Marquette vs Purdue

Did the team spend any time practicing offense? Shooting? Free throws? Out of bounds plays? Following through on rim shots? Following up shots for rebounds and put ins!

Would like to see Clark and Phillips each get a real run tomorrow.  Purdue plays some younger bench guys who dont do much other than eat some minutes, good opportunity to matchup Phillips and Clark on them for a few minutes and see how they handle the environment.

I don't think Painter will let us lose by 30.    He will have respect.

Simply overmatched in this one.  This is a buy game for Purdue.  Crazy how far and fast MU has fallen from a year ago. This game will be a stark reminder of that. Will be looking for glimmers of hope, keeping an eye on NJ, AS, RP and maybe MP and JC.  Hopefully not a plus 40 point loss.  Painter likely to classy for that.

This season is about development and then retaining the players who look like high major players after the season. 

That is a good way to spin it. This season is about development. Why isn't it about victory? Some of us saw this coming a year ago and then we're criticized immensely for expressing those concerns. Now those critic shrinking violets are hiding in their basement.
Sad state for MU basketball, and the only fix is consistent winning. That is not in sight.

When the other teams get to shop at the farmers market and cherry pick their produce, versus Marquette that grows their own and cultivates and has a poor crop, no surprises.
