Purdue is making me happy


Purdue has likely learned their lessons, and will be prepared to contend with whomever they are paired against in the first round.They have the talent to make a deep run, thanks to their big men in the middle, and their guard play is significantly better than it was last year. Joe Lunardi has Purdue as a 5 seed right now, though their #16 ranking, and their big road win tonight suggests to me that they will be sneaking up a seed line or two before all is said and done.
This is a good year, I'm very happy with this team, and I have expectations for a Sweet 16 run -- at the very least. Now, all that said, on Indiana night, it's hard to imagine any sweeter feeling than winning over the Hoosiers in Assembly Hall.
Caleb Swanigan is a beast, Isaac Haas is figuring out how to use his strength, and the guards and forwards are confident enough that even Vince Edwards, the best player on the team his freshman year, is now a 6th man.
This is a fun team. This is a team that will make noise in March. This is a team that beat Indiana.I'm so happy.
