It has been an interesting few days to be a Purdue basketball fan. Last week we let a game at Florida State get away. It was a costly loss not because the Seminoles are a bad team, but because it would have been a huge chip in our favor come March. We then got blown out at Michigan, who is probably playing the best basketball in the nation right now. Yes, we have three losses, but they are to teams currently in the top 15, all away from home, and two on the opponents’ home floor. This is all with a team replacing four long-time starters and with our All-American struggling with turnovers and his shot.
