I remember 2 years ago when we reached No. 1 for the 1st time. Was blown away. It was amazing. It was even like that when we were top 3.
Fast forward two years and it's expected now. Rankings come out & you're like "that's cool" and you move on.
That's where we are right now.

Braden Smith's 212 assists have resulted in 530 points this season.
Combined with his scoring, he has accounted for 922 of Purdue's 2,532 points.
That's having a hand in 36.4 percent of Purdue's scoring this year.

Related.... Trent Frazier of Illinois was standing near our bench and saw a play on the white board and yelled back to the bench.
Shrews said "Trent, our guys don't even know this." They both chuckled.
I remember back when Shrewsbrury was the assistant for Purdue and he would put up their play on the white board and it would say some shit like “swivel down stagger twist” and I would yell that back out confidently like we knew the play and he just looked at me and said “cmon Geo
