It's the time of year. March Madness! Circled on the calendar for many as a highlight of the Sports calendar (so robbed in 2020 for the pandemic) but this year it's in full swing. One of the short list favorites to crash the Final Four in Glendale are the top seeded Purdue Boilermakers. Led by senior Zach Edey who dominates on both sides of the floor. Through the first weekend, Edey showed why he will make Purdue a tough if not impossible out. In two textbook wins, national scoring title holder Edey scored 26.5 PPG and 17.5 RPG. In limited minutes of blowouts over outclassed Grambling State and Utah State (averaged 29 minutes). That's a point per minute and three rebounds every 5 minutes of play (rounded). The Canadian hit 19-28 from the field with 12 offensive boards and 23 defensive wipes. Throw in 5 assists, 2 steals, and 6 blocks and he was a one-man wrecking crew. Purdue is looking for their first basketball title after two Final Four appearances and this may be the year thanks to the Longhorndave Sportsman of the Week!
