The 2021-22 Purdue men’s basketball season is one of the most anticipated in school history.
I don’t think that is hyperbole. I think the last time expectations were this high was 2010-11 before Robbie Hummel got hurt. Purdue is one of the favorites to win the Big Ten. It will likely be a preseason top 5 national team. The expectations of a record 25th Big Ten regular season championship and finally a trip to the Promised Land of the Final Four (hey, the Israelites had to wait 40 years and it has been 40 NCAA Tournaments since our last one, just sayin’) are not unreasonable.
