Purdue big man Zach Edey couldn’t contain the excitement over the Boilermakers’ first trip to the Final Four since 1980 after they defeated Tennessee, 72-66.
Zach Edey and the Purdue Boilermakers proved that last season’s debacle was behind them as they advanced to the Final Four and he wore his emotions on his sleeves.

Amid the celebration of this feat, Purdue guard Lance Jones went live to show the players at center court and it also featured Zach Edey who picked that time to state that he had an erection.
