Purdue’s guards body language said it all after that shot. It was over right there. They were shook. If you see the replay. There was no reaction from Rutgers on the previous play. Said ok. Let’s go.

I’ll eat my words and I’m happy to. I was hard on Spencer a couple weeks ago. He is good, really good and we need to get him more shot attempts. ONIONS
he did have some poor shooting games early on, and it was disappointing at that point

Saw that too. Maturity vs kids. It’s why coaches love portal guys. The ones they fit your program are so valuable with the experience they have.

As one coach described it, they are men not boys.

He’s better than his brother and his brother got some NBA run and is in the D league or whatever it’s called.

Not bad for kids that went to a school with about 40 kids per class

So many so called board experts saying Cam wasn't a B1G player. Only played well against the cupcakes bla bla
I was critical of Cam because he hadnt proven it as this level. Solid vs cupcakes but struggled in his first 4 games vs real competition. Glad to see my criticisms proven wrong because the last 3 real games Cam has elevated his game and proven himself to be a necessary cog on the team.

That shot was onions from him

He was hitting his shots tonight - hopefully this is a benchmark game for him where he sees he can play with the big boys/big lights and will have more confidence moving forward.
He could always play with the big boys. He missed shots short on the front rim against Temple , Miami and Seton Hall. He makes just 1 more 3 in any of those 3 games , we win those games. Tonight hit a big 3 at 40-38 with a late feed from Paul and then the veteran he is , he didn’t panic , got defender Ethan Morton a top defender , to bite on head fake , dribbles left and then drills the game winner. Cool as a cucumber . He is a winner.

also before there is revisionist history, after Dereks play vs Indiana many said that Cam should lose his starting job and its Derek that needs to take his minutes. This wasnt a small group. Just saying. People were going off of Cam vs cupcakes and Cam vs real teams and seeing a difference. He had a lot to prove and he certainly now has proven himself vs OSU, Wake, Purdue

It was so obvious he could ball. He just needed experience at the B1G level.

This won’t be the last big shot he hits. By the end of the season he’s going to be deadly.

The TKR jinx strikes again. Same as the board practically running McConnell out of town early last season.
