    Our scholarship grid

    Ok, let’s play devil’s advocate ! You say nobody will leave because they all love it here and they will stay no matter how few minutes they receive! But the facts don’t support your debate! Painter gives people a survey and only selects the right people who want to stay. Then why did...

    Our scholarship grid

    I’m going to be negative And say 2-3 of our incoming freshmen will transfer after this year. I believe Catchings will only be at Purdue for 1 year. If he’s a star, he’ll leave for the NBA. If he’s not a star, he’ll leave to go to a school that will promise he will be their star. I also...

    Interior Defense is a concern without Zach

    I never said I was an expert or in the know. And I did do research! I said Edey played on Canada’s team before 2021 and he did. It was in 2020. I said Painter saw a lot of international talent as part of being an assistant on many USA teams and he did! I doubt seriously you want me to...

    First about walkons. Furst’s brother was a walkon. King was a walkon. Two other guys were walkons. Didn’t Painter sign two more walkons for next year? How many walkons do we actually need? The answer is probably 0. But Painter brings them in anyway. As for Smith, how many games...

    Interior Defense is a concern without Zach

    I found several sources that said he was part of the 2020 Canadian Olympic team But that he didn’t make their Final Cut to actually play in the games.

    Interior Defense is a concern without Zach

    Ok, Zach, was a member of the 2020 Canadian Olympic team, but didn’t play. And Zach was a member of the 2021 FIBA team. And Painter has been an assistant coach for various U.S. teams. Zach went to the academy to develop his skills although he didn’t start.

    Is this how Purdue athletes attend classes too?

    I once took a ms word course at a jr college just for fun. It was actually a 3 credit class. The entire Oklahoma baseball team was in that class. They attended every class and all did their own work. Although at a jr college or just a d2 or d3 college, they said the course credits would...

    T. J. Sheffield decommits from MSU.

    So what’s he been doing last semester and this semester? Attending any classes? Any spring practices?

    Interior Defense is a concern without Zach

    There were a lot of posts on this board about Haarms and his playing days in Europe! That info came from somewhere. I belive Painter saw Haarms play before he went to that prep school. Haarms came to Purdue in mid semester because there were a bunch of issues over his eligibility.

    Interior Defense is a concern without Zach

    I found his performance from 2021. Where he dominated. I’m looking for 2019. It was said in 2021 Edey’s only othe offers were from Baylor and Santa Clara. I found it. Before his 2021 FIBA performance, Edey was selected to be part of Canada’s 2020 Olympic team, although he didn’t make the...

    Interior Defense is a concern without Zach

    Once he came to Purdue, Edey dominated one of this international tournaments. But the USA won the event so mvp went to a USA player! I remember the Purdue fans here saying Edey was robbed and a lot more deserving

    People here keep talking about smith needing a backup. The guy would play all 40 minutes every game if painter would let him. Smith doesn’t need a backup at pg

    Interior Defense is a concern without Zach

    The tournament was right before he went to the academy or during it. Edey played in another international tournament after coming to Purdue and dominated. He played for team Canada last summer and didnt do much. He played for team Canada in another tournament and didn’t do much. On the...

    Interior Defense is a concern without Zach

    Edey didn’t start or play very much but he was on their team and Painter was one of our coaches who had an opportunity to see him play

    It doesn’t really limit me. Burgess and Jacobson were rated just as high as Harris, Heide and Myles were. I think it would be awesome if Jacobson claims the starting center position and TKR starts at the 4, catchings starts at the three and Myles and Harris battle with Loyer to start at the...

    Interior Defense is a concern without Zach

    I recall my comments. Yes I wanted Dickinson. I also like the twin towers Michigan used. What is not being said is how good Dickinson could have been if he played at Purdue for 4 years. If Edey didn’t come to Purdue, what would have been his destination? Would Edey have been player of the...

    Cleansing of souls

    Lance was a lot better fit than anyone could have predicted. It’s ironic that Domask was actually the player Painter was trying to sign. Domask was going to fill the 3 spot. Lance was known for being a great defender who liked to shoot the three a lot. He wasn’t known to be a great pg, but...

    Does Loyer start for next year's team?

    I see Loyer starting out the season as the starter but I also see 5 players wanting that spot and being very capable in that spot. I see so much talent on this team that I only see smith as a surety. Tkr could play the 5 or 4. Catchings could play the 4 or 3. Heide could play the 4 or 3...

    Is this how Purdue athletes attend classes too?

    A lot depends on how much the player wants to play in the pros and how much the player just wants to use his athletic scholarship to pay for his degree. However, you are seeing more universities offering more self paced , online classes.
