Purdue football spring showcase is underway.

@jamesaydelott @NWS Why? Say more please. Partners are recipients of NWS expertise and tools. Tailored products need partner support, financially or in-kind. Many products and services at federally funded agencies is a cost-share. Maybe the NWS is heading into the USGS abyss.

Troy is 100% correct. @NWS should be soliciting input from the Weather Ready Nation/Impact-based Decision Support partners.

@nowayexist @AdamSchefter Indiana -It’s fine…NY Teams play in NJ. Fan base intact and accessible for decades.

@AdamSchefter The "Indiana Bears" just doesn’t have the same ring to it—Illinois better move fast before they lose a legend.

The Chicago Bears will decide where to build their new stadium in the next few weeks, per league sources. If Illinois doesn’t pass legislation for Arlington Heights soon, sources believe the Bears are likely to be Indiana bound. Two proposed sites in Chicago are not considered feasible, per sources; next to Soldier Field for political reasons, and the land known as Michael Reese was evaluated and rejected by the NFL and the Bears.

@PappenheimWx Live in a floodplain…it will eventually let you know. Not unexpected.

MAJOR RIVER FLOODING is occurring this Easter Sunday evening in Saint Charles, Michigan, as significant rainfall has caused river levels across the Midwest to rise rapidly. Numerous homes throughout town are completely surrounded by water, and In my three years of living in Mid Michigan, I have never seen it quite this bad…

@TC_Gillespie32 Indy a good venue for sports. The best? Ask residents along South Meridian or in Hawville. The hype, pleasantries and fans are temporary. The $$ at the end of the day goes mostly to out of state equity firms/hotel companies. Workers get a bump in pay & potholes.

Confirmed in nearly every convo had this week: The Final Four should be permanently held in Indianapolis. No other city comes close to embracing it in the same way.

@BarstoolPU Fan experience. Larger Volleyball venue. Nothing on Football.

Say you had $20M to spend on Purdue Athletics. How are you spending that money?

@stoolpresidente Indy is light years from a pizza haven. However, this place will satisfy your needs…thenyslice.com

I’ve been to Indy and done pizza many times. My experience is Indy is very much not a pizza city. Any places I need to hit this weekend?

🚨 Homeschoolers! Public school science teachers! Weather junkies! 🚨 We kick off this week's Weather101 lineup with The Basics of NWS. Can't make any of our other classes? This is the one to see. We wrap up the week talking about The Radar. Visit weather.gov/ohx/weather101 to register

@CBBonFOX Okay your Seniors are talented…but not well coached…think on that in the off season.

Purdue HC Matt Painter reacts to the season-ending loss and reflects on his seniors’ experience at Purdue and their contributions to the program.

@BoilerMuse Yes…no bang for the buck, but some fine individuals. Mediocrity rules due to stubbornness of Coach Painter.

Most March Madness Wins w/o National Championship 1. Purdue: 54 2. Illinois: 50 3. Gonzaga: 48 4. Houston: 47 T5. Texas 43 T5. Oklahoma: 43 T7. Notre Dame: 40 T7. Kansas State: 40 9. West Virginia: 38 10. Memphis: 35 T11. Alabama: 34 T11. Iowa: 34 T11. Tennessee: 34 We are due

@notcharliejones BS…ever heard of Braylon Mullins

The best in Indiana play basketball at Purdue

@seany_mcbuckets Unfortunately this group leaves a legacy of losing in clutch situations. NIL certainly will be the only legacy that Purdue is failing to capture. It’s admirable to have this trio but far from future reality.

May never see a four year class at one program like this Purdue class in college hoops ever again. in a landscape where everyone leaves at the first sign of adversity or chases a bag these 3 played four years together at one school and started every game. They're what college hoops should be and they should be praised for it.

@PurdueNILStore How many of those 3 pointers were is key transition moments? Especially in the loss to Arizona.

Purdue’s All-Time 3 Point Scorer, a true leader, and Mackey’s decibel record breaking shooter🏆 You are so fun to watch play 2, and we can’t wait to see what you do next. Thank you for everything.

@LifeAtPurdue @BoilerBall As a fan who shows up…dedication is welcome…winning would demonstrate determination and true sacrifice. Hope they enjoy their paychecks.

A team unlike any other. Thank you to @BoilerBall for all your hard work and dedication and to the fans who never stopped showing up, cheering on and hammering down. 💛🖤

@SchutteDustin You are absolutely correct. We will certainly look for more next year.

I don't care what Daniel Jacobsen's stat line looks like at the end of the game. That dude SHOWED UP tonight.

@CoachDanRoss Go out and welcome but expect better. They did well but couldn’t bring a win.

Boilers land just after 5pm at Purdue Airport today come out and shower with Love

@notcharliejones Following through with wins are important. Coach Painter had opportunities. Thank you. Now move on.

No coach deserves to win it all than him. He’ll get there soon I’ll never stop believing in a coach who wins the right way.

@DKsayingthings Used to be the norm…4 years and graduate together. Not a great thing but under NIL it is an exception. They are professionals now who needed to step up and win but fell short in Boilermaker tradition.

These three young men are forever Boilermaker legends. In the transfer portal era, they stayed all 4 years and gave their all to Purdue basketball. 2-3-4ever

@PurdueBaseball Good solid wins at both Maryland and Michigan State. You need all the runs you can get with the pitching weakness. Case in point Penn State third game at home.

#Purdue has won 3 straight Big Ten series for the 1st time since the team-record 11-game B1G win streak in April 2024. The Boilermakers hit 3 grand slams in their 1st series win in East Lansing since 2009. #BoilerUp boile.rs/BSBpost32926

@Thomasdunn24 Coming up short once again in clutch games. No denying the reason for getting there in the first place. Before NIL playing together all four years was the norm. These guys are the exception.

Fletcher Loyer and Trey Kaufman-Renn on what the fulfilling part of batting together was as a senior trio alongside Braden Smith FL: "We won a lot of games but I learned so much about these guys.....every single day they showed up with a smile on their face ready to work hard, ready to push me to by my best and our team to be our best. Really, I've learned so much from them and happy I got to play with them." TKR: "Being able to play for four years and develop that relationship, its something special. In this moment of college basketball to have that, I wouldn't change anything for that experience."
