That game was in credible. The F do you team beat a team which was stacked with quality players including a 7.4 guy who could not be able to rebounded. FTU and it’s Coach deserve accolades!!!

FDU Head Coach figured it out in one week. Double and triple Edey forcing others to make shots.

How hard is it to teach a 2-3 zone to high major D-1 kids? Purdue was out-quicked time after time and Edy was sometimes 25 feet from the basket so his size was actually a detriment trying to guard a 6-5 guy. I’m not saying it even needs to be a staple for Painter, but the hubris to NEVER play zone seems truly unbelievable. How many layups did Purdue give up because they were outhustled? FDU had 11 offensive rebounds. I understand that Purdue shot horribly, but it seems like Painter got outcoached.

Easy to root against Purdue and for FDU.( If they were a few inches taller they would be world beaters with the heart of a lion) Back to Top giacomo General User Member Since: 11/20/2007 Post Count: 2,688 Status: Offline     RE: It's Fairleigh Ridiculous!    Posted: 3/18/2023 10:48:21 AM  Did anyone check the official’s bank accounts? Maybe Painter should be like Trump and not accept defeat. Storm NCAA headquarters.

Thinking about it and listening to different reports my take is that there is no clear-cut leader or "dawg" in the locker room. Those guys have left the building the last 2 years. Boilers were led all year by 2 freshman guards and a sophomore big. No alpha to rally them when the shots are not going. Gillis looks to be a silent leader that does his thing over the years with Ivey and others as the go-to. Maybe those froshes will develop but yesterday happened in the vacuum of leadership.

Makes you wonder. I think he's a good coach but are the natives rumbling in Lafayette?

Pretty impressive for him to answer any and all questions. https://twitter.com/Kyle__Boone/status/1637134392257568768 Full press conference https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVRlxVJ-L7Q Media served him up some softballs and did not ask things directly but he took his licks. Still one of the best in the business that builds his program and turns out really good humans.

Don't confine yourself in answering this to just basketball. Maybe no one else will see this similarity, but it struck me the first time I heard him open his mouth for an interview.

That's some pretty good incentive. The Garden is about a 20 minute from campus. Of course the scalpers will have a field day.

Twitter seems to be coming to his rescue as the Boiler followers are calling to get someone else that can win in March. https://www.boiledsports.com/posts/2023/3/19/sports-journ...
