Setbacks Boiling Over in West Lafayette: Entering this season, Purdue figured to have a decent backcourt as new coach Matt Painter attempted to have a successful first season following the retirement of legendary Gene Keady. Now the backcourt is a huge problem for the Boilermakers, thanks to injuries and suspensions. The latest setback occurred when senior guard David Teague went down for the season with a torn ACL. Teague was the Boilermakers’ deadliest long-range shooter last season, hitting the fourth most three-pointers in the Big Ten. In addition to Teague, Purdue will be missing point guards Tarrance Crump and Korey Spates, who are suspended. Crump’s suspension is more serious, but Spates could be back sooner rather than later. Either way, Purdue figures to have a challenging season ahead.

-Jay Wright, NCAA Championship Men’s Basketball Coach, Villanova University
"At a time in America when we are witnessing an epidemic of opioid addictions and deaths, along with suicides, we need Coach Jarvis' Seven C's of Leadership – grounded in the power of Christ alone where we should all make our stand.”
-Lietenant Colonel Allen B. West (U.S. Army, Retired), Bronze Star recipient, and Member 112th U.S. Congress
