Saw 20 minutes. It was men vs boys. We better be ready for that team. They are big in a way we aren't. Really physical, the two freshman have crazy positional size. The Landrew kid is like Stokes-light. Their backup 5 that they picked off from Stanford played really well, big euro kid, solid. They were elite defensively. Their on-ball, switches and rotations were really good, were flying all over the place. They didn't shoot it great, believe it was Mullins first game back. It's a different brand of basketball than we play. Theirs is high intensity, highly physical with elite defense and on ball actions. They are deep too.

we really really really need to make some shots against them this time. there cutting will be a tough cover and may be hard for the freshman to pick up. but our veterans now have 2 games against that movement so hopefully they learned. but the shots must fall.... otherwise same result.

Hurley is so very unlikeable but don't be surprised if he wins another one this year.

We'll see. They are better than paper suggests, that I could tell you. Hurley has a tendency to find guys that aren't top 5 HS kids that work in his system and
I don't know how the Landrew kid wasn't a higher recruit, had never heard of him. He's a truck. Their other freshman, County, is a big, athletic guard that defends his face off. Their 5 reminds me of a bigger Julius Peppers.

They beat msu by six who lost to marquette. Purdue shot 2 for 25 from three. They are not unbeatable.
