Don’t forget Heide- he might be one of the most significant players on that roster.
And any team that has Gillis would still have Newman and Morton.

We would have room for Parker F and Xavier B it looks like.
Looking at the grid, I could see Coach Painter taking a pause on accepting commitments until other players decide to leave the program. We know that Ivey will be gone to free up DGL’s scholarship, but we really don’t know that anyone else will decide to leave early, including Edey. I know that the odds say that someone will, but I don’t think it’s a bad message to say to a recruit that we want you badly, but we don’t have a scholarship to offer at the moment.
Right, I think Edey is back next year but I doubt the following year, we’ll see.
Don't lose faith. I still feel he will be a stud for us. He has the tools and just needs them to be coached in the correct way.
The 2022-2023 breakdown is definitely interesting in the fact you have 1 senior, 5 juniors, 1 sophomore, and 6 freshmen. The grade breakdown of 1-5-1-6 is a little odd to see, but I'm sure some of the 6 freshman will RS and not count in that graduating class.
Next year, assuming Ivey is gone, it looks like we will have another opening. We had one this year and didn't hit the portal, so not sure how Painter will play that next year. It would likely be someone who only has 1 year of eligibility remaining and fill a major need (not that we have one) that Painter believes could help the team and not cause any issues.
With Colvin and DGL, it looks like we are at the limit for the '23 class, but a lot can happen before then. Maybe Edey explodes and leaves early? I have heard Painter say he is comfortable over signing as there is likely to be some attrition, but not sure if that means over sign by 1 or 2. Parker Friedrichsen and Xavier Booker would be a nice way to finish the class.
PS - Purdue currently has the #1 recruiting class in 2023 (subject to change)
this will now consume my over analytical mind for at least ALL FKING NIGHT tonight
FK off asshole LOL!!!!
A Purdue assistant coach siting at Zionsville for Logan Imes. I know Micah at PSU offered.
Not a lot of news here, but thought I’d post. Biggest thing to note is that he plans to decide in the feb-apr timeframe. Also, Purdue is farther away than any other school he is considering.
Painter has said that he wants a shooter in every class.
Hard to know if Painter would take another guard but we love us some scrappy shooters.
Surprising that Oklahoma wasn’t interested until they hired Moser. That might help us if they are playing catch up. We’ll see if we are in the top 5. CMP flew down there even though he probably knew DGL was committing. Iowa and Creighton will be right up there as favorites.
Kamari Slaughter from Portage kind of reminds me of Desmond Bane. High energy guy.
Played my home town team the other night. He is skinning and very raw wasn’t impressed, but never know. Could get a lot better.
dang... something wrong here. Painter can't recruit guards.
I think Carsen helped with this as well. We are getting a great mix of athleticism and shooters. Great time to be a Boiler!
Right, he transferred there in December. I posted it but it looks like it was in a DGL thread.
Weird. Not sure how I missed that but I appreciate you accepting blame for posting in the wrong thread.
Thanks! Interview went pretty in depth. Goes into his faith, the injury, and recruiting process. He definitely wants to be great. I liked the reason he is playing at Montverde is to grow and play against the best in basketball. He didn’t want to play against swimmers and baseball players while at McCutcheon, funny but true.
Those two are going to be something special for us.
