Sure, but damned if it didn't work against a UNC offense that has been cruising lately. Even with a good ACCT showing they're probably a 4/5 at best, but as long as Perrantes is actually back again, some 1 seed or another is going to hate having them in the bracket.

I fully expect Purdue to win out to raise expectations, get a 3 seed, and then lose to a 6 seed UVA 45-38 in a game that makes the tourney game against Cincinnati a couple years ago look competent and fun

There's probably not a team in the country better set up to beat UVA than WV though.

Edit: while I'm at it I will doom WV by noting that they should be considered a very serious title threat this year.

UVA is typically indistinguishable from Dick Bennett and Bo Ryan era Wisconsin, for obvious reasons

I think if we got a good draw we could make a deep run. I am worried about our inability to close out games, but I think we could be very dangerous if we get a good draw and get Esa healthy.

did you guys hear Tom Crean specifically called the Big10 and complained about Purdue's student section papers after Purdue's student section specifically went bland because they knew Tom Crean is the biggest loving baby in the Big10?

There are now two coaches that have specifically called the Big10 to complain specifically about Purdue's student section papers: Tom Crean and Tom Izzo.

can you imagine being so petty that this is what you worry about? lmao

Some Indiana fans are convinced Brad Stevens is going to be the next coach because I'm sure he hates making so much money they won't tell us coaching possibly the best young nucleus of players with more high draft picks coming in at possibly the most prestigious NBA program in the country.

Second game in a row with a slow start like this. Lucky to be as close as they are. Again. A few weeks ago it was giving up big leads late in the game. It would be nice if this team could learn play two good halves in the same game.

Kentucky came back from being down 19 to knock of Vandy and secure the SEC title. Vandy was up 25-6 with 8 minutes to go in the first half. It was 30-24 at the half, and Vandy jumped ahead big again in the second half. This is the second game in a row they've overcome a big deficit to win. And they let Georgia jump out to a 12-0 lead a couple games ago too. Only time I can remember something like this is the '98 team that overcame 3 big deficits in a row to win the title. Comeback Cats 2.0?

I mean, obviously Steve Alford will be the next Indiana coach. It was a long con and it worked quite well.

If you're gonna be completely stupid why set your sights so low? Maybe Greg Popovich is bored and wants to try college basketball. Phil Jackson could get fired, you should try to get him! Or perhaps The Ghost of Noted Indiana Native John Wooden. All of these are every bit as realistic as Brad Stevens deciding to leave the Celtics to take over the like 7th best team in the Big Ten
