Thanks for nothing Brett!

If that does come together they have to take St Mary's, too. Probably the best non-power conference rivalry in the country.

Get well Coach Keady. It’s always sweeter winning in Mackey with Coach scowling in the stands.

Don’t know exactly where to post, but on the topic of tickets. Last year I bought the 6 game package plan. Does anyone know if they are doing that again and if so, when it will be able to purchased or anything.

I used to purchase the mini series every year, it is not always 6 games but they have had it available for at least the last 4 years. According to my purchase history, they should be announced this week or next.

Braden Smith? 

Put the hooch pipe down, Andy!

I expect a 4 game package this year - UT Chattanooga, Winthrop, Rutgers and USC.

Andy Katz sure has gone out of his way to display affection for Purdue lately. 

 

"Top 10 Juniors" lol. Like anyone has ever wondered who the best juniors are in college basketball.

Don't ask and you shall receive...

Torvik's projected top 10 juniors!

Smith will have an opportunity to prove himself this season. Without Mongo in the post converting 75% of his lobs into assists, it will be a whole new world.  

I am sure Smith is better than I think he is, but one of the top few Jr's in the NCAA? Doubt it.

I keep forgetting Storr went to KU. I still think there’s a small chance he causes chemistry issues there and Wisconsin rebounds with a nice squad led by Klesmit.

Rothstein - Duke freshman Patrick Ngongba is out indefinitely with a foot injury, per a school spokesman.

Kid barely played last year because of foot stuff. That is not promising.

Apparently they do now.

Am I missing something? I think Braden Smith is a fine player. 

But the best in the B1G?

Sorry -- I'm just not seeing it.

Gallo already gives him fits. Then he dumped it in to Edey and all was well.

This year? Gallo gives him fits and he dumps it in to, errrrr... Willie Berg. Or Furst.

Yea that makes sense. I'm assuming he averages like 17 points and 8 assists. And Purdue will be a Top 15 team.
