Purdue’s Matt Painter on moving forward from Final Four run
Purdue men’s basketball coach Matt Painter discussed various potential lineups, keeping an edge after success and more at Big Ten Media Day.
WEST LAFAYETTE – Purdue men’s basketball’s 2024-25 slate of TV assignments will include a late-night tipoff on the west coast, a prime time visit from UCLA and at least seven appearances on CBS or Fox.
Boilermaker fans will again need to familiarize themselves with streaming services Big Ten Plus (at least three games) and Peacock (at least six games.). The Oct. 26 charity exhibition at Creighton will be brodcast on Nebraska Public Media in that state and available to stream for $10 at GoChreighton.com.
Some notable games do not yet have time and TV assignments, including a road game at Marquette on Nov. 19 and a technically neutral-site game against Auburn in Birmingham, Ala., on Dec. 21.
