Be awesome to see JJ win the championship he so deserved in his first year on the team.

I share the same frustration.

I watched ESPNU’s coverage of the combine in Chicago and they spent about 30 seconds talking about JJ and I couldn’t find them talking about E`Twaun at all even though both of them were at the NBA draft combine.

Hopefully the guys who actually make decisions that matter will do the right thing tonight and bring these guys on board. Stupid talking heads…. grumblegrumble

for what it's worth,

he had two pick 6’s last season as a freshman. Purdue’s record for CAREER pick 6’s is 3, by none other than mr. woodson himself. so Ricardo’s got a pretty good reason to be confident in his abilities. he’s got 3 years to get two more and become Purdue’s new all-time leader ahead of one of the greatest defensive players we’ve ever had.

No true posistion. Isnt the greatest ball handler, and hes not tall enough to be a real two. Hes also lacking the athletic ability of most NBA guards.
