You might recall Purdue having an epic flameout in the 2023 NCAA Tournament. But should said flameout taint how we view the Boilermakers in 2023-2024? This team has a case for No. 1, if we're being objective. Norlander and Parrish have a blunt, honest, refreshing convo about Matt Painter's team — and what should and should not fall on Zach Edey's shoulders.

Show notes
