I'm not saying they play a similar style. I don't think he is saying that either. I think both of us are saying that both teams have the ability to beat the same teams and both teams have the ability to lose to the same teams. Basically these teams are evenly matched.
2020 Recruiting

- Start date
I never insinuated they played a similar style of basketball. They are almost complete opposites.
Like I said, the effort level wasnt where it needed to be from IU against Nebraska. That's correctable.
That’s cool I was just going by this statement you made earlier...
“The point of this entire discussion was that IU and Purdue have very similar teams this year”.
When I saw that I assumed the obvious. In this case the obvious was wrong.
Similar teams from a potential perspective. I should have said evenly matched like Iron said.That’s cool I was just going by this statement you made earlier...

Still no 2020 recruiting news, eh?

Yeah this went downhill fast.......
Kerwin Walton 6'5 2/3 from 2020 is on official visit. Know nothing about him other than he his a borderline 4 star. Plays on same HS team as Nnaji. In this video he looks like a shooter. Similar player to Newman with a slower release and maybe a little less explosive. Can't have enough length and scoring though. Should be a great environment to make an impression.
Painter was watching Kiyron Powell from Evansville. Another guy who is 6’8” with offers from X, G’town, K-St
You are right. It has changed into that a long time ago.
Also, the 'weave' scares away quality athletes and quality PG's.
That kid should be a five star player. I watched the video and he never missed a shot.
We have Mason Gillis as well, and he'll be a 4. In fact my gut says he's going to be a good one. Let's not forget Gillis.
I expect Gillis to red shirt next year. He may need the time to heal his knee, then get back into playing shape. I do expect him to be a good player, but on the 2020-2021 team.
For God's sake, LET IT GO!!
No chance In hell Brooks come here. UK is making a big play for him now.
The post you are responding to is over a month old (Jan 15th).
FYI .. Newman had 49 against Valpo. He is going to be a stud for us.
Intersquad scrimmage?....
Ha yep.. my bad... wrong team. That is what I get for rushing!Intersquad scrimmage?....
And I'm not even going to change it. I stand tall with all my imperfections!
PU Boiler I love your optimism I bet your glass is always running over.It makes no difference if I agree with your post because they always brighten my day and make every day mushroom season.
Brooks is heading farther south than Bloomington these days.....Hint - Blueteam on otherside of the RIver. Even cancelled his MSU visit...lol!
I thought his camp was all about state allegiance...…….smh
Don't let the door hit ya...…..
I can understand this choice because that's where all the NBA wannabes go. I think he is probably making a mistake in that the coaching and experience, as well as the publicity are better for him at other places. If Painter thinks he is a two and done, if so, he will likely be over recruited and ride the bench with the blue & white boys.
Too bad. Think how he would look as a big man on campus at Purdue. He would get many more opportunities to shine, and get good developmental coaching. I still think Calipari takes very talented kids and throws them on the court, while they wait a year to join the pros. He does do much development of individual skills from what little I've observed. Don't quote how many pros he has put in the NBA. Most of those players could have gone directly to the league without any college. UK was just a quick stop off.
I was in the arena for the VT game and it was a home crowd for PU. The first half was an NCAA tourney game atmosphere. 75-25% PU fans.
Are you taking bets yet on a split?
Can you blame him from reevaluating heading to B’town? And like Romeo, I don’t think he wants to work that hard becoming a “team” player for CMP.....Sadly, for his sake.
No I can't blame him, but since PU was never in the picture...….and Kentucky is...…….he is dead to me now. And as you said, "team" players are what PU is looking for, and doing quite well with. Good luck kid.
It's cool he's doing the announcement at his grade school. You know who else graduated from there? Ricky Hall. Hmmm, maybe bring Ricky back for the surprise Boiler announcement? Fun to dream but I agree with others that he's UK bound.
No. He has been on campus for unofficial visits and games but never an official.
We just don’t have the glitz and glamour like other schools winning conference titles....
That would be cool if that happened with Hall. Looking back, that was a small back court of Hall and Steve Reid but they led the team to a Big 10 Championship in 84. Hope we get another one 35 years later. There was an Eifert on that team too.
This is 2019, but I saw Sherfield will be at Minnesota for a visit when we play them. I know he indicated was planning a visit to Purdue at some point.
I would have taken you for a Milwaukee Light/Pabst kind of drinker.
And if the Porthole were still in business, a frequenter of that fine dining establishment.
Only will if Carsen is going to leave... Maybe Carsen is staying if he doesn't plan a visit
The Porthole closed long before I was 21 haha. On Thanksgiving Eve, I do go to The Elks or Sned's, though.I would have taken you for a Milwaukee Light/Pabst kind of drinker.
On February 9th, Tyler Beard (PG) and DJ Steward (CG) visited. They are both top 100 (according to 247) guards out of Illinois. They recently played against each other in a sectional game. @Boiler_ray said he was there and said Beard didn’t do much, but Steward lead his team to a W with somewhere in the 20 point range.

Neither one has an offer yet as far as I know, but they are definitely worth watching.

one would think eventually UK and MSU would run out of scholarships to offer to the people we're targeting/recruiting. one would also think they are slumming if they can't recruit their usual top 25 ranked 5* players anymore. What's happened to UK ?
