So, Marcus Carr just put a million on OSU in the 2nd half and they flat refused to run a double or trap at him?

Maybe a couple of folks ‘round here can put off the canonization of Chris Holtmann  for at least a bit longer.

Not that it will matter but Wesson has about 4 fouls since he picked up his 4th foul. Can’t believe he didn’t get called for any of them on the road

I am glad u think so as well. Kind of unbelievable

Think he could have been whistled for illegal screens on back to back possessions where the refs just “looked the other way.”

Curious how quickly Haarms bounces back. He’s a tough kid. Very tough and competitive. Let’s see how he and Purdue handle this.

Honestly I’d be surprised if he misses more than 1 game.

If that happened to an Indiana player he would be done for the season and whoever was close to him would miss multiple games having witnessed it but playing for Purdue yeah probably 1 game

Kind of wondering why these concussions seem to be more common in today's game? I know I am old and back in the day these things wasn't taken as serious but also dont remember very many players staggering off the court like a NFL player either. Anyone have a opinion on this?

Haarms’s was a really bad moment in any era.

Bobby Wilkerson got KO'ed in the championship game in '76 and I think spent the night in a hospital. If I recall correctly, he didn't return to Bloomington with the team but returned later. But you are absolutely right that it wasn't a common occurrence or at least wasn't diagnosed. Probably more of the latter.

I think it's a fairly weird freak event. Current streak is 13 games over 8 game days. Closest in my database is 11 straight over 6 game days in 2011. Also 5-day streaks in 2013 (9 games) and 2014 (8 games).
