Different positions bud. Furst is a 4/5 who is more of a 5, and there is only one true center on the team, but you be you.
Didn’t you know? The goal is to stockpile talent, not build a TEAM.

Hail is so far off his game, it’s sad.

Which is part of the point. Do you think Furst is the second best U19 5 in the country? If so, cool. Then you thinks he’s really ****ing good. That’s not a straw man. It’s just logic.

If you don’t think he’s the second best center then that’s a part the process we are questioning.

Well if we can agree that the U19 team (invitees, too) wasn’t chosen by which players are the most talented then sweet. That’s been my question/point the entire time.

SIAP, but Mason Gillis got arrested for drunk driving like 2 weeks ago. I didn’t see anyone post about it on here.

Yeah it was mentioned briefly I believe. Should be suspended 3-5 games I’d guess.

Disappointing from a glue guy program type guy. Hope he responds as well as Cline did.

I would’ve guessed Mason would start most of our games this year despite the fact that his backups are much more talented. I wonder if he’ll be able to win back his starting role since he’s gonna miss a couple games.

Do you hang out with a bunch of people that are so dumb you can just dangle keys in front of them and they are easily distracted? This is pea sized brain shit — just inventing a Purdue perspective — “Furst > Brown, we get it” as an example — and acting like it’s big brain debating skills.
 
Wow, just looked at Indiana’s top 10 most wanted list. Unbelievable Purdue would take a commitment from a guy like this:

and despite being born in 1964, still younger than Boudreaux

It’s pretty evident that a coach/group of coaches building a team would take into consideration many factors. On the other hand a large % of fanboys are star struck. The goal of the national teams has never been assemble a team of “all stars” but to assemble an all star “team”. The former produces the unwatchable Mickey D and NBA all star games. The latter leads to a lot of gold medals for the US.

Interesting way to agree with me, but I'll take it.

Yup. Even the best built teams need role players and good fit.
 
This is my favorite IU talking point: "yeah, we've sucked for the better part of a decade, but we have expectations so we're a better program."

When you guys promote Dane in 5 years, it'll be fun to do this again.
We certainly haven't been a better program than those above us. But I'm surprised the difference between a few right above us when we've been down right horrible for the better part of a decade to 30 years.

No one said that, dumbass.

Coach Dixon also willingly chose to coach at TCU so, at the very least, I think we need to be skeptical of his decision making.

Dixon is a good HC. We saw him a bunch in the Big East. 328-123. 11 NCAA bids in 13 years. An Elite Eight and two other Sweet 16s. Won the Big East twice and BET once. Good coach.
