You are right, we equally suck when Purdue joined you at the bottom. I've stated that from the beginning. The difference is we occasionally visit you there, and in the mean time you remain there keeping it warm for anybody who may occasionally visit.
Our point is that what reason do you have that to optimistic that you are going to get out of the bottom any time soon? Just because you have occasionally done it doesn't mean its going to happen again in the near future. Tiller's years at Purdue are an aberration just like Mallory's for IU.
