I know- I have Purdue friends that are upset because there's no place to go but down from where Purdue's predicted...not true; three spots in front of them!

Furthermore, that's kind of a Purdue fanbase way of thinking. Screw it...This team is well-coached, talented and will live up to its billing.

No managed expectations.

Boilermaker hoops on ESPN College Hoops homepage now. Nice article.

it's about time we got the IU Hoosiers at our place! 1 time again in 1 yr. Hmmm. Can't wait to see Purdue beat them and Duke at Mackey. I wonder if the newest Pacer J-McRoberts will be in W.Lafayette for that Duke-Purdue ACC B10 Challenge tussle. Speaking of ACC - B10 Challenge, can the B10 ever win a challenge? They betetr this year or they might stop that challenge.

This is stunning.....now that IU Football is awful, Mr. Hutchens doesn't want to give his opinion. He says, "What I need to explain to you, as the readers of this blog, is that if I'm giving you my opinions I'm not correctly doing my job as a beat writer. Beat writers write it straight. We give you the facts, and we let you draw your own conclusions. Columnists provide their opinions. And the one that we have at The Star is particularly good at doing that. Agree with him or disagree with him, but Bob Kravitz is going to have an opinion. So if you're looking for that opinion, you're coming to the wrong place if you're expecting me to offer it."

Nevermind giving his opinions about Purdue recruits being mediocre role players struggling to average double figures. I am speechless. He never ceases to amaze with his idiocy.

Purdue Matt, much like your opinion of Tiller, he can't be swayed that what he believes is what he believes; some would call his explanation an excuse, others might say he's just "keeping it real."

He is right about one thing, it's an opinion...he's entitled as are you.

Matt, thanks for the link- awesome article...there's plenty to be stoked about.

I'm sure if IU were 5-2, he would more than eager to offer his opinions about how great Bill Lynch is and how great IU football is.

In all seriousness, it's good to see that we all realize that we want the same thing! Boilerdowd, J Money, Tim & Purdue Matt - let's all join hands, on three: 1, 2, 3, BOILER UP!

I love all of you guys and your passion for Purdue is a great example to all Boilermakers... Hail Purdue!
