Holy Leal

[jopajackson]

Yelling for Carlyle over Leal all season is looking like the Freezing Cold Take of the century right now.

 

[Cavanagh]

He kicked a boiler in the nuts and helped hold an overrated Leprechaun to his worst game this year. IU needed toughness, even though can't hit two FT in a row, he brought needed grit. Give him praise .... do it. lol ...

No chance. Glad we won and hate PU.

Who was doing that?

 

[ndhuntington]

Who would have bet Leal was going to be better then Carlyle to start the season.

Carlyle is straight up broken.

 

[Bippy]

Gave it that thank god after he didn’t get tossed. I mean…. What were the refs looking at? Airball then a nut kick 🥜 . If that was anyone else for any other team half of you are casting him to hell. Don’t be a hypocrites. That was a horse shit dirty play. He isn’t a good basketball player, he relies on dirty tricks just like every player I hear you whine about.

You clearly didn't watch the replay and were about as astute as Steve Lappas was.

 

[ndhuntington]

Steve Lappas was ready to call 2 techs on Leal and eject him. I guess he hasn't see good old big ten basketball up close.

 

[Martin Groundhog1984]

Leal is the only one in red giving it his all out there on the court! The only one that cares about the name across his chest! MM/Rice/MR should not play another minute the rest of the year!

Goode also gives a shit every game and plays hard

 

[Stuffshot]

He should not be on the floor is the point. If he were good we would have not lost 8 of the last 10 (you know when he started to start). Anyone with a brain could tell you we will suck with Leal and gallo as our starting backcourt.

Leal is better than Kanaan for sure. That’s on Woody for having to play Leal. He wouldn’t sniff the floor for an SEC team.

Today, Leal = 8 pts., 5 rebs., 4 asts., 3 stls., 2 blks., 0 TOs.

Compare him to Smith today, Yet, Cavanaugh (without a sarcasm meter) says he should not be on the floor.

Back to being a video editor for Cavanaugh.

 

[Stuffshot]

Fair enough. I just don’t like guys that have to rely on being “crafty”. It’s not bball. It’s flopping and trying to dupe the system. I hate it for other big ten teams and no different for Leal. Only happens in the big ten. sec doesn’t do this shit.

Smith does "this shit." Smith jerks and flops.
So does Kaufman-Renn.

That's not why Purdue lost today.

He is the Finebaum of committers

 

[Stuffshot]

I didn’t see a foul..

Furst's arm/armpit came down on Leal's arm while 6-10 Furst was falling backwards. Leal's arms were stretched out like a crucifix while Furst pulled on him. Then, Furst kicked at Leal's ankle, trying to trip him while the ball was live and Furst's ass was on the floor out of bounds.

CBS had their head up their collective ass when they sent Lappas for this game. A battle for bragging rights in Indiana so they send an east coast guy who didn't know squadoosh about either team and couldn't keep his foot out of his mouth.

Out of 27 games, Woodson has started Leal in only 9 games and has put Leal onto the floor in only 21.

In comparison, Woodson started Carlyle in 6 games and put Carlyle on the floor in 20 games.

Tonight's game showed the importance of playing Leal and not playing Carlyle, who just isn't ready. For much of the season, Woodson seems to have misjudged Leal's value immensely.

[Mas-sa-suta]

I watched Slapshot last night. I wouldn't mind IU going all Hanson Brothers here.

That and Major League.
Best sports movies ever.

 

[rocketo]

Leal ended up having an overall pretty good game! Guess he showed you!

If you can kick a Turdue player in the nuts and get away with it, you kick him in the nuts! State law! Play on.

 

[Pryght]

It's too bad Leal's nut stomp didn't make the hype video....

 

[zeke4ahs]

Furst fouled him and then tried to trip him and Leal kicked him. Kudos to the refs for letting it go.

Exactly. Right in front of us. The refs certainly didn’t go and study the film and then say naw, let’s give IU a solid here. I don’t think Leal even knew where he was kicking, just trying to get free and run down Court.

Don’t forget the most punchable face in the Big Ten and flipper Fletcher Loyer.

 

[kurt cloverdales]

Leal didn't look back I don't think he did it on purpose. sometime a good kick in the lucys gets a team going

 

[Cavanagh]

he for sure did it on purpose..... come on

 

[NOMORENIT]

Loyer in the first half was smiling and laughing every time time the cameras panned in on him. Cocky and rubbing it in on IU's home court. Didn't see him laughing it up much in the 2nd half....

Officials got it right. They both just fell.. no foul.

For much of the season? Hell, maybe for several seasons. What would he be like if he had been given some playing time over the last five seasons?

Those three refs have officiated in 15 final 4's. Not too shabby!

 

[DANC]

He hit enough of them to help beat p u by 15...

Wow, some of these guys can't even celebrate boat racing Purdue. How sad is that?

I called him a midget today and some PU gal gave me the stink eye. lol I loved every second of it.

Loyer was the only reason Purdoodoo didn't love by 30 today.
