Purdue is a Final Four team in 2024. It’s the first time the Boilermakers have made the Final Four since the 1979-80 season, when the Boilermakers lost to UCLA 67-62.
Back then, Purdue was coached by Lee Rose. In 1980, Purdue went 23-10 in the regular season and enjoyed a deep run in the tournament before losing to UCLA in the national semifinals.
This year, the 2024 Final Four location is set for Phoenix.
