  1. Juwan will be missed. One of my all time favorites as well. No scandals—and all class. But most of all—he worked his tail off —on and off the floor to become the great player he is today. He may not be the type of player the NBA scouts go crazy about—but he is a GREAT college basketball player. Heart—desire—hustle. I hope he leads us to a lot more W’s this season. Let’s enjoy every minute of it because players like Juwan don’t come along that often. Hats off to J-MO !


  2. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays—Hoosier Nation!  The team already gave us an early Christmas present with an undefeated Month of December. Let’s build on that. I hope everyone enjoys some time off with their family and friends. For my family—we also celebrate the birth of the Christ child. And—as I recently told a UK fan—even Santa wears red and white! Whatever your traditions may be—it sure is awesome to be part of the best fan base in the world. 

    GO HOOSIERS!


  3. Pretty cool for Freddie. Met him once, seemed like a real good dude. Worked his butt off and went from JuCo to a major program and got his degree. Nice work!

    Agree—Congrats Seniors! Freddie really embraced his IU experience. He recently came to southern Indiana to a youth basketball camp and was great with the kids and did a great job representing IU. That’s the kind of players we want...

  4. Only problem is it makes for a really long season. By the time you get to tourney time not sure you are playing your best basketball. I think, it hurt Purdue this year. 


    True — but we have a lot of depth now so we could spread the minutes around on a brief summer tour. Plus we could limit the extra number of games and even keep close by such as in Canada again. I would love to eliminate those early losses like to ISU and IPFW and get a great start out of the gate in the Big Ten. Plus as a fan—I selfishly want to get the season started and enjoy every minute of Romeo while we have him. So—007 do you know if Archie has done these overseas trips in the past at Dayton or is he not a fan of them?

  5. This would be a good summer for a summer trip. Like when we went to Canada with Blackmon.

    Yes—would help with all the newcomers. It certainly gave Purdue a big head start this past season and I would love to see it springboard our team to better offense and team defense early. Plus—it lets Archie experiment with different lineups.

  6. I like that it was reported Evan likes Archie’s pack line defense. He will also draw another team’s big out of the lane because they will have to respect his shooting which will allow Romeo-Devonte-Al-Robert-Juwan —etc. to drive the lane.

  7. Welcome to the Hoosiers—Evan! A very solid pick up. Some posters wanted another big and some posters wanted another shooter. We just got both! A 6’10” kid that shoots 3’s at over a 40 percent clip. Win-win. Well done—Archie!
