He_Gawn Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Oh please. Purdue does have two great players, but the rest of their team is practically MAC level talent. Johnson deserves all the credit in the world. ILL has received the cream of the crop on the recruiting the past four years, Weber has no excuse for his crappy results. McCamey is a great player, but in the losses, he disappears down the stretch in a lot of games, its not hard to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Again that simply is not based in fact. Hell just the other night he scored 14 of the final 16 points to take down the Badgers. There are certainly arguments against McCamey, but you're going with the wrong ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has to close games for ILL because no other player seems to actually want to run the offense. He is basically the entire team at times like that, a very valuable player. Who will take over that role when he leaves is a huge question mark for them next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Which is sad because of how much talent is on that team. It could even be argued that they have more than MSU and OSU. I'm starting to believe Purdue fans when they said Bruce Weber can thank Matt Painter for landing him the Illinois job, he made that SIU team go.

Both have stellar freshman classes, but OSU's appears better at the outset which is what the rankings reflected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the same crap as last year. We lose every f***in close game(yes we actually won one this year on a crazy shot by Fay) because we simply get outcoached down the stretch. Now, I didn't see much of last nights game and according to Brian, Creighton made some crazy shots in OT but like I said, it's the same f***in story. The only difference is the league is weaker.

Colorado seemed to get every bounce, but that's a totally embarrassing loss. I wouldn't be surprised if the Tigers finish the year outside the top 25.

Rowand44 Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Jan 9, 2011 -> 02:34 PM) ISU vs. SIU Go Birds! Gotta love how you can just throw a zone defense at us and we go on a 4 minute scoring drought. Chris Lowery despite being a head coach for 7 years now has apparently still never seen a zone defense, it's quite astonishing. Â Also gotta love the talent level on these two teams. Carmichael and Seck are both long, athletic very smart basketball players who could start on a lot of bcs teams while the rest of these players should be playing like division 2 somewhere. Obviously I'm exaggerating a tad but unfortunately it's not that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggsmaggs Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 (edited) Minnesota just got fouled going for a 3-pointer against Ohio State to tie the game. No call. It was a horrible play call though. But Ohio State's defender didn't get any ball, it was all wrist. Should have been a foul and Minny should have shot three to tie.
