We're a week from games. Please, God, tell me the shitposting will slow down once we cross that threshold.

The back up punter ran his mouth about Durkin at practice and got his ass beat. The players that walked out of the team meeting the day before were Edsall guys. Most of the players actually liked Durkin.

Well he should have ran his mouth. The shame is the players that actually supported Durkin and the Maryland administration. Durkin is a POS that should have been fired in the first place.

While I agree that he should have been fired. I think the players will have more knowledge of the daily happens then you ***git.
 
The Cline Show here at Purdue exhibition vs. Marian. 7-11 from the field 7-9 from 3. 23 points.
 
I’m targeting my whiskey right now if that counts.
I have sympathy. This happens to MSU all the time with the big boys. We put in a lot of work and get in on them early and recruit them hard, but then a Duke or UK swoops in and it all goes to waste

Nice to finally be on the other end of that:rolleyes:
 
IU up over 30 with five or so to play even though we were without Green, Hunter and Thompson. Durham and Davis left the game early as well. IU shooting 47% from 3pt range.
 
Purdue fans, any other 2019 targets now that Hall is off the board?
zeke nnaji is taking his official visit to purdue this weekend, but i'd be shocked if we got him. other than that, none that i know of for 2019

IU freshman were really solid tonight. Anderson with 14...Phinisee and Langford with 13. Also, Anderson 4-5 from three. Told you guys he could shoot. Langford also with 6 rebounds and 5 steals.

Any more exhibitions and we’ll have Borden in here guaranteeing a conference title

Looks like Pitino went with an exhibition starting lineup of:

Amir Coffey
Gabe Kalscheur
Dupree McBrayer
Jordan Murphy
Daniel Oturu

So Amir Coffey at the point and two Freshmen in the starting lineup, very interesting.....


They walloped UMD and made their first 11 baskets.

Langford will be real solid on defense

So much length

Also Phinisee 0 turnovers in 28 minutes is exactly what this team needs
Rob was really strong. I liked the sequence in the 2nd half where we got a little fast, truned it over, with some sloppy play. Ensuing possession, Phin slows it down, gets the team organized. That was impressive. I've said since the spring, he's a perfect fit. And that eventually he would start(PG). Seems that may come sooner, opposed to later.
Langford's defense was questioned. I've seen this kid play for years. Tried to tell folks he was better defensively than most felt. SHowed that tonight. Offensively his shot selection has to improve. And he's gotta learn that those soft, lazy passes won't cut it at this level.

All in all, a solid showing from our freshman class.

Your scrimmage is televised?
 
Do MSU fans expect this team to be better than the roster last year that fans were calling Izzo’s best team ever?

Yes. Big10 Plus. I do not recommend. Awful coverage. Clock was either wrong, or not moving most of the time. Score was often wrong. One announcer. ANd often he was late getting on the air; game would be going for about 10 seconds or so, and he'd finally be like---"Welcome back to Assembly Hall............."Laughing

But hey, for $10 bucks a month, it is what it is. I'll keep it until IU's last game on there, then cancel.

Not a better roster but I do hope they have more team chemistry. MSU won a lot of games by pure talent but didn’t look great as a “team”.

I’d like to see my off the ball movement and guys just getting open for shots rather than the “give it to Will” (Bridges/JJJ) offense that we saw last year.

I agree with this. Sometimes expiercene trumps talent. No doubt last years team was more talented, but we have a more experienced team this year, and I’ll guess we to the Sweet 16 this year.

Defensively we’ll fall off, but our offense could still be very good.

An offense with Winston/Ward should be elite still I’d think

Izzo imo still hasnt done a great job of adapting to the modern 'spread em out small ball style' type of game that has taken over college hoops.

Seems like Izzo is adjusting to the other teams style instead of vice versa.
 
I feel like this GIF is pretty realistic except I see you drinking wine straight out of a coffee mug.

No wine or the bubbly, they cause migraines.. no coffee, either.
But I do jagerbombs in wine glasses.

My husband drinks coffee at work..
I have never owned a coffee cup now that I think about it.
