2022 Recruiting

You're right. Maybe it's time for some introspection.....Maybe I should be happy with every player who commits to Purdue, regardless of anything else.
If Painter doesn't land Washington or a stud guard to go with the Loyer, Smith class, I have not problem considering it mediocre. I know you and the stroke club will consider it a "Great" recruiting class (which is fine. You can call it great all you want despite where it ends up being ranked).
I was in love with this girl....
What was her name?
I don't remember
What did she look like?
She had hair, eyes, maybe a nose....
Are you sure it was love?
Totally...
I wish that I had Jessie's girl.
Where can I find a woman like that?
Where can I find a woman like that?
Lol reminds me of Anchorman.
What was her name?
I can’t remember.
That’s not a good start but keeping going.
We made out in a Kmart for hours.
i've never called it anything, let alone "great".
And, my point remains, which you unartfully dodged.
There’s plenty of posters who give the moniker of “great” to a bunch of our recruits and players. Greatness comes cheaply these days.
What you don't seem to understand is that the transfer market will essentially make high school recruiting somewhat irrelevant. Don't get me wrong, we need to recruit good high school players. But why stress over whether one class is "mediocre" in your words, when a couple of transfers at a later date could change everything.
Interesting you say that as I was thinking with the transfer rules a team with a solid roster can afford to take some chances on high school recruits. If they don't work out, they'll just transfer out and we can bring in transfers to replace them. Seems silly to stress about it.
Baylor had a ton of transfers that weren't contributing to the recruiting rankings. Same isn't true for Purdue.
If Baylor had added those players in their recruiting classes would it have moved them to Top 25, which was the stated criteria for success? I don't think so.
18 Sure would have they added Macio Teague and Mitchel to a the 36th ranked class.
??? Neither of those guys were in that recruiting class that was ranked #36. They didn't even graduate in the same year and were already at their school when that class was signed.
BTW, MaCio Teague wasn't even ranked. If you replace one of Baylor's ranked recruits with him, the class ranking would have dropped.
And they were not ranked at a level that would have put Baylor in the Top 25 recruiting class. It's amazing how people use hindsight to try to prove a point.
I totally agree as it would be great to be able to scout a player playing against P5 level competition and have a pretty good idea of what you're getting if he transferred to your program.
I think the water's going to get really muddy in terms of who and how coaches are able to communicate with players who might be considering entering the portal but haven't. I assume that's against the rules?
The two transfers that played the most for Baylor were unranked out of high school. I'm not sure what your point is?
Not against the rules for a guy like Matta to text an AAU or HS coach that he knows to see if Johnny is happy at State U...
That's what I mean. I'm sure coaches are using alternative ways to communicate with players to find out if they're considering a transfer, etc.
I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of players communicate about the same thing.
I hope we have a “college player personnel” guy who is scouting full time.
I still think this year's number of transfers is an aberration. The free Covid year gives a lot of guys an extra year they wouldn't have otherwise had. This is the first year of transfers with instant eligibility so more jumped than would likely be normal. Remember at this time instant eligibility is only a once in a career so you better be sure the move you make is one you want to live with.
Important enough for you to respond, and to avoid the clear question.
It's stated, above.
If you refuse to answer, just say so.
I don't really care that much to search for it. So, if you want me to answer, ask it again.
Anybody have an update on 2022 recruiting?
Looks like a Purdue visit in June but can’t read the article
If one of the schools is indeed Purdue, it appears that Painter is not done recruiting guards for that class.
