Penn State coach: Purdue basketball has 'best team, best player, best coach'

The Boilermakers are comfortable in front in the race for a Big Ten title after demolishing Penn State Wednesday.

WEST LAFAYETTE − Penn State coach Micah Shrewsberry was asked to provide an opening statement.

Penn State coach Micah Shrewsberry on Purdue,"Best team in the country. Best player in the country. Best coach in the country."Shrewsberry knows this Purdue program better than most, and certainly more than any opposing Big Ten coach. Mason Gillis, who scorched Penn State for 29 points with a Mackey Arena record nine 3-pointers Wednesday, never lets his teammates forget.

Dudes, as Shrewsberry called them, who can seemingly fill every facet that makes an offense successful. Choose your gimmicked up Edey defense and Purdue can torch you from the outside. And when you think you've figured that out − Shrewsberry wanted to limit shots for Fletcher Loyer, Braden Smith and Edey and they took eight, nine and nine, respectively − you get a Gillis situation where you leave a player open and he makes 9 of 12 from beyond the arc.
