Yup, he's in that class of mine. One of the good guys. Dude just praised us for 6 minutes straight in that video, and it wasn't coachspeak. U can tell when it is and when it isn't. Good guy for sure, much like Pike. And if we end up upsetting them, he's one of a few who will go out of his way to credit us in his postgame presser.

Coach Painter is my favorite opposing coach. He was even nice enough to catch Ron Harper Jrs. headband after the buzzer beater.

He’s a fantastic coach. This league has several of them. I love this league.

Referring to RU or maybe to RU and MD, he said, unsolicited, “They’ve been good for our league”.

Agreed with the above posts that he's my favorite opposing coach. He puts together good teams, doesn't whine on the sidelines and is a genuinely good guy/sport.

I’ve come to appreciate Holtmann and Gard too. However, Painter 100% cream of the crop

He's the anti McCaffery. Can't stand Fran that crying mofo.

Good interview. Not just coach speak

Purdue remains one of more favorite programs to root for in basketball and football ….

Painter draws praise from RU fan base... and deserves it!

Certainly, a coach Purdue fans and the B1G can be proud of.

I agree. On one hand, you have a hoops dude like Matt Painter, a HOF coach if he keeps going.

And the there are the threads where Iowa, Indiana or Maryland (not you, connifer) fans are being dumbass fans throwing major shade our way.

Watch that Matt Painter interview, and tell me who has wayyy more hoops chops.

That was fantastic, like chatting with friends.
So many coaches are condescending or obviously don't want to be there, have better things to do, he's like a regular guy. Love it.

Painter/underwood are great

I saw you on the Purdue site chatting it up with their fans. I'm watching you. 😁
