There are bound to be a few hiccups along the way, but coordinating schedules for 18 schools in numerous sports from coast to coast was a tremendous challenge for the Big Ten. At least in Year 1 of the new conference, which has added UCLA, Southern California, Oregon, and Washington, the scheduling puzzle has come together, and we’ll see how it plays out. From Purdue’s standpoint, the expanded Big Ten has increased the athletic department’s travel budget for the 2024-25 school year, adding “less than $500,000 in new expenses,” athletic director Mike Bobinski told GoldandBlack.com. It’s been ne...

The 2024 NBA Draft begins tonight, with the first round, the draft’s first 30 picks. It might be the most unpredictable draft in years, which is also a polite way of saying a particularly lackluster field with little near-certain starpower. One veritable certainty at this point: Purdue’s Zach Edey will achieve his goal of being a first-round pick and getting the guaranteed contract and presumably the early playing opportunities that come with it. Where he’ll be picked, there’s no consensus, but there are a few franchises from Pick 7 on that might make sense. A look at some of those who’d add u...
