Team building exercise but I would be freaking out.

When Purdon't gets sent to Spokane instead of Indy for the first weekend, we'll know its because the Spokane Arena has an elevator between the locker room and the court.

I bet Purdue wished that happened to FDU last year in the tournament

May’s another good half from cementing himself as IU’s next coach on message boards across Indiana.

Knights win

With NW losing there are now 9 teams between 8-6 and 6-8 4th and brought 12th

Huh....I had to go to a board meeting and Northwestern was up 22-11 in the early going.  Must have played pretty poorly after that.

Temple has made a lot of shots for an 8 win team.

They lost a starting guard to a flagrant 2 and was already without Berry.

This has completely crossed over into the high school games I've watched.....the number of flagrant foul calls is ridiculous.  Accidents happen -- and let's face it, if his arm had grazed anywhere except his nuts, they aren't even calling that a foul.  I'm starting to see flagrant fouls called on every breakaway dunk attempt where the defender makes a play and makes contact with the dunker's hands in high school games.

Bottom line, flagrant fouls should be limited to plays where the intent is to injure.

Rodents just went on an 11-0 run to take a 3-point lead over the Toiletmakers. 

33-30 with just under 4 minutes left in the first half.

So who is gonna foul out for Minny in the last 3:30?

Not watching but did Painter put Edey back in with two fouls

Yep -- he's back in. 

[LIHoosier 26,512]

Sorry not watching, but Edey has 2 fouls in the first half? at home?!? 

Did he murder someone on the Gophers staff?

[LamarCheeks 19,433]

Rodents pouring it on -- 41-33 with 2:04 left in first half. LOL. 

Minny with nine 3s already.

Minny won’t keep it up long enough to win, but they’re playing like a hot tourney team and Purdue’s guards simply can’t keep up.  
 

They could get a good draw and win it all. But there’s a reason they’ve been bounced by teams with hot guard play the last few years.
