park too. I was there for a night game against the Dodgers and the roof was open on a gorgeous day. Also had a lot of fun there, it’s just hard to top Fenway IMO.
Did you tailgate
Was it by chance the Friday night game where kershaw and jimmy Nelson helped set a strikeout record? I was at that one
I agree. Simpson might not be the most talented but it would hurt UM the most out of any player if he went down with an injury.
Not sure yet, we did Italy on its own but may combine 2 and do 10 days, may not. Scottland/Ireland has some good groupons. We'll probably match Switzerland with the north side of Italy and maybe Germany. Then make Greece its own trip.
We did 11 days and spent maybe 1000 on travel, round trip from NY to Rome was like 260/each, 1000 on rooms and maybe 1000 on food/tours/etc. AirBnB/VRBOs in rome are around 100/night for a pretty decent place in the middle of everything. Flights over seas are getting cheaper and cheaper as airlines keep battling.
No Boston is pretty awesome. We did an east coast roadtrip a few years ago that was in my top 5 trips.
Yeah i've heard London is pretty dirty and there's not a bunch to see. I figured its like Rome with less to see, could spend two nights and that'd be enough. Thats all we did in Rome as once you see the Vatican, Colosseum, and ancient rome, its time to move on to bigger stuff in the country as there's so much more to see. We did 11 days and didn't even touch the north side of the country.
Is that an IU thing? At Purdue, we’re not really into sniffing other guys nutsacks.
I was just blowing some sh*t. I was pretty impressed by how they battled in that second half.
Osterman has been hammering this point for a few weeks, but those slow starts are IU's achilles heel - aside from the injuries.
I'm expecting a 10-15 point loss tonight in Breslin, but I'm looking forward to seeing how a couple of the freshmen - specifically Aaron Wheeler and Tre Williams - handle the environment.
As with most big games, gonna need Carsen and Cline to be in the 35+ range combined to have a real shot.
With Langford out I'm curious to see if Painter stcks Eastern on Winston to start or if he goes with the cross-match and puts him on Ahrens to help with rebounding. That would also allow Edwards and Cline to have more natural matchups on Winston and McQuaid, respectively.

You can be such a dumbass. Ask Belien how he feels about Simpson’s value to the team. Belein relies on a very savvy guard to run his offense.That happens to be Simpson. It’s not all points. How can you spend so much time around the game and not soak up even a little bit of knowledge.
You guys lose Morgan and you are toast. Hell you are the biggest crybaby on here when it comes to the impact of losing players. How many posts do you have lamenting the impact of losing role players? Answer- a lot. Now if you lose Morgan it’s “next man up”. LMFAO. You are the definition of homer.,
Losing Morgan would cripple us this year, i don't know how you can spin that one. Will be interesting to see next year with him gone. Bringing TJD and Brooks will help but they're young, and we've yet to see Hunter play, Romeo will be gone, Green can't be relied upon, it'll be Phinisees team. I will say i think losing Carsen would be worse for Purdue but not by a ton.
It's the perfect opposite to the Ronnie Johnson floater: it's right-handed, the shot looks cool, it appears as though he's practiced that shot, and it actually goes in.
OSU was having some success hounding Winston in the first half. They did it with CJ Jackson mostly, who is smaller but quick.
If Nojel guards Winston, who does Carsen guard?
But I thought losing your pg wasn't any bigger than losing anyone else?
He did it with different arm angles, didn't always use backboard, was impressive, but he only did it going to his right. If he ever got it going with his left hand he'd be deadly.
I think Carsen could give Winston some problems on-ball, but I just don't know if it's worth the tradeoff of wearing him down on the defensive end when Nojel is pretty adept at causing issues for point guards with his length.
But the bolded is my real concern because you can stick him on McQuaid which is fine but Cline on Ahrens would be a real rebounding issue, and I'm not sure that's an area where Purdue wants to compound deficiencies as Ward and Goins are already going to b e problematic.
Has there been anything further on Ahrens tweaking his ankle on Saturday?
I don't feel good about tonight. The matchups don't look great and Breslin is a tough venue to play in. It doesn't look like MSU has much depth, especially with Langford out so our best hope might be if we can get Sparty in foul trouble.
At this point, I just hope Purdue comes out of the game healthy and am glad that after tonight, we will be done playing on the road in the state of Michigan.

BTW, one of the craziest numbers I've ever seen. MSU actually has a guy (Bingham) shooting 50% from three point range (5-10) and 0.0% from two point range (0-6)?
