@ess_fish@B1GMBBall@TheAndyKatz Purdue fan here. No shot. The “field” this past season was the best we have ever seen. The 2024 boilers are the best team Painter has had, however, they would do worse than they did in 2024 if dropped in last years season. Drop them in Robbie Hummel’s era though and watch out
@TheFieldOf68 Huge range of possible outcomes. Could be a 10 seed in the tourney. Could get as high as 4 seed. There will be large ups and downs as nearly everyone is n a different role than a year ago. Watch out for Ertel. And Webber is lethal if he can play good enough defense to be on court
@jbhofmann@tsnmike@itsAntWright For sure, however Edey had a fairly rough surrounding cast. Incredible he carried us to a 1 seed. MJs final year they lost 2nd round of the tournament. 1 game better. Although MJ had Perkins (top 5 pick) beside him. As well as, Daughtery (he went 1st), and Kenny Smith (6th pick)
@tsnmike@itsAntWright He’s NBA goat, I know. But it would be very easy to argue Edeys college career was better than MJs. I’m sure first argument is that he has a title. That came when he was probably their 3rd best player. 2 other TOP 5 draft picks on the team. Compare their final 2 seasons, Edey>MJ
@itsAntWright The path is so tough for them. Arizona, Michigan, and whoever wins other side of bracket. That’s the issue for my boilers. Just the way it shook out
@itsAntWright They are unreal. I’m a Purdue fan. Thought our team two years ago was extremely good. And they were. This Michigan team appears to be quite a bit better.
@CollegeHoopsTIk He might be. Boiler fan here. Name a better career than his… also, as it looks, going to be a pretty underwhelming upperclassman years resume. I’m on your side btw…
@COYGillini@CollegeHoopsTIk You should have named Edey. If I wanted to look up all those guys careers we could argue. But not worth my time. Was hoping to hear from creator of the post. But you did the work for him
