Dianna Russini was daring Mike Vrabel to say, “making love to you in your hotel room this morning.”

TREY KAUFMAN-RENN GAME-WINNER 🚨 PURDUE ADVANCES TO THE ELITE 8 🤯

Death. Taxes. Matt Painter.

ELITE!!!! Survive and advance.

Purdue has now reached the Elite Eight twice in the last 3 years, and 3 times in the last 7 NCAA Tournaments. Prior to 2019, the Boilers had not been to the Elite Eight since 2000. The 3 Elite Eight berths for Matt Painter are the MOST by a HC in Purdue history. A good run.

Love this from #Illini head coach Brad Underwood - asked if he has any issue/finds it unfair to have to play Houston IN Houston in the Sweet 16. "I could care less... I'm an old JUCO ball coach. I drove on 16 passenger fans. I drove from Dodge City, Kansas to Mesa, Arizona for a basketball game... If you had told me back then that I'm getting to coach basketball in the Sweet 16 and play Houston - I would sign up for it, I would crawl to get there." Says regardless of where the game is, Illinois would/will need to play well to beat the Cougars. (Video from NCAA)

Death. Taxes. Matt Painter.

😤 President Chiang got us FIRED UP!

"Just trusting my teammates to get me the ball in the right spots..." Fletcher Loyer told @JonRothstein how he was able to catch fire vs. Miami and drop 24 points on 7 shots.

SWEET 16 HERE WE COME! AGAIN!

No one has done it better. Congrats Braden on an incredible achievement.

Moving onto Round ✌️. ✔️: Smith - 26 pts, 8 asts, 3 rebs ✔️: TKR - 25 pts, 9 rebs, 3 asts ✔️: Loyer - 14 pts, 2 rebs, 1 ast ✔️: Cox - 11 pts, 4 rebs ✔️: Cluff - 9 pts, 11 rebs, 5 asts, 4 blks

From @TheAthletic: Purdue point guard Braden Smith enters Friday’s game against Queens just one assist away from tying Duke great Bobby Hurley’s Division I record. Smith has 1,075 assists, and he remembers them all. nyti.ms/4uHoHDZ
