Purdue Basketball Beat #36: Big Ten Peaks and Valleys

Purdue Basketball Beat #36: Big Ten Peaks and Valleys

At the midpoint of Big Ten play, our Purdue Boilermakers sit at 7-3 and await the toughest stretch of the season. Michael, Andy, and Aneesh talk about our relative happiness levels with the season so far, Iowa and Butler exploiting Purdue's weaknesses, frustrations with Matt Painter's substitution patterns, possible changes to the starting lineup, gushings over AJ Hammons, and how many wins we see left in the Boilers' tough month of February (with particular emphasis on the Maryland and Michigan State matchups).

All that, plus a pretty in-depth discussion about whether the 2016-2017 Purdue team could be more successful than the 2015-2016 team, despite having less overall talent.
