***Official B1G In-Season Thread***

That's a hot take. He's played exactly one game - and against a quality opponent. A lot of people think Carton will be the Big Ten Freshmen of the Year. Are you going to pound your chest when Touissant drops 10 points and 4 assists against SIU Edwardsville?
nope because Connor is the starter in his game he had 3 points, 12 assists, 3 steals and 3 TO's for a 3.75 assist to 1 TO. going 1-1 from 3, in 22 minutes.

like I said the season starts for real
even Fredrick started out on fire going 18 points in 19 minutes, 4-5 from 3, 2-2 from 2 and 2-2 from the FTL

this team is going to be fun watching with or W/O Jordan,

Your numbers were wrong. Your conclusion was wrong.

Avatar bet me. IU returned a higher 3pt percentage than Purdue and did it on higher volume. I’ll show you If you take the bet. Be a man. Can you backup all that talk? Doesn’t seem like it. I can.

Side note, you keep talking about last year without even mentioning we were devastated by injuries all year. But who needs context when it wouldn’t fit your idiotic fanboy logic. So I would assume you’re hammering Brohm this year for sucking huge balls right?
Don’t bitch out now @proudopete! Don’t try and move the goal posts either. It’s simply an avatar bet. You man enough to walk the walk? Or are you all talk? I think I know which one it is...
 
So what you're saying is he's morally opposed to defense?
just the opposite reports are he is the best defender on the team, Toussaint brings that in your face defense, plus the athletic ability that has been missing these last few years as for defense, when Fran had Gesell and Woodbury the adj defense was at its best @ #30 to its worst at #45.

its not that Fran can't coach defense as its more about the players buying in and having the athletic ability to play defense,

this is what these players bring
Patrick
Wieskamp
Connor
Toussaint
Fredrick
Evelyn
Pemsl and Kriener will bring the muscle in the block
Nunge and Garza will bring the inside outside game to the team

How many wins will Iowa have this year?
 
Ouch, that hurts.

I’n not sure what you’re talking about. I showed the numbers and they show what I said from the beginning. Once again, it’s an odd thing to hang ones hat on. Who cares who returns better 3 point shooting numbers? I mean, if Snu isn’t man enough to bet on who will shoot better from 3 this season, then what’s the point?

I get it though. IU fans have nothing to brag about and this season looks to be more of the same. So, let’s brag about how our returning players made a third of their 3 point attempts. Seems if they were that good at shooting, perhaps IU wouldn’t have been in the bottom tier of the nation in shooting and might have actually won the NIT.

Ban bet for you and your buddy. Purdue shoots better from 3 than IU THIS SEASON.

You in?
It’s their MO. You offer a bet that’s pretty clear.
It falls into a troll like echo chamber
You are called a pussy for not accepting a bet you never proposed.

Example 1


Carsen shot 35% on 380 attempts. The team shot 37.4%. I don’t see losing a high volume 35% 3 pt shooter as a potential drag on the overall percentage. Carsen’s shooting was offset by Clines high volume shooting at 42%.
Last 4 seasons Purdue has shot 36, 41, 42 and 37% from 3. I don’t think it’s a stretch to think 38% is likely. May not happen but I’d make a friendly wager on it. Over/Under 37% seems fair.

I clearly offered a 37 o/u. I never offered any other proposition.

it morphed into

Take the bet at 38% pussy. You said 38% plus is achievable. Don’t back down now.


I’ll ban bet you that Purdue shoots a higher percentage from 3 than IU.

Same thing happened here.

I’d agree there’s a “pussy” amongst us. Lol

Wait! Wut? Didn’t he just do exactly that? I’m old and slow and possibly a pussy but pretty sure he did exactly that. BTW - you personally care.
 
It's really amazing how some Purdue fans talk shit, get called out on it, then either move the goal posts or just disappear completely. Laughing
So, I will take that as a “no”? You started all of this “returning players” talk and you have yet to prove me wrong. I have no clue why you would even mention it unless you were trying to say IU would shoot better than Purdue this year??? So, take the bet of you honestly believe that. My belief is you don’t and instead cling to scraps of “gotcha” snips on an anonymous message board. It’s your life more than real life I presume and that belief is supported by your multiple instances of stalking anonymous posters in real life in an attempt to justify your own existence which is based mostly on this blank white screen.

Take the bet or not. Your adolescent jabs have no effect on me.

This is what backtracking looks like when a fanboy gets called out on his shit. Laughing

Take the avatar bet. If you think I'm wrong, take the avatar bet. I'll then provide you the right numbers and show you how the match works. It's only an avatar bet. Lol. It's not the end of the world when I show you that you were wrong and lost the bet.

Just admit SNU was right about Indiana returning a higher percentage at a higher volume.


I don’t give a shit who shot better between your teams last year OR this year, but I do find humor in how much you’re struggling with numbers.

Exactly. It's a meaningless avatar bet. He won't take it because he knows he's wrong. I'm happy to show him. It'll be fun either way to embarrass him. I'll pull the numbers now.

Woah. Crazy close. If Purdue makes just one more three-pointer, they're ahead of IU in that stat.
 
Iowa is fixin to dick whip someone tonight.

Pretty bad from us last night for certain. We were up 13 or 15 with about 8 or 10 minutes left. Thought we were going to cruise to an 18 or 20 point win. They got hot from three (think they shot 35 3s!) and we were awful down the stretch. Not good.

Was impressed with Jarred Grasso as an HC. He spent 8 years under Cluess at Iona. I remember him as a player. Gosh I'm old!
 
Way too early good/bad/ugly out of your teams?

-- Good: Proctor's game was easy to be excited about, but Hunter's play was really good to see for me. Looks really confident out there and had great pace to his game. Was able to facilitate and score the ball.

-- Bad: The front court depth behind Wheeler and Haarms. Tre didn't look particularly good (though he can turn that around), and Boudreaux is still painfully slow.

-- Ugly: Nojel being banged up, and Sasha already missing 1 game and likely more to come

I give the fans credit they continued the chant when losing by like 35 to IU...respect

Do it when playing IU but it is pretty embarrassing, in my opinion, that when your football team is getting demolished you chant IU sucks every kickoff. Especially when Purdue is 3-6 while Indiana is 7-2.

Here’s a wild idea, tailor the chant to whoever the opponent is. Crazy I know but it might just work.
I was totally indifferent to the chant either way. Thought it was funny how worked up people got on both sides of it. If a bunch of drunk college kids want to yell that their rival sucks, then so be it.

Go ahead and add post-feeds to the "Ugly" section.

Arguing that is one thing. Pete was arguing something that has already happened and verifiably wrong.

And he will still twist it somehow.
I don’t care what he was arguing. I’m not attached at his hip. I’m not involved in that discussion.
