Frustrating night in Mackey

[Courtsensetwo]

Executive Summary: Kudos to Renn for making the play when it mattered most. For the second game in a week IU pisses a win away.

This was the smallest IU fan showing at this game that I have ever seen. Would surprised if there were 200 IU fans there although I assume some don't wear crimson in that place (like me).

Place is loud as hell with that round metal roof and the seething hate from these purple faced fans.

The good: The effort was there most of the night and the shots fell a bit more. Goode and MM were solid. Carlyle was out sick and Rice was rumoured to be sick as well...don't know. We really missed Cupps last night IMO not for his shooting or even defense but IU had a large advantage up front and Gabe makes good decisions and will get the ball to Ballo better than anyone else we have. Gallo had a good second half after struggling in H1. That haircut is awful btw. Good looking kid...why do that?

The Bad: Rice made a terrible choice with that shot with 3ish sec left down 1. Ballo was there and they had no answer...game would have been over. Was he fouled? Could not tell from the angle we had but it seems strange that a shot that is not tipped flops onto the floor five feet away. I will watch the replay in a bit. Not sure if you saw it on TV but Ballo who then forced to foul was enraged at Rice in the huddle...I do like the fire and Rice deserved it. Then the hail mary...wtf Mike? MR is not back in game shape, that was obvious.

Purdue: Admittedly this was the first full game i have seen them play but this was basically a two-man show with Brandon Smith and TKR making it happen. Moze has a deadly fall back jumper and his defense was good. he has quick hands and stole the ball at will. No one else impressed.

The refs: Neither team has much to complain about, there are always missed calls. IF Rice was fouled, and I don't know that yet...then that one mattered.

The fans there crack me up, they need to require season ticket holders to read a rule book and take a test. They booed everything and the BullShit chants were frequent. At least the IU sucks was in context as it is once a year. Midway through the first half Leal got Moze up in the air on a three pointer and drew the foul. Textbook. Perfectly executed. The place went apeshit and I was not impressed by the people behind us screaming "**** You Leal", or the ones screaming that Ballo is an "Ape that needs to be in the zoo". My clients who take me to these games were embarassed. But I hear dumb****s in TAH as well.

Anyway, if can live with the loss, I expected to get blown out. Hopefully Scott has told Quinn to stay out of this and is back channeling daily.

Saw Ballo losing his shit in the huddle. Didn’t know if he was mad at the no-call on the Rice shot, or mad at Rice for forcing the shot. Either way Leal was trying to calm him down. Big boy was not happy.

I thought the same at first but it became clear he wanted a "word" with Myles.

Iu sucks is in context? Paint crew only chants it vs iu. Purdue supporting cast didn’t play well last night. Didn’t think Smith played all that well either tbh. Cox and Harris will be good in time. They are freshman.

Place was also loud vs Michigan. It’s not just an iu thing. FYI.

Iu played the best game I’ve seen them play this year. They’d make the tournament if they played like that. Can they only get up for Purdue?

If they play like this the rest of the way the could get some wins, but I’m afraid the answer to your last question is yes.

20 turnovers were a killer. Lead to points the other way and gave Purdue the help they needed on a night they didn’t play very well.

Seems I remember watching the championship game last year and they chanted it at the Mackey watch party. It was exhibit A in the case of little brother syndrome. I guarantee if IU ever makes it to the title game again, PU wouldn't be on our fans' radar.

And yes, we have sucked for quite some time.

 

[BoilerN]

Ya. I think they could still make the tournament with that effort the rest of the way.

 

[apm1003]

IU played hard last night as I suspected they would. There were a few critical errors that cost them the game. I do not understand why Goode does not start. Mgbako was hot last night which was a change and really helped. If I were Woodson, I would start both. If hot, they would open it up for Ballo, who Purdue could really not stop. If they could change and play hard regularly, they are a tournament team.

Does MM even care that he hasn't beat PU yet?

 

[Woodsa]

It would take some strong road (quality) wins for Indiana to make the NCAA tournament. In fact, I fear, they are in danger of not making the B10 tournament if they don't right the ship in the back half of the season.

Would be a shame if IU made the NCAA tournament. The embarrassing loss that would happen adds another layer of shame onto an extinct dinosaur that doesn't know it has expired.

The best was the video of the PU Home bar in AZ where the entire place was chanting IU Sucks. I hope they never change, as this defines them.

Cox must have very strong hands -- all that grabbing and arm bars but he didn't even lose a fingernail.

Go away

Cox is very good defensive player for a freshman. The kid can really shoot and get the rim. Getting into Purdues starting line-up
is pretty impressive. Both him and Harris both have the bodies to be very productive in the future.

 

[BoilerN]

Go away

Literally just said iu played really well. But ok.

And that does what for us?

It is a college kid thing.
Much like Pub Crawls and Fountain Runs and …….

Grow up son.

You seem to be inordinately interested in their subordinate stature.
Yet having signed off on and paid for progeny to attend the
“pig barn”??

Little man Fraud.

And you have told us all of. your money
and access. You cool Agnus.

And because you are present at every game/everywhere who could argue.

I’m not arguing.

Just forever sick of your “look at me” bullshit.

I’m positive my ass is uniquely tired of awesome you.

Sure .

STFU for once.

Grown ass adults not "college kids" dipshit. Reading comprehension has always been a issue for you.

And you were probably one of them chanting in AZ wee man.

my money, access, cool angus (I have no cows)? That is on you.

You won last night, enjoy it and have another drink.

Alcohol and depression has never been a good combo for you wee man.

 

[BoilerN]

That's the only truth you said

Oh? What did I say that was a lie?

 

[Courtsensetwo]

It was pretty physical on both ends. Then the refs call these marginal moving screens.

You said your ass "is uniquely tired of awesome you."

What the hell did you mean to suggest by that? LOL.

Maybe you didn't lie. It doesn't have to be a "lie" to be an untruth.

Your constant claims about the paint crew.

Which is what? That they don’t chant iu sucks every game? How is that a lie? They don’t. Haven’t for at least 5 years.

Why you lol’ing? You going to tell me Purdue does hellfire and chants iu sucks at every basketball game?

 

[13thman]

Why you lol’ing? You going to tell me Purdue does hellfire and chants iu sucks at every basketball game?

No. I'm saying they do it at football games too.

 

[BoilerN]

No. I'm saying they do it at football games too.

Too? I never said or denied that. I said they do not do it at basketball games. Then you referenced the Paint Crew. I’d bring football in if I realized I was wrong about basketball and the Paint Crew though.

He’s tired of fraudsense lying about about attending Purdue games, sending his “kid” there, and “writing checks” to Purdue.

 

[Courtsensetwo]

They have not done Hellfire the last few times I have been in there.

 

[Courtsensetwo]

Here is a shocker for you.

When you kid goes to college, you end up writing checks.

Dipshit.
