Parks in the paint? He is really good at getting out before the 3 second call. Perhaps actually watch a Purdue game and pay attention to that fact. You're showing more and more that you don't know WTF you're talking about.
Well hello butthurt my old friend…..
I shake my head a lot these days.
There's just so much in the world that leaves me apoplectic.
Like a Purdue b-ball fan coming to an IU board to chirp.
I don't mean to harsh on my friends' and familys' PU buzzes, but there isn't a more cursed program in the NCAAs. It's funny that you seem oblivious to what we all witnessed last March, for like the umpteenth time.
I concede PU has the better program now and has for many years. But you need to concede some things too, or else you become a PU troll on an IU bball board.
And nobody needs that, most of all YOU.
smh
Perhaps looking up what "paint" refers to and what the associated rules are and try again.
By "paint" I don't mean what you and your HS buddies huffed
Hope this helps
I haven't posted on your board in over eight years.
You
IU wins, Run to IU board
IU loses Run to IU board
PUke wins Run to IU board
FIFY. Archie was an enormous disappointment and the greatest thing to ever happen to PU/Matt Painter.
I know exactly what that is and what the rules are. Either you don't, or you don't watch Edey and just repeat stupid arguments. OR both.
Uh, so maybe you're suggesting that Edey stretches the defense occasionally by going out to the three-point line like fellow seven-footer Kevin Durant to threaten his deadly three pointer?
I don't think Edey's calculated forced-march just a half-shoe-size outside the foul lane disproves the fact that he parks in the paint.
I find it perplexing that parking in the paint is seen as a negative today. Perhaps I am just too old school. Years ago Isaiah was responding to criticism of Shaq. "All he does is dunk" people said. Isaiah said, "what's wrong with that?"
He is a Purdue grad. He doesn’t understand the rules let alone how to properly apply them.
Summary of Puke basketball knowledge:
Him throw ball at basket
Ball go in basket
Yay
IU Sucks!
IU Sucks!
IU Sucks!
Yeah, ones an Antique that people relate to, "the good old days", the other is now and playing on a national stage! Remember when winning was the thing!
PU shits the bed against mid-majors in historical fashion on the national stage. I'll give you November. I can write "November National Champions" with a Sharpie on a used Helms' donut bag for a banner.
I thought IU showed some toughness last night - not sure what’s up with Galloway - he looks lost but Reneau was impressive as was Gunn with 4 steals. Not sure Maryland and Michigan are that good but we shall see. Really looking forward to the two games this season - Edey looks unstoppable. I’m sure the fan base is thinking big right now even though it looks like half of them wanted to fire the head coach before the last two games. Long season.
Disagree completely with that - you are living in the past
I don’t care if we’ve lost to the 16 seed 5 years in a row IU is not the better program right now at this point in time. You can talk a lot of crap on here but that’s not gonna fly
IU fires coaches with Painter results: see Crean. No sane person could say that IU would keep a coach with no Final Fours after 20 years, let alone a coach that loses to double digit seeds 3 years in a row in years 18-20: that wouldn't fly at IU.
Nice try but 80 percent of IU fans would agree with me - you can talk all the smack you want about Painter but let’s look at who is gonna have the NPOY 2 years in a row and let’s look at next years recruiting classes
We have the #8 class coming in right now and you have #67 - I would think the superior program would dominate recruiting but I’ve seen a bunch of guys not commit who your superior program thought was getting. So if we are talking right now - his statement is completely false
At least half of the PU fans I have encountered want a different coach. Edey wasn't good enough to get drafted: he has no NBA future. For 2024, IU has the #13 recruit committed and is about to get the #15 recruit. Ware and Mgbako were top 10 recruits. What are you talking about?
NBA future has no bearing on the discussion and “about to” is just that. Same with Harper and the last few guys who bailed. Ware is a great transfer pick up but he’s one and done - Mgbako doesn’t really impress me for a 5 star. So let’s look at next years recruiting rankings, let’s look at the last 10 years wins vs losses, let’s look at whatever you want but no way in hell is IU the better program at this point in time. If you think it is you are looking through some crazy IU colored glasses
Team vs Program.
PU has been the better team of late.
PU isn't a shadow of the program IU still is.
Are you forgetting to log out and back in with a different username when you respond to yourself? I have seen some of you guys have this problem before.
One college program is rated in the top 5, the other is collecting dust! One is adding trophies the other has to dust off the old ones!
Keep thinking that - I think that’s the problem actually - you believe the IU program now is what it used to be. Simply not true.
I have one username only thanks
@Courtsensetwo No, the notion of someone "parking in the paint" is to suggest that they don't get called for a 3 second violation. You know, the paint. The area that is inside the lane below the free throw line.
Is this your trophy after FDU? Congratulations?
The fact that your players were swaggin' B10 champ rings at Media Day was almost as sad as a Helms Banner.
Everyone can park in the paint, so it's not a skill to brag about. But Edey can't do what other seven footers can do, like Kevin Durant, who can handle the ball, create his own shot and shoot three pointers.
Since you brought up Shaq, I recall Shaq with LSU grabbing a rebound and dribbling the length of the floor for a layup. And that was in college before the NBA made Shaq even better. Edey is better than he used to be, but he does not gave the skill and mobility of other seven-footers even at the college level.
At 7-4, Edey is definitely effective at the college level because at that level he, well, parks in the paint and hopes a guard can get the ball to him.
Purdue and IU do not play in the NBA, one year wonders do they really work?
