@Hatchets77 @PurdueBballGuy Guess I didn’t remember correctly. “The last NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Tournament consolation game (third-place game) was played in 1981. In that game, Virginia defeated LSU 78–74 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The NCAA discontinued the game after that season.”

I have an idea for March madness final four. A consolation game with the two losing schools for third place. Maybe that’s dumb, but it would be fun to add another game Monday before the title game. With NIL, do it for prize money or something. Random thought today

@TSBBracketology @jman6598 If we hadn’t beaten Michigan in the B10 tournament, we maybe switch seedings with Illinois and have their path instead of Arizona in the way. Another thing to not think about. 🙄

Headed downtown for the Final Four and I think the makeup has only just sunk in. - 2 B1G opponents that I don’t like. - Team that beat Purdue two years ago on this stage. - Team that beat Purdue last Saturday to prevent them from making the stage again. What a disaster.

@JoJoFromJerz If it’s not a fundraiser, it will be “if I had been flying that plane, I wouldn’t have been shot down. Throughout my life, I was always told that I would have been a fighter pilot the lives of which the world has never seen.”

Reports now that Hegseth oversold the war to Trump and underestimated Iran's willingness to fight back. It's almost as if he's unqualified for his job. Too bad the Senate didn't have confirmation hearings; those would have proven his manifest unsuitability to lead the Pentagon.

This week's market rally to nowhere was another example of Trump's superpower: making us stupid enough to fall for his act every single time.

@KeithGross @POTUS Hey stupid, you can’t alter the Constitution with a simple majority. How does a dumb fuck, like you, convince himself that he’s qualified to run for Congress?

As everyone is focused on the SCOTUS hearing on @POTUS Executive Order ending Birthright Citizenship, I can’t help but wonder: Why hasn’t Congress passed a LAW ending birthright citizenship? We have a majority.

@HicksCBER @SenTomCotton If only the founding fathers had thought to give the legislative branch a means to propose an amendment to the constitution if they felt it was necessary. Maybe Tom should look into that if he’s steadfast in his opinion.

Birthright citizenship for illegal aliens has no basis in the Constitution. I hope that the Supreme Court rules in favor of ending this abusive practice.

@Craiger47374 @mobanks10 Probably won’t offer that until after a couple of summer practices. 5 new guys coming in plus two redshirts I haven’t seen play since the exhibition game. Not going to make a guess until I put eyes on em.

It’s day 1 of a new era. Here’s some things I’m interested in looking ahead to the next iteration of this team. 1. Coach Painter has constantly adapted his offense to his personnel over the years. Purdue went from the most post up heavy team to shooting the most 3’s in the country, back to the most post up heavy team in about a 4 year span between 2017-18 to 2020-21. Purdue was one of the lowest PnR usage teams in the entire country during those years, and then came Braden Smith, and they became one of the highest PnR usage teams. How does this team morph to fit its current personnel? Time will tell, but I’m looking forward to seeing which direction the coaching staff goes. 2. Leading up to the season I often talked about how Omer had primarily thrived in high on-ball usage environments. This year he had to adapt to lower on-ball and lower volume shot taking, making it harder for him to get into rhythm. What does his production look like when he gets higher usage with the ball in his hands and higher shot volume? 3. C.J. Cox has shown the ability to explode offensively at times, but has almost always been the 5th option as a starter. How much can his scoring expand when he’s a primary option? Will we see sets similar to what they ran for Carsen to get him volume shooting from 3 and midrange? 4. Jacobsen had an up and down season and Purdue was in natty or bust mode this year, so he didn’t get the chance to work through as many developmental moments in game time this year, but he showed flashes at times. When those minutes expand, can he develop and become yet another elite big man at Purdue? 5. Players have raved about Antione West all year. I was convinced he wouldn’t redshirt this year because of the supreme confidence he has in himself. He has a chance to be an immediate impact player on both ends of the court from game 1 next season. Will the hype come to fruition? 6. Raleigh Burgess has put a ton of work into his body. He looks leaner, stronger, and will inevitably have more endurance than his first year. He seems to fit in the slightly undersized center role that can play the 4 also. With Purdue’s current front court and Pierce coming in, how is he utilized next year? 7. Gicarri became a much more confident shooter this year, was a solid defender, and at times attacked the rim, but had a limited role after starting for a while his freshman year. In year 3 will he move back into a starting role? Will he become someone that can consistently use his strength to get downhill? 8. Jack played backup 4 out of necessity, but his more natural offensive fit seems to be at the 3 in a Sasha or Cline role. With Pierce coming in, does he move to a 3? With less experience in the front court, will he need to back up the 4 spot still? Can his defense improve enough to guard 1-3 on switches? 9. Pierce had a dominant sophomore year in the Ivy League, and then played his junior year hobbled by injury much of the year. He’s got some athleticism and has been a capable shooter from outside, although it hasn’t been the highest percentage. Will he be used like a Vincent Edwards type of 4? To what degree will his game translate in the Big Ten? He was highly sought after from top programs, so it seems clear the belief is that it will translate well. 10. Which of the freshmen will be ready to contribute day 1? Going into the summer of Braden and Fletcher’s first year, few expected them to start day 1, let alone have the immediate impact they did. Few thought Zach would be ready to make an immediate impact as well. Does one or more of Ertel, Webber, Huan, or Knight come in and show the ability for day 1 impact?

@TDet71 @walkeri141 So you're saying they won't sell out the place without us being there? That's dumb.

@walkeri141 After every big win, social media erupts with “the refs gave the game to Purdue.” Every single time. It’s hard to get used to Purdue being the villain nationally.

After a quick scroll on X, a few things are clear to me: 1. Half of y’all have never blocked someone out a day in your life. 😂 2. Somehow everything is an F1 “Hook and hold” 3. A lot of people have never watched Big Ten ball. 4. #BoilerUp
