I feel that was the past and I don't really feel that way anymore.He's currently the #2 rated recruit in the country. He will have everyone after him including Duke, UK, Kansas, UNC, ect. We don't win those battles.

Based on?I feel that was the past and I don't really feel that way anymore.
Getting to the Elite 8 and recruits have taken notice. Furst will have or has everyone after him and we are right there. We shall see but I'm optimistic and think we can with our recent success plus player development.Based on?
We've landed Morton and Ivey since that elite 8. They are both really good players, and I'm pumped to have them on board, but it isn't like we were facing Duke, UK, Kansas, or UNC in their recruitment. I'm talking about our chance of actually landing a top 5 player that isn't an in-state player (Chet).Getting to the Elite 8 and recruits have taken notice.

I do believe they are priorities for the 2021 class. But Painter doesn't appear to be finished with the 2020 class. We are regularly surprised to learn about offers to players who weren't on the early lists. For me, that's part of the fun of the recruiting process.It's fine to continue to talking to him and visiting him. Furst and Kaufman should be the priorities, however. We stand a way better chance with those two. Painter knows what he's doing, though.
I don't believe we've given CMP enough credit for his recruiting as of late. I still think we will start to land that top 30 kid more than our past has shown.I do believe they are priorities for the 2021 class. But Painter doesn't appear to be finished with the 2020 class.

I will take any of these guys. Painter is going to land a top 5 player one these days though.If all of the major schools get put on probation and can't compete for the next few years, then sure, we can land him.
All of our focus should be on Kaufman and Furst (and it is).
Do you think we will get Dickinson, Kalkbrenner, or someone else in 2020?If all of the major schools get put on probation and can't compete for the next few years, then sure, we can land him.

Painter has done an excellent job finding the players that fit together and has the culture back to where it needs to be. He’s getting results out of the guys he’s getting. Swanigan I believe is the only top 50 guy he has gotten since the Baby Boilers and has won 2 out of last 3 Big Ten Championships and was second the time they didn’t win. Not to mention that great run to the elite eight that was agonizingly close to a final four . Swanigan was only on one of those 3 teams. He has proven in spectacular fashion that you can get it done without 5 stars. Guys like Mathias, PJ, Eifert, Cline, are just winners. And I always go back to Carsen Edwards. The guy was ranked around 90 and made a huge impact on team and nationally. You just knew from the start that he was vastly underrated. Other than Zion Williamson he was the most exciting player in college and Painter didn’t hold him back. He had the greenest of lights.I don't believe we've given CMP enough credit for his recruiting as of late. I still think we will start to land that top 30 kid more than our past has shown.
I think we get Dickinson. There is doubt that he will take his UNC visit. It's being said he will decide relatively soon after this weekend which is a visit to Florida State. Kalkbrenner seems to be leaning Creighton. If we get neither, we should bank the scholarship for 2021.Do you think we will get Dickinson, Kalkbrenner, or someone else in 2020?
There is always a first for everything. I am hoping for Dickinson, would be great to beat out UNC for a recruit and we are due for one.
Just my opinion, I say we land Chet in 2021. There is always a first time for everything, just like the NCAA Tournament National Title Purdue in going to win in downtown Indianapolis in 2021. Boiler Up!
Trevion would be a senior while Chet would be a Freshmen. Blue chip recruits do not need to start as freshmen even if they intend to be one and done (will one and done still be a thing then?). There have been multiple examples of players that are drafted in the first round and even lottery picks that did not start on their own college team.Where does Trevion play?
Where does kalk/Dickinson play in your scenario? Top 5 recruits don't come off the bench. They definitely don't come off the bench at a non blue blood school.Trevion would be a senior while Chet would be a Freshmen.

I think Chet could also play the three position. That makes for a broader equation.Trevion would be a senior while Chet would be a Freshmen.

Yep, but I would not bet on him as a Boiler. We have never landed an out of state top 5 recruit.
Thanks for the Dickinson update. That would be really great to get a verbal from him sometime next week! Boiler Up!I think we get Dickinson. There is doubt that he will take his UNC visit. It's being said he will decide relatively soon after this weekend which is a visit to Florida State. Kalkbrenner seems to be leaning Creighton. If we get neither, we should bank the scholarship for 2021.
Just my opinion, I say Chet ends up at one of Duke, UK, or UNC.
As of right now, assuming we have 2 scholarships to give in 2021, who would you say Purdue gets today?? I just saw they offered a top 35 shooting guard 6’6’’ from the Atlanta area but his name escapes me.I think we get Dickinson. There is doubt that he will take his UNC visit.

Matthew Cleveland is his name......I think we get Dickinson. There is doubt that he will take his UNC visit.

A ton can change in a year, but I would guess we get Furst and Goode.As of right now, assuming we have 2 scholarships to give in 2021, who would you say Purdue gets today?? I just saw they offered a top 35 shooting guard 6’6’’ from the Atlanta area but his name escapes me.

He visits O$U this weekend and Gonzaga in early October. I think Zags may surprise here.
Furst is at Virginia this weekend I think?
But I would be Goode with that class.
True.Yep, but I would not bet on him as a Boiler. We have never landed an out of state top 5 recruit.
Why is there any need to prioritize those 3 players? Does Purdue have the funds to only go contact, watch or meet with one player? C'mon, Painter can walk, chew gum and breathe at the same time.It's fine to continue to talking to him and visiting him. Furst and Kaufman should be the priorities, however. We stand a way better chance with those two. Painter knows what he's doing, though.
Kalkbrenner is leaning towards Creighton? Really? I hope you're wrong. Not that I would mind getting Dickinson, but I get the feeling he would be heading to the NBA sooner than we would like.I think we get Dickinson. There is doubt that he will take his UNC visit.

The closest may have been Luther Clay (ugh). Next would probably be Mike Robinson.Yep, but I would not bet on him as a Boiler. We have never landed an out of state top 5 recruit.

Mike Robinson is my favorite Boiler of all time. Dude could get offensive rebounds in bunches for a guy only 6’6’’ at most. He was the main reason we beat eventual national champion Michigan St. in Mackey in February of 2000.The closest may have been Luther Clay (ugh). Next would probably be Mike Robinson.
Actually, Robinson was around the # 10 ranking area after high school, whereas Clay, if I recall, was in the 20's. Both were McDonalds A.A.'sThe closest may have been Luther Clay (ugh). Next would probably be Mike Robinson.
Other then Glenn has Purdue ever landed another top 5 recruit?Yep, but I would not bet on him as a Boiler. We have never landed an out of state top 5 recruit.
I think mike Robinson was a burger boy. Glenn was the 1 or 2 PF player depending on which service you used. Outside of position I was thinking he was between 5 and 7 but I dont really remember. It might actually have been 1 or 2 in the country as wellActually, Robinson was around the # 10 ranking area after high school, whereas Clay, if I recall, was in the 20's. Both were McDonalds A.A.'s
Mount by all indications without actual star ratings. Not sure how else to rate the cover of SIOther then Glenn has Purdue ever landed another top 5 recruit?
Rick Mount and I believe Troy Lewis.Other then Glenn has Purdue ever landed another top 5 recruit?
