2026 Recruit…

With all due respect respect, why would you worry ?

Please remind me what Garry flippin’ Harris amounted to when compared to Etwaan, Jaden, or Braden???

No disagreement that Izzos “recruiting” is pretty much looking at who CMP likes, then trying to poach them….

I’m comfortable that the combination of Painter’s honesty and Purdue’s demonstrated success clearly shows where top-shelf Indiana high school talent needs to be…

Because, I hate losing in-state recruits that we seem to have a leg up with (parents were Purdue alums) and then turn around and lose them to Izzo...Harris, Dawson, JJ jr, etc....makes me cringe.

Gary Harris was 3-0 against us and I believe all were double digit wins and avg 18 a game. Gary Harris was flat out good...come on.

I absolutely love the way CMP runs this program, but he knows that type of talent is a game changer or he wouldn't have recruited him.

WoW! My brethren. I had no idea. We are so close. I, like davie had my first and only @54. HS class of’29. Trying to groom a football prospect. I lived on Maxwell bend until recently. On the corner of Byc Bridge Rd and 1275W. Now in Lafayette much less yard work.

My brother and father got a load of lumber in Lafayette and took Bicycle Bridge rd home. They found out the hard way why you need to tightly secure your load going up that hill.

Thank you. Just something that happens to a lot of us. Other than reduced sleep, fatigue, losing muscle which in some cases is turning to fat, and no temperature regulation I feel fine. ;) Hopefully, in March the effects wear off and next fall we find out if the radiation was at least an early success. Compared to many I am fortunate...

Don't waste your time arguing with him. It's this "systemic racism" gibberish. Racism is in your DNA. You can't do anything about it. You ARE a racist. Period.

I know…everything ties into racism. I wish I knew why his world is the way it is, but I’m no clinical psychiatrist. He can’t be internally happy with his outlook and yet if he didn’t hold his victim views he might be an easy visit,,. 😔

So, you are fine with white folks hiring or giving answers to family members or friends that they want to hire regardless of qualifications?

I have no idea how you jumped to that conclusion on anything I wrote...none whatsoever. I have no idea about giving answers to family members and what that entails? I don't know what you are saying...you lost me.

I once thought of retiring there. Wife could be close to her brothers since 4 of them live there, and I could be close to Purdue and some old friends and family. When I looked at all of the steps to climb for every trip and reevaluated living so close to her family, the plan was scrapped.

And now a word from our sponsor …

Fellas. Are you troubled with the heartbreak of … Tecumseh’s Bend? Feeling bound up, bloated and strained to drain? Slow on the flow? Limited to floods of good wishes? Well, thanks to our friends downstream at Eli Lilly, now you can be as straight as an arrow with the new and improved Tenskwatawa. No more wigwams. Be the tallest teepee in your village. A true tawa of powa. Just ask the Luv Guv himself, William Hairy Harrison. “Yeah, baby! Tippecandoo and tighter, too.” And Tenskwatawa comes fully guaranteed. From the makers of Prophet’s Rock, your money back if unsatisfied, because, as true pioneers on drugs, we may not be non-for-Prophet, but we’re proud of our charitable mission. We’re Indiana-givers.

And this is your announcer, Tony Randall, also known as Felix Unger, signing off as a new father at age 77. And again at 78. Woo-Woo-woo-woo. Woo-Woo-woo-woo.

Now back to our regularly scheduled program …

The whites were split on obama...some even voted for him not because they thought he was the best person, but because he was black. That said, there is reason to believe that some will find racism where others do not and in some cases it will be true. Now, another form of racism like DEI does not make the situation better. I think the world of Thomas Sowell and he is black. I like his thinking. You do not. It is not that he is black that we both hold opinions it is that we hold opinions on his thought, who he is and what he has done. That is exactly what MLK wanted to be judged...NOT by the color of the skin. If you want to stop racism...resurrecting in on another side will not end it.

Agree. I don't think there are any must get recruits. But after the Big 3 leave.....even after all that winning, I don't think anyone here will be tired of winning (unlike the losers to the South).

Thus, hope he comes here, and brings us another B10 championship. You know CMP doesn't land too many top rated players, but EVERY TIME he does, there comes another championship. 23? Now? Who knows it's a bunch. So many I lose count....so probably wrong.

Winning,with CMP.....It's like a guarantee.

This kid is legit…put up 40 earlier this year.

Comes from a great bball family. Two sisters on purudes team, parents coach the girls team at south bend Washington. Apparently, his sister who is currently in HS (going to Purdue next year) just put up a quintuple double:

14 points, 18 rebounds, 12 assists, 11 steals and 10 blocks.

And she didn’t play much second half.

They only reviewed it for a flagrant 1, but apparently tackling a guy doesn't meet the criteria. What's worse, is the announcers agreed with the no call.
Click to expand...
They have to be careful not to denigrate a call or they won't be covering some games. Last thing the refs want is criticism of their calls on TV...and the game itself doesn't want an image of poor refs doing the game. You can disagree, but have to choose your words carefully or they will be censored. Can you imagine a game where the announcers get over the edge criticizing the refs on TV and so they just need to choose their words carefully or NOT disagree which is the easiest. That said, it was a pathetic no call, but had it been called when he has his arms wrapped around a second earlier...no three ball made I'm thinking. Had they got the F1 due to a late foul called, that would have been huge for Minny

Dude, the country was racist before, during and after Obama. Obama and his family were depicted by some folks on the right as monkeys. Kept up the birther BS. Just to name a few.

Good lord. “Had a bad game plan”. What are they on? We missed a ton of shots we usually hit and they hit some they don’t and they weee only up 8. Osobor was 4/17 from 3 and I’d still let him shoot wide open. There weee a couple times where he was wide open and we had a guy turn (cox) and start to run at him to cover the ball (what’s he supposed to do) and then realize, “ah scouting report says this guy is NOT a good shooter” and he basically ran away from him to allow him to shoot 😂

I’m sure Osobor will go 4/30 rest of season and paint will allow him to shoot it again if we run into them somehow.

What crazy is we shot so bad from 3 but still beat them and just dominated second half with out hitting 3s. It helps Washington is bad, but their floor also sucks.

I actually agree with their take on having a bad game plan in the first half. We were clearly caught off guard with their crazy hard hedge and it killed our rhythm without a counter in the first half.
