Fort Wayne coach talks like an idiot. He couldn't sell a $1 hot dog. Awful loss to a bunch of burgerboys

This was so pathetic. Fort Wayne is trash. I don't care what any of you say

Where is OG?

Wow! Feel much better this is going to OT

We will be very lucky to win this

Didn't even realize that and it makes it so much more intolerable

Unbelievable, we are going to lost this game!

IPFW has a nice team for the Summitt league, but I think we wipe the floor with them. Crean will not let our guys overlook this game. IMO Last time I watched Bryson Scott, he was stinking it up for PU. If he had to transfer out of that backcourt, YIKES! Not impressed at all with him. I do like Evans and think he is a very nice player.

Purdue did not have a very impressive half

DD is the real deal

They have to start swallowing some of these or it will be completely unwatchable come big ten season

We will have our naysayers over that first 10 mins (which wasn't good). They hit some really tough shots early. Overall, I think we played ok minus some turnovers. I will say this about the defense.... it's like our guys are afraid to breathe on the other team because of all the ref fouls and only having 5 to give.

That guy behind Crean needs to start doing some work on that nacho tray

Everyone that's thinking the sky is falling won't remember this game come march. Guaranteed. We certainly have things to work on but let's get real here. We have a terrific and very young squad

They are hitting everything

He doesn't give a rats ass

Wouldn't be an IU game without TV Ted...

JBJ is a stud

Like the hustle from Newkirk early

I think Haas has a chance in the NBA also. He is not a flawless prospect by any means, but displays good touch and footwork consistently. Crucial for the 5 spot. You can't teach that height, either.

I think Purdue looked good for the most part tonight. They had some silly TOs and the refs didn't do them any favors. I like them over MSU and maybe Wisconsin. The one thing Purdue is missing is a big time guard and that definitely showed on that last possession (smh lol). If they had just one guy who could dominate on the outside, they would easily be as good as we are. The big difference in our rosters is we have guys who can handle the ball against other big time guards (as displayed against Kansas). They clearly do not have top talent at those 1-2 positions and I think that will hold them back just enough this year.

I completely agree. The bigtime win on national tv will do us some good for the 2018 class, as well as our bigtime season this year. I think Crean and the program are going to finally get the good publicity they deserve and we will certainly pick up momentum. As for next year... Assuming OG,TB, and JBJ all leave early. We are still absolutely loaded next year. Maybe not top ten but still top twenty in what would most likely still be a transition year but still a solid outlook in 2017. We would still have a solid lineup. A transfer grad big will probably be necessary to be a champ contender. Starters... Senior-Newkirk Senior-Johnson Sophomore-Jones Junior-Morgan Sophomore-Davis Bench... Sophomore-Green Freshman-Smith Freshman-Moore Sophomore-Gelon Senior-Priller Senior-Hartman?? I know I'm missing a couple plus walk-ons, but we will have plenty of talent. Enough to at least compete big time

Here may be some solutions for the espn games for you. BTN plus is trash. If you have a 4K smart tv, download the Espn app, you should be able to use the app to get the espn3 games on your tv after you enter your cable provider plus email and password... I think that may work for the Espnu game as well. If you can't do that, you can stream to the tv through your Xbox One and 360, PlayStations, etc. (they also have Espn app) Of course, you have the shitty laptop stream option. But even then, you can buy a cord to connect the laptop (depending on your laptop) to the 4K so you can still watch on the tv.

We played this game like we were playing with house money as the underdogs. I like that attitude for our team. Very interested to see how we play as heavy favorites. It's easy to get hyped up for a highly ranked team and easy to let your guard down against some not so good ones. It's going to be a long season of some ups and downs. But, things certainly looks promising. Great for our guys

Green looks like an absolute steal
