LOL.  I knew something would break when I decided to eat lunch and do a little actual work.

Whoever it was on the other site that said this morning we would know today and be pleased not happy kind of nailed it.  Personally, I'd call it a solid hire.  Maybe even a home run, but not a grand slam.  It will be interesting to see the PC and I'll bet we hear "we got the guy we wanted all along", LOL.  They always say that.

I certainly feel that AM is an upgrade over FCTC.  I think he's a better X's & O's guy and almost have to be a much better recruiter seeing as how FCTC pretty much alienated Indiana HS coaches.  That said, Archie isn't inheriting a stacked roster, nor anything close to a depleted one like 9 years ago.  I fully expect to see significant improvement in year one and to starting meeting expectations in year 2 or 3 - if not, I'll be disappointed.

Do we really want to talk **** about sweet 16s?

Yep, sure do. Guess it depends on how you feel about Archie. I love the hire, think he is easily going to take us to deeper than the Sweet Sixteen.

 

Also, my comment was more a jab at the low expectations that Purdue fans accpet

Don't know what this means. ... I think Blackmon's gone, regardless. And I can't say I know the dynamic of this team, but I think there's a reason we were champs in 16 and chumps in 17. Recall how much better we got without JBJ last season?

Does anyone have kenpom offense/defense stats for Dayton the past few years handy?

It'd be nice to see his strength of schedule too, I really hope our RPI improves in the non-conference now.
