You have an interesting definition for “average program.” Most B1G titles and top 20 all-time in wins. If that’s average then there are a ton of programs worse than Purdue.
You'd think fans of such an elite program would expect more postseason success from their coach.....
Who said elite? Big difference between elite and average.
You'd think such a good, great, whatever word that tickles your fancy would expect more postseason success from their coach.
Ok? And what am I (a fan) supposed to do if I’m not content? Whine and bitch on a sports message board? Will that make my team better?
Hey, 2 month ban bet on Michigan vs Northwestern tomorrow? Northwestern won 10 games last year, Michigan only won 8.
Not being a bunch of gilligan's would be better for the forum, yes. I don't care if it makes your team better.
I’m good. But it’ll be funny to see how long you disappear if Michigan does lose.
Remember how Gill use to forgive Fran for everything shitty Iowa did? That's how you Purdue fans come off when it comes to Painter's dogshit postseason history. If that makes you proud, then keep it up.
Why not bet? Northwestern won 10 games last year and they are playing at home.
IU was mocked for letting a clown go. Screw the CBB media
Edit: I am not saying Purdue should fire Painter just saying about ridiculous CBB media
There is/was a stark contrast in results between Iowa & Purdue the last 3 years.
One guy is winning 30 games and a Big Ten title, the other is anchoring a team at the bottom of the conference standings and missing the NCAAT.
You see the difference?
Being a whiny c*unt about college basketball definitely won’t make me feel better.Probably not.....Might make you feel better, though.
I love this gif...Possibly one of the best ever.
IU was justified in firing Crean. This I think most fans would agree.
From the awkward clown antics, to the roller coaster results from season to season with top shelf recruits... the list goes on.
Painter, aside from two seasons, has been pretty damn consistent. It’d be silly to cut loose a guy who’s won a lot of games and represents the university in a positive light even though tourney success has allued him.
I didn't see they were apples to apples.
I'm saying Purdue fans and their inability to call out Painter's lack of postseason success is eerily similar to Gilligan's inability to call out Fran's lack of any sort of success.
I wasn't even referring to that season. Kelsey Barlow averaged 5 ppg that year and was a total headcase. In my post, I said 1 or 2 seed. Purdue was in line for a 1 seed when Hummel went down the first time, and they were a 2 last season.
This is true. A lot of coaches suddenly found success(tourney) after years of futility... Jay Wright is one. BUT...I mean he did go to the Elite 8 in year five....Final Four, four years later. I mean what is crazy is Wrights only been past the SW 16 , four times. BUT...he has done so.
I think Painters a fine coach. And who knows, had RH not gotten hurt, maybe he has his Elite 8/FF. Hell maybe even a title. Maybe if Haas stays healthy, he gets past the SW16. Who knows. But even then, he's had some good teams more than capable; 2011, and last years. He's lost with some solid teams early; 2016 loss to Little Rock. So even with the imjury bug, he's still had some pretty darn good teams fall quite short.
I knew that. Its why I said the previous season I could see. But not 2011.
Don't hurt yourself bending over backwards to make sure Painter doesn't get any blame.
I am OK with calling out painters lack of post-season success. He just does a lot of other things well, unlike Fran. So it’s hard for me to be up in arms about Painter when he’s a solid coach. Fran is simply a dog shit coach with very little redeeming qualities.
So then you're just an idiot. Got it.My fantasies? I'm not the one that said I mess with newborns...That was you.
I'm an idiot because you mess with newborns? Man, you are worse than I thought.
If it wasn't for hail there would be no michigan bball fans here. Literally no one gives a shit even if they are successful. Imagine if belein wasn't there, yikes.
