Sorry to all the UConn fansโฆ will be cheering for @BarstoolPU tonight. Idk, just something about losing to a 16 seed and coming back to win it all sounds cool ๐คทโโ๏ธ
We're ready on the north end. The old Lafayette Bank & Trust banner looks as good as ever. Dad is smiling down from heaven and routing on the Boilers!๐โฌ๏ธ
Iโve been choosing to ignore the hundreds of Zach Edey haters in my mentions over the weekend.. but this guy is so spot on about everything that I need to put it out there.
Here is a message to the people who canโt seem to appreciate greatness:
For the first time since 2019, Purdue will pack their Black Uniforms for March Madness.
If UConn and Purdue advances, they will be the 'lower seed' for the first time since Virginia.
I would expect to see Scripts and Black uniforms being loaded up.
Continue to Hunt.
Three GREAT @GettySport shots of Zach Edey's decisive late-game block on Dalton Knecht. Body control is incredible by Edey here. Arguably the defining play of his college career on a day where he scored a career-high 40 points to send Purdue to its first Final Four in 44 years.
@samueltking Sam, you've written so many great articles about so many different incredible sports happenings, we all know this story will be one of your finest yet!
"I'm really trying not to cry... but the tears are coming down. It's just been so long. I just... I cannot believe this has finally happened"
@RobbieHummel's call following Purdue's win over Tennessee to send @BoilerBall to the Final Four ๐ฅบ

Donald Trump has a private jet.
Donald Trump lives in private clubs.
Donald Trump assembled a private militia to attack the Capitol.
Now he gets his own private system of justice โ available to him alone.
NO ONE ELSE would get the special treatment he gets.
NO ONE should.
Probably the biggest data points of this Illinois vs Purdue game?
Purdue fouls: 17
Illinois fouls: 15
Purdue FT Attempts: 14
Illinois FT Attempts: 21
Purdue wins 77-71
