This is called "lack of self awareness".

That feels like an r/thepast [2024] post.

Dude had his Cignetti schtick all planned and ready to go. Probably went so hard in his head as he was writing it.

Is he trying to knock Indiana's schedule because he doesn't consider it "championship worthy?" That's the only thing I can think.

Some guys just aren’t ready for a live mic. Cutting a promo is easy until it isn’t

All the new coaches and apparently ADs are trying to have their moment now, it’s so cringe

I have no clue how this dude keeps failing up. From not good enough for La Tech to a P4 in 5 years is crazy work.

I was gonna say, this is chuckle-worthy if said years ago and was now being brought to light.

But it was just made now? Recently? Like with Indiana as the reigning champion?

Wtf?

Purdue has won three national championships:

1961 Men's Golf
1999 Women's Basketball
2010 Women's Golf

Surprised by the women's bb championship. If you had asked me how many Purdue had won, I would have guessed zero. They have had some good moments in volleyball and men's and women's basketball, but didn't think they had won it all.

In 2020 Tommy said that LA Tech would never consider moving to the Sun Belt, because it was lower in standards according to him, and schools like UL-Lafayette should be looking to C-USA when he was AD at Tech.

6 years later LA Tech joined the Sun Belt and C-USA was a sinking ship last year and now he makes this comment.

When Cignetti beats them by 50+ again this year that comment is going to look even worse than it does today. What are you doing dude?

That was actually a great team coached by Carolyn Peck. After that, she was the next "it" women's coach, so she went to the WNBA, but sucked. Then she went to Florida and sucked. That's why she's been at ESPN forever.

Cignetti gonna drop 100 on Purdue this year. Indiana gonna repeat, and all the OSU fans and SEC fans will whine incessantly.

Did the campus tour leave out showing him the football trophy case? It's so empty he could fit into it.
