Purdue basketball coach Matt Painter is stopping practice to yell at his team. He knows he has what’s on the floor at McKay Arena, as the Boilermakers begin the 2021-22 college basketball season, which could extend to April. He has final four talent. He has the last four depth. He has the best team, on paper, he’s ever had at Purdue—and he’s had some good 16 seasons, including 12 NCAA Tournament appearances, four trips to the Sweet 16, and an Elite eight.
