2023-24 Scholarships

Just wondering if Purdue has any scholarships open for next season?
I think they have one more left. The Twitter account just posted the roster is set for next year, so not sure if we should read too much into that or if it was just celebrating Zach.

Id personally like to see another PG or combo guard that can handle the ball for insurance, even if it is a low major grad transfer that won't play much. Hard to find someone to sit the bench on a team, but if you are top 5 program next year maybe there will be some takers and you don't have to waste the spot.

Maybe you just hold one until the last minute with the outside chance an Octeus situation falls in your lap too....

Yes, injuries or regression of players....or too many that shoot 25% .... an very experienced extra body would be nice to be available.

It appears Painter is recruiting 3 players for 1 and maybe 2 spots if someone leaves.
 
Who are you referring to?
It appears painter is recruiting both Harris and Perry. And has commitments from catchings and Burgess. And then there is that other big center who is probably going elsewhere but we are still hoping will come to Purdue . And we keep talking about other possibilities. It seems like Purdue is recruiting a lot more players than we have scholarships to give. To land all these players, it appears we won’t be able sign them unless someone is encouraged to leave
