2009-10 Big Ten basketball

FU@k, Fu@k, FU@K!!!!!

Robbie Hummel blew out his knee at the Barn tonight--so much for my hopes of a glorious postseason for Purdue.

Unbelievable character shown by the guys to pull out a win tonight, but the future is bleak.

I can only hope against reality that Robbie's knee is not as bad as that grotesque wrenching appeared on TV

Sorry- I want the BigTen to do well in the dance.

Quite the outburst there Purdue.

may I borrow your luger, Leroy? I'll be heading down to the bunker with Eva now.......



(just kidding, but unrealized potential flat-out blows)

Tough break. Quasi-Purdue fan since MO State's coach came from there.

We at Purdue sure are blessed--between Cuonzo Martin and Drew Brees, one could not create better representatives of what your university should stand for....

(the legacies of folks like John Wooden, Neil Armstong, and Amelia Earhart don't hurt, either )

Thanks -- this is helping temper the disappointing sting I've felt ever since watching Hummel crumple to the floor last night.

ESPN reporting Hummell out with a torn ACL. Ouch.

Tough break for the kid, and for Purdue. Wish him the best in his recovery.

Terrible news. Really a shame to have this season end this way for him. The team has that kind of feel, where they are going to pull each and every game out.

Yep...Purdue's rotation was perfect until the injury...Grant and Jackson were providing wonderfully seamless support for Kramer and Barlow, and Hummel's smarts and versatility lightened the burden on both Johnson in the paint and Moore on the perimeter....

Purdue was PRIMED for a good NCAA run; now they'll forever be saddled (amongst all the other NCAA hoops near-misses) with the "what if" tag.

Sole ownership of the Big Ten regular-season title would be a decent consolation prize, but who knows where they will find the depth and scoring to make even that happen now.....

FAAAAAAAACK

See, Bruce Weber is a damn genius for passing on Hummell.

Did he want to go there or something? I mean, I know the story is that he chose Cole over Hummel, but do we know Hummel wanted UI?

I'm pretty sure E'twaun goes to Champaign if IDKWTI didn't commit there. He (like many) didn't want to play with him, for some reason.

Why the heck does IDKWTI take me to Eric Gordon's wiki page w/o telling me why?
