3quartertime Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 Had to wait a few games to see if it was just hype, but now I think I can brag just a bit... 9-0 4th in the nation!!! Haven't got to watch all the games. I guess the offense isn't clicking at all times. Don't care if they keep winning! Conference play is coming up and MS and OS are both ranked. Gotta keep that D strong! GO BOILERS!!!
3quartertime Posted February 18, 2010 Author Posted February 18, 2010 Had to leave this alone for a few. Have been up and down this year and it's been waaay nerve racking!!! But the boys are digging deep and finding that extra bit they need. I'm really looking forward to March Madness!!! Go Boilers!!! 22-3 #4 again!!!
Corey Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 BOILER UP!!! Everyone is talkin they have a serious chance of pulling a #1 seed for the Tourney!
Jadeslade Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 About as much chance as Rick Mount suiting up. I always think that number one seeds and being undefeated are sure ways to never get to the Final Four, unless you are UCLA and John Wooden is your coach. See-I got the two best Purdue players in one post!
3quartertime Posted February 18, 2010 Author Posted February 18, 2010 BOILER UP!!! Everyone is talkin they have a serious chance of pulling a #1 seed for the Tourney! I think if we finish down 3 that's a real possibility. AND if we do go in as a #1 I think we are a lock for the final four. Unfortunately I don't think the boys are playing the caliber of ball that Kansas or even Kentucky are this year, but who knows once the dance starts!!!
3quartertime Posted February 18, 2010 Author Posted February 18, 2010 See-I got the two best Purdue players in one post! You sir, are to be commended for exceptional form!
Mikej Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 I will add a WooHoo go Purdue to this topic. Although I am an Auburn Grad (usually not much to brag about in basketball season)I spent two weeks at Purdue getting some education in Nuclear Pharmacy. In my mind that gives me the right to be a Purdue fan during basketball season. So I say, GO PURDUE!!!!
3quartertime Posted February 27, 2010 Author Posted February 27, 2010 Well as all that follow college basketball already know tragedy has struck Purdue basketball. One of the major, if not THE major part of our offense, Robbie Hummel injured his knee and is out for the season. This as we had just broken into #3 in the nation, probably a #1 seed going into the brackets AND to make it worse #1 Kansas and #2 Kentucky just lost!!! There really is no justice...
Jadeslade Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 This often when an underused freshman or blossoming player steps up-there great players on this team. Don't give up yet-I always think of Jim Valvano at moments like this-find a way to win.
BigDave Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 We're not done yet. We still have two of the top scorers in the Big 10 and arguably the best perimeter defender in the nation in Kris Kramer.
3quartertime Posted March 1, 2010 Author Posted March 1, 2010 Izzo said Purdue is still a very good team, but clearly different without Hummel.``Late in the game, when they need a basket, that's Hummel time,'' Izzo said. ``And in fairness, he wasn't there.''
3quartertime Posted March 22, 2010 Author Posted March 22, 2010 Well, I have to admit that I've been on the same band wagon as the sports talking heads. With Robbie out I've not given the Boiler's much chance. BUT,,, The boys are fighting hard!!! Texas A&M 61 at Purdue 63 Whoo Hoo!!! Go Boilers!!! Sweet 16 here we come!!!
BigDave Posted March 22, 2010 Posted March 22, 2010 Still not done. This is what you get when you recruit a football player for basketball.
TonyH Posted March 22, 2010 Posted March 22, 2010 Duke better not over look them, cause here they come, full of confidence & playing together again. Bench has started to look for shots & making plays.
Corey Posted March 22, 2010 Posted March 22, 2010 cant wait for the Duke game. when Purdue wins, my bracket will show a glimmer of hope, haha
