His story of not getting the credit due reminds me a lot of Jeremy Lin's story. I imagine his racial identity played a role in him not being seen in the light he deserves. Implicit bias is a powerful thing
In the interview today, after reaching this year's final four, he said, "He was overlooked by so many universities. "... sounds familiar to asians right??! Overlooked by your looks!!😀
Purdue fan here.. but will always say Gail Goestenkors is the best women's coach never to win a title. Just got real unlucky to run into two buzzsaws in Purdue and later Maryland.
Outcoached, outplayed, overrated. The truly hilarious thing about this loss was the fact that OSU was favored by 19 points and got absolutely DESTROYED. 😆😆😆
These girls were national Champions and damn good. Had to play against them in pick 'co rec'. Love to see Figgs, Douglas and then 'McCarty. My step daughter went to coach Pecks summer camp prior to year they won "Purdue's" ONLY title at Purdue. Not enough respect as the lack of comments and views. Basketball fans should be ashamed especially those so called Indiana Basketball. You go GIRLS!!
Zach you are one of my favorite Purdue players all time. It's a shame you have a shitty coach. I would love for him to stay but Fainter leaves nothing to come back for. If he develops a mid range jumper he will be very good in the pros.
I mean look at the Purdue team ! They stay in their bubble all conference season long with this false sense of achievement then ….. Every year Cant miss Someone has to review their corrupt ranking Btw : I’m a boilermaker Chensey hill 08 From west Africa 🦅
The sad thing is had those Purdue players taken their SAT’s after high school some could have gotten into Indiana University and if they dropped their choke mentality could have sat on Indiana’s bench for the games.
I hope your mother knows how much your experience at Purdue means. You have one more year to go. Hang in there one more year. Enjoy it while you can. It all goes by fast and the money will still be there after next year.
@JohnGlavin, I love seeing your videos. Do you happen to have the 1992 Indiana at Purdue basketball game? I haven't been able to track this down and it would be awesome to see this game again. Thank you!
Most of the older stuff I have posted has come from old VHS tapes, and unfortunately I don't have access to any more of them. BTN however provides "Classics" - older games condensed to a one hour format. Hopefully that game will be done by the network - anything Purdue-related is automatically recorded by my Hulu account, and I edit out commercials and post frequently. Glad you're enjoying - BTFU!
Our family of Boilermakers is so grateful for you! You're awesome! Thanks for being a boiler and for sharing yourself and skill with us!! We love you!! Boiler Up!!!
It's a great year to be an UBER Driver at Purdue University in part to Zack and the rest of the #1 college basketball team in AMERICA !! BOILER UP !! HAMMER DOWN !!
Big men in basketball like him are very very rare. “Mountain of a man “ how many times have we heard that? But obviously he’s more that just having a big body :he can shoot move use his left hand has great vision of the court so he can pass very good.The guys I can remember this tall could not do these things that well .Ming would be the exception.Maybe.
@@JohnGlavin Because he keeps destroying Michigan State 😂. He’s unstoppable. Hope he has a great NBA career. I think the only thing he needs is more attitude.
Listening to him talk I think he’s the kind of player who wants to keep improving and collect a couple of national player of the year awards before making that move?
