My first 1st-author publication is now out on the regionality and seasonality of tornado trends in the United States. Adding to the array of literature on understanding the role of internal climate variability and anthropogenic forcing on tornado activity.

It’s February, Purdue is 22-1, and the last 3 games might be the best they’ve played all season. Purdue is capable of winning the national championship. Doesn’t mean they will, but the point is, Boiler Nation, keep enjoying this ride. This team is special this season 💛

Bill Walton just said: “Purdue loses to Indiana and nothing happens. Arizona loses to Stanford and they fall off the 1-line. Something is wrong with that.”
Bill… losing to Stanford is a lot worse than losing a rivalry at assembly hall to a ranked team.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but Friday night’s game between # 1 Purdue and # 9 Illinois will be the first all top-10 game at Mackey Arena since January 1st, 2010 when # 4 Purdue beat # 6 West Virginia 77-62. Should hopefully be as good of an atmosphere as a break game can get

Purdue and Illinois run B10 basketball until proven otherwise.
Combining for 6 of the 8 B10 titles the last 4 seasons.
* Illinois probably should’ve had a hand in the 2021 regular season title
* Purdue very easily could’ve had a hand in the 2022 regular season title

(1/4) I’ve been a diehard Purdue fan for all of 6 years so I’m not going to pretend that I know every emotion that people felt about the final four clincher. But what I do know is how close and connected the entire Purdue community is, and how much passion and pride that…

Ideal Purdue plan for next 7 days:
1. Purdue beats Ohio state (magic # = 2)
2. Iowa beats NW (magic # = 1)
3. MSU beats Indiana at Breslin
4. Illinois beats NW at SFC (Purdue clinches share)
5. Purdue beats IU at Mackey (Purdue clinches outright)
All 5 could happen

Uconn losing a road game to a good team has no effect on the rest of the year. But after all the crap Purdue took for being ranked # 1, seeing Uconn lose before Purdue feels good. Purdue’s first loss will probably come soon too.

Former Purdue head coach Gene Keady said that to win at least a share of the big ten championship, you need to do the following to go 15-5:
A) win all your home games
B) split your road games
C) lose a home game, steal a road game.
Purdue will be hard to beat at Mackey

Minus the 2019 elite eight, the sweet sixteen has been one of the most difficult rounds for Purdue to advance out of over the years.
All hands on deck against an improved Gonzaga team from the one Purdue played in Maui. Purdue is better too though.

Tier 1: Purdue, Indiana, Michigan State

Seen some talk on Purdue’s “light” big ten schedule benefitting their route to the title. This goes the other way too. Last year’s team went 14-6 and missed a share by 1 game. They had ILL x2, WIS x2, RUT x2, IU x2, MU x 2, IOWA x2, and went to Breslin.

This adds context to the Lance Jones transfer that I didn’t know before. Knowing how Purdue handled the situation and how much they cared, it makes me so proud to be a Boilermaker. 💛
Matt Painter was looking to add a player who could provide the following:
▶️ Ballhandling
▶️ Quickness
▶️ Defense
Enter Lance Jones (

Whenever Purdue goes on the road, the opposing student section will almost always have some sort of reference to one of 2 phrases:
- “Purdont”
- “Boiler down”
It’s a part of college sports, I don’t get why Texas is bothered by it this much.
Texas routinely letting Horns Down bother it like an immature middle schooler is always laugh out loud funny

14-1, easily look like the best team in a (down) B10

Losing Ivey, Stefanovic, Williams, Hunter yet they didn’t miss a beat and may be better than last year.

(1/3) # 1 Purdue at Assembly Hall today, which has never happened before. In many ways, it’s just another game. Purdue could lose and still be # 1 arguably. A win and Purdue comes one step closer to sealing # 1 overall in March. But of course, it’s IU vs Purdue
