yesterday was #1 Purdue vs #15 Texas Tech. Purdue won by 30 points against a very good opponent. The one guy who I wanted the Bruins to get in the transfer portal (don't know if they offered him) was a big 6'11, 255 lb center from North Dakota. Oscar Cluff played 22 minutes and had 15 points and 15 rebounds for Purdue. He would have been a great addition to the Bruins but Purdue snatched him up. In 6 games he is averaging 12 points and 11 rebounds a game. With him in their front line, Purdue looks even better than last year. Their soph backup center, Daniel Jacobsen, is 7'4, 250 lbs and also had 11 points and 8 rebounds in 17 minutes. Between Renn, Kluff and Jacobsen last night, they had a combined 38 points and 30 rebounds.
With their excellent guards and those big front line guys, Purdue is going to be a very difficult match up for the Bruins.
