Izzo was a complete embarrassment in their 1st rd game.   Screaming at the refs and breaking things on a correct call despite being up 10pts.   I can't understand why he never gets a technical foul but Saddi gets T'd up for saying something to one of his own players.

Hilarious!

The reigning B1G regular season and tournament champs could potentially return almost everyone on the roster.

But hey, let's have a good laugh at them.

Purdue capitalized on Edey, B1G officiating that rewards inside play, and a weak conference to win the B1G. 

UM was in second place with 1.5 weeks left - that tells you how bad the league was this year. UM collapsed in 7 games and lost 6 games by one possession with almost no basketball IQ. Absolutely should have beat IU twice, Virginia, Illinois and Iowa. Even one of those and certainly two of those would’ve put UM in the tourney.

UM had no reason to be in the tourney. Talented and able to string together stretches, but no ability to close out games and play smart when it mattered.

Feel for guys that lose to a 16. If it was a Duke, OSU or other team I despise perhaps I’d have fun with it but what would anyone have against Purdue unless I’m missing something.

Commuter schools in New Jersey, man....

Well, Princeton is not a commuter school, but they are about to beat Mizzou.

So, schools in New Jersey generally apparently, at least in the early going.

I mean the Purdue loss is rather amusing, but I sense quite a bit of Mich fan copium trying to equate being the B1G champ/#1 NCAA seed losing to a 16 in the dance, with the absolute sack of vomit the Flying Juwans were this year...I'd 100% trade Purdue's season over Mich's TWill ridden diaper fire of a season.

I rooted for Purdue for one simple reason. Matt Painter is a decent human being in a profession riddled with the Rick Pitinos of this world.
