Episode 462 — Purdue’s Matt Painter

Purdue’s Matt Painter has raised expectations for the program over the years but where do the Boilermakers go from here? They’re coming off their first Final Four appearance since 1980 but are without Zach Edey. Find out why coach loves this year’s team! Can Trey Kaufman-Renn become the offensive focal point? Which other returnees make the biggest jump? Why it’s all about having skill and size. Why coach will be watching the Big Ten conference with fresh eyes. And what are the biggest keys to again being in the mix for a Big Ten regular season title? Plus, is the preseason in college basketball too long?
