I'm saying he's clearly good enough to help make Purdue a good team. So trashing him as if we wouldn't take that kind of production on IU is ridiculous.

He was outmatched in every way Saturday and Purdue was in that game despite him getting ragdolled all over the floor for 38 minutes, not because of him. IU freakin' sucks, so I'd take the 3rd guard off the bench from Tarleton State. You're arguing a point I'm not making.

Loyer was a fantastic asset with Edey because Edey was drawing a double and sometimes triple team every time he touched the ball. And when Loyer got roasted on straight line drives he had a 7'4" guy waiting at the rim; but not anymore. His shooting is still excellent without Edey because a really good squared up shot form doesn't change. But without Edey he's had to handle the ball more and his turnovers have increased by exactly 50% this season versus last season and the season before.

Without Edey? Loyer is (no disrespect to Matt) Matt Roth at IU. A deadly open catch and shoot guy that can't do much else and is a proven lousy defender. For crying out loud, Loyer, as a tons of minutes starting junior, STILL gets subbed out during end game defensive situations. And this year he's getting subbed out in favor of two freshmen guards, Harris and Cox.

Good mid major game tonight on a limited slate. Grand Canyon /Louisiana Tech tied late first half on espn+.
 

Or you can watch the Bears continue to do stupid ish if that’s your thing;)

I follow my Bears like I follow my Hoosiers... don't watch, but check the boxscore afterwards and sigh.

Actually, I’m keeping a pretty good eye on the Falcons-Raiders. I’m feeling a possible Michael Penix sighting.

Drake/Kansas St in OT.   Drake is up 4 with 2:17 to go 

There are five teams I make sure to watch every game of this year: Indiana, UConn, Duke, Drake, Seton Hall. 

Drake plays some of the most beautiful basketball I've seen. They are an easy dark hose pick to go far in March. 

Also, Coleman Hawkins has been pretty underwhelming this year.
