Go fighting Tees!

Swanigan is really polished in the paint for a PF. He's a beast. Reynolds is a beast too. Purdue seems to always have a couple of huge skilled big guys. Both Swanigan and Haas are nice.

Villa is good, but they go 63, 63, 66, 66, 69. Very small team, but very good. Would be great to see SU match up with them

True. Tell that to UNC though. Tonight they made it difficult for Haas until recently. They swarm and front the post relentlessly, You need to have really good post players to really do damage. I don't think Coleman and Chukwu can hurt them. Haas and Swanigan are awesome.

Last year Purdue had 7 footer AJ Hammons along with Haas and Swanigan. Talk about a front line.

Ochefu was 6 11 250. Hass and swanigan tough for them. But they still came up with great win on road

Yup! If they get better guards then those guys would be near unstoppable. They will be really solid all year, imo.

True re: Ochefu although I think he fouled out late 2H of that title game. Lack of size just doesn't bother those guys. Impressive.

These days it doesn't appear to be news, it would be news if Uconn was winning.

Watching the replay now. Wow. The crowd is awesome. What a game!
First thing I see is a kid name Spike hit a three and they start talking about Michigan vs Loisville championship that should have been ours!!!!
Anyway, yeh, Swanigan is a beast. Nova being helped by some cheap foul calls on the Purdue bigs but otherwise a very exciting back and forth game with great intensity. College basketball baby!
