TAKEAWAYS
• Enjoy this, people, and take notice, NBA folks, because you are seeing a special player doing special things.
Caleb Swanigan is the Big Ten's leading scorer, probably college basketball's best rebounder and he's dominated back-to-back NCAA Tournament games with his passing, with a penchant for making game-winning plays lately, whether it was the blocked shots against Vermont or the superhuman offensive rebound vs. Iowa State.
Swanigan obviously stands to gain much personally from playing well in the NCAA Tournament and he's living up. But Swanigan's gain is also Purdue's, and it's got one of the best players in the country to ride from here on out and he's playing like it.
