Painter is for real, but with Purdue's lack of NIL and Edey having come and gone without a national title, Matt's best chance at ever winning one may have already passed.

I just like taking every opportunity to remind folks that Purdue has no national championships... ever... at all

Stunning development.

Stunning in that I didn’t think anyone associated with a university could get fired for something a trivial as academics.

Really surprising!

Purdue vs UConn scrimmage at 7 on BTN+ 

ETA: Bummer, it's on UConn's streaming service actually. Stream on YouTube, we'll see if it lasts

Near must watch?  I think I’ll tune in

In Hartford CT. It'll be Mullins' first action this preseason

I'm probably jinxing it saying this, but I will be pretty surprised if the final score is within 20 points

Hines should have a field day against Purdue's front court assuming he doesn't get into foul trouble early

Respect Painter but if he gets very good results with this roster he will really be outdoing himself IMO

Dare I say it? I think the long slow pendulum has finally hit its zenith with PU and is now just starting it’s swing back towards IU bball. Not saying we’ll ever get back to the level I grew up with, but the building blocks are now in place to regularly compete in top half to better in conf and for regular tournament appearances

Game isn't on Big Ten +.  Only available through UConn's $9.95 pay per view and WFSB online streaming but looks like that isn't available outside of a local area.

Thanks!  I tried going to WFSB's website and it wasn't showing there.  Didn't think about checking Youtube.

U Conn up 14-7 on Purdue at the under 12 timeout.

[Home Jersey]

Purdue has been getting really good ball pressure on UConn making them work really late into the shot clock for tough shots. UConn clearly the more talented team.

Can't express how nice it is watching a Purdue team without Smith, Loyer, Edey

[TheWatShot]

29-13 UConn at the under 4 timeout. If it wasn't Purdue on the losing end, it would be a rough watch. 

[RaceToTheTop]

U Conn 29, Purdue 13 at the under 4 timeout.

Purdue's offense blows.

[RaceToTheTop]

U Conn 35-20 at half.

[RaceToTheTop]

First half:  Purdue shot 27% and 7% from three.
