I guess the Elite 8 is Ben McCollum's ceiling at 44 years old...

I am pretty high on McCollum, but...

Archie Miller made an Elite 8 at age 35. With an A-10 team.

Crazy things can happen in single elimination tournaments. I don't feel much differently about McCollum today than I did two weeks ago.

If you don't see a difference between McCollum and Archie that's fine. We can just watch what he does.

I don't like Purdue based on the rivalry or their fans and have no interest in seeing them win it all.

However, no one can tell me that watching Purdue is not beautiful basketball that we should strive for at IU and you have to respect Painter. If you removed the names on the jerseys they are everything you want in a basketball team and the way they are built and play. 

Would love to see three Big Ten teams in Final Four including Purdue with Illinois and Michigan playing for national championship to end the drought conference has. I want no part of Duke or UConn winning it yet again (even over Purdue) but would be totally cool with Michigan, Illinois, Arizona or Tennessee winning it in that order for some new blood.

I think he's a good coach. No argument there. Just saying one unexpected tourney run is no guarantee of future success.
