If you’re not constantly negative you’re not intelligent enough to realize what’s going on. It’s impossible to understand the current situation and post positivity. Also, if you don’t post that you want Archie fired you completely support him and the direction of the program.

I guess we can just repeat that all we need is a shooter and next year is the year.

As long as it’s in another and not this one people can repeat whatever they want

Purdue/Rutgers and Iowa/Northwestern tonight.     This is the first ever meeting between Iowa and Northwestern where both teams will be ranked

I heard this on the Maryland/Wiscy broadcast last night.  180 meetings and the first where both teams are ranked.  I wonder if there are longer streaks at the major conference level.

Florida State at Clemson, will be interested to see how FSU plays on the road in conference too.  The ACC seems like it's a bit down this season.

Both sides can be quite extreme.  When I voiced my strong desire to not hire Archie, I was laughed at by pompous posters who told me I don't understand basketball.  I heard it for a couple years until more people on here got vocal about his deficiencies.  Then we were told we're only being negative.

In retaliation I've engaged in rhetoric myself.  In truth this board is full of very intelligent people.  The dumpers are not just negative and they know basketball.  The pumpers are not just pumping and they know basketball. There's just so much rhetoric from both sides.

I think one problem with this board is that most everybody post anonymously so they can go overboard.  Obviously that's not exclusive to this board, it's the anonymity of the interwebz.

I'll see myself back to the negative thread.  But I ask that you let us have that one to vent.  Don't bring your pumping in there!

Give me a FN break. It’s no wonder everyone cheats.

Didn't have to face OSU's leading scorer, now this. Miami was also down 2 starters when they played them. 

 

Purdue is going to be that team that ends up 13-7 or 14-6 in conference and everyone is going to wonder how they did it.

Memphis struggling with South Florida at home.   South Florida up 10 with 11 min to go

Being in the double bonus while only having 5 second half fouls is pretty crazy for such a physical team. Big Ten loving football on the hardwood.

Harper is one of the top ten players in the B1G. The freshman C Omaruyi is out for Rutgers too.

And ... Purdooooo is down seven with 59 seconds left. Still a little worried about Rutgers holding on, but I AM PLEASED!

Memphis comes back and wins by 1

Rutgers beats Purdoo without Harper.

He’s missed two games with what Rutgers is saying is a sprained knee, so who knows.

Northwestern and Iowa are freaking good.  Wish iu could shoot half as good as these two teams.
