Purdue won its scrimmage tonight. That was expected. The Boilers won 85-63 over Southern Indiana in a game that went about as expected. Casey will have a more foprmal update later, but Isaac Haas had 25 points and Caleb Swanigan had 16. Purdue was playing with only 7 scholarship players, however.
One, we knew about early. Basil Smotherman is serving a three-competition suspension from an incident over the summer, so he missed this one and he will miss the secret scrimmage against West Virginia and the season opener against McNeese State. Jacquil Taylor missed tonight as a precaution after rolling his ankle.
