“They’re dancin’ in Teaneck, NJ” says the caller. When my father sent me to Old Rutgers from my home in Teaneck, I was glad I didn’t have to go to FuhDoo, and I live about 90 mins from Purdue! I feel happy for their fans!

Remember this when you expect freshmen to be big time players right away.
You're right, but you're also talking about not highly rated freshman who have gotten worn down and exposed, in large part by Rutgers and the way we played them. If you are physically and mentally capable doesn’t matter how old you are.

Wonder if this pushes Pike to schedule at least a little better OOC. Wonder if the committee will start really punishing the B1G next year.

pike couldnt have made it any clearer that there are certain easily gained edges to make your team better positioned to succeed that he has no interest in pursuing.

Which one of Purdue’s Freshmen was a five star? Which one was a top 100?
I recall Indiana and Illinois both had very highly rated guards in the not so distant past that never materialized into stars. Geo even commented on it in a podcast.

In conference games, teams only shoot 7.8 FTM and 10.7 FTA vs Purdue.
That's it over a 20 game schedule. Least in both categories.
They shoot 13.6-18.4, 2nd most and 3rd most

Last year, teams shoot 10.6-14.2, 2nd and 1st least

Penn St shoots the least of any B1G team 7.4-10.4 in conf
B1G shoots the 2nd most vs Nebraska in conf
B1G shoots the 3rd and 4th most vs Rutgers in conf

You watch Hofstra fdu St. Peter’s etc and wonder why can’t we get guard play
The amazing St Peter’s guards must’ve killed it when they transferred, right? Oh, well Daryl Banks did solid in a bad A10, Matthew Lee barely got minutes for Missouri State and Edert was a total flop in a worse conference. Cam Spencer better than all those guards besides maybe Hofstra’s Estrada.
