Maybe Barry will just resign before firing Kane at this point.
Barry Odom, when asked about any possible staff/assignment changes: "I've never been one to comment a lot on that publicly. I just don't think that's appropriate. Number one, we all have to do a better job, starting with the head coach and going all the way down the flow chart."

Getting late early. His hiring of Kane, followed by refusal to move on from him, is a sign of a guy that just doesn’t have a handle on things. Feels like he’s keeping Kane as long as possible so Kane can be the scapegoat this offseason in hopes of keeping his own job.
I wanted Barry Odom to work. It’s unfair to blame Purdue’s institutional ineptitude on Barry Odom. But Barry made his bed thinking he was smarter than all of us bringing back Kevin Kane. And between that and another terrible season, he needs to go. Have to roll the dice

And as we all know, Painter success always relied entirely on having Braden 😂 what a clown
Mick Cronin on Nikola Kusturica's start with @UCLAMBB: "It's recruiting. Purdue lost at home tonight to Valpo. And Matt Painter's one of the best people and coaches in our business. But Braden Smith ain't running out of that tunnel. (Nikola) is a great player. Not a good player, a great player."

West has shown no creation ability for others so he’d have to be a BIGTIME scorer. Ertel has looked okay, and we need to see more, but doesn’t look ready to take over. Mayer is the guy who looks ready, facilitates better than the other 2 so far, and gets decent looks.
Purdue: 1. DJ/Pierce are the front court they hoped for. 2. Cox/Harris are fine players. They aren't "go to" guys 3. They lack a Go To guy at the guard spot. That player needs to be able to handle/create. Options are Mayer, West, or Ertel. Their season depends on point 3***

The only devils advocate argument is that these lines are SO terrible that they are bound to not be that bad in the future.
Mayer was 1-11 in 27 mins West was 2-10 in 23 mins. Our PGs were a combined 3-21. There’s NO reason why Ertel and Webber shouldn’t be getting more mins. NONE!

The worst part of how bad the guards are is Daniel has exceeded our wildest expectations. What a stud he is for putting up with everyone’s doubts and just killing it for Purdue through two games.
The noise for Ertel and Webber will get louder and louder. Was Ertel GREAT? No. But he busts his ass and give him 25 min a game and I bet you see some things you’ll like. Webber can shoot. Something no one else can do
