We have been here before. Can Purdue finally deliver when high expectations are placed upon it?
We all cannot wait until November 13th, 2015. That is when a new and highly anticipated Purdue basketball season will tip-off. Unfortunately, we have all been here before. The 1988, 1994, 1996, 1998, 2000, 2010, and 2011 were all supposed to be THE year at one time during those respective seasons. For a program where simply making the NCAA Tournament is a minimum expectation (more on this later) we long for that Final Four and national recognition.
I have seen Big Ten championships from Purdue in 1987, 1988, 1994, 1995, 1996, and 2010.
