Rivals 150 just came out for 2023. I guess Myles should have waited to commit to Purdue, lol. He is listed at 139 and a three star.

Uh oh! And Purdue is his only high-major offer. Painter may want to reconsider...
It's good to see that there is nice talent in the state. Four in-state PGs on the list.
Jalen Hooks tumbled. It will be a recruiting battle for X Booker.
Since he and Colvin live in Indy, they very likely know each other. Hopefully that is in Purdue's favor.
More importantly, it is looking like an opportunity to join a program with a proven track record of developing big men and a ton of opportunity available, especially if Painter doesn’t take a big in 2022. Painter has been recruiting more elite outside shooters recently than he ever has, which is ideal for a talented big to get space to work.
That seems to be more talent in the program's backyard than in most years. Even if we could just land a few more of them, that would allow the recruiting trajectory to continue where it's at. The recent history of landing the biggest stars in the state works in our favor. Trying not to get too excited!
It will be just like with Carsen Edwards and Ivey. Underrated guys that you knew were going to better than their ranking
To get an idea of how reliable ratings are, especially at this early stage of the class, look at Sam Walters.
# 25 in January
"Tumbled" to # 41 in the June rating
Returned to # 26 in August
Ratings are all good fun for the fans, including me, but they don't determine anything.

Instead of ratings with Colvin, I am just hoping he does not go for the money he has been offered and signs with us.
I believe he already declined that offer.
Thats a prettt big jump though, he went from a 2 star not ranked at all, to a 3 star 139th. Junior rankings dont mean much. We will see what kind of number he puts up this winter and where he falls.
Painter has a pretty good track record when he lands his top guys and it seems that Colvin falls in that category.
Yeah I made a list awhile ago, and basically all his “plan A” guys were stars
Would you mind reposting if you still have it? I'd be curious to see it.
Looking at the roster now, most of the guys that I think of as 1A priorities are the young guys. Jaden, Morton, TKR, Furst. He was certainly high on Newman so maybe he lands in that group? He was happy to land Tre, EH and Gillis, but I'm not sure they were 1A guys. Sasha was a late offer, IT was a legacy, I think MB was sold on Zach as soon as he saw him play but I'm not sure he'd even reclassified yet when MP was after Dick and Kalk.
Hunter Dickinson, but you’re right, it could be two Dicks and a Kalk
"Plan A" guys - a historical view
I think it's clear, with the early commitments of the 2022 class and the high rankings of the 2021 class, that the last four players who have verballed to Purdue have been "Plan A" guys. I wanted to look back and see how common this is, so here's a list of previous year recruiting classes and...

It’s pretty subjective, but an interesting concept to me.
Trevion was definitely a Plan A guy. He was recruited early and Painter stayed on him after his injury.
Its an interesting discussion on plan-A guys. I hope folks on here realize that many of the plan-A guys Painter has won were also Plan-A guys for some very good coaches who don't coach at Purdue.
Thanks for sharing, interesting and well done. Agree that by it's nature is pretty subjective, a couple of thoughts below:"Plan A" guys - a historical view

Edey - pretty unique in that I don't believe that he was even in the class until we missed out on the two other guys and we did beat out Baylor for him, but agree that he was not a Plan A guys
Gillis - I'd definitely upgrade him to a Plan B. Agree that he was a lower priority than Hall but he committed way before we lost out on Malik, it wasn't an either / or situation
Tre Williams - not sure whether I agree that Tre was necessarily a Priority A guy after he got hurt but Okoro became a possibility well after Tre had signed
Carsen - signed before Simpson committed to Michigan. Not sure that we would have landed Simpson anyway but it was an open offer to both, whoever commits first, situation
Ummm . what good coaches are there that don't coach at BoilerUP U?
Anybody know if Purdue is on the radar for any of the three Chicago kids on that list?
believe we just offered Davius Loury who had a pretty big summer.
Dre Gibbs Lawhorn is the only one that rings a bell right now. -
Pretty sure his ranking drop had to do with him being injured most this year. Also odd it lists him at Mccutcheon since I thought he went out to Utah for prep school.
EDIT
* Think we have been watching Jalen Hooks but don't think we have offered. Xavier Booker has an offer yet not sure if he is that interested.
I do not want to start yet another thread about how a team must have so many stars behind the players name to win, as that has been beaten into the ground in the past. But please understand that even with 5 or 6 5 star players on a team, unless some are willing to play the role the team needs them to play they will not be successful.
Yep, you've started more threads, than there are stars in the sky, & under nearly as many aliases. Mind if we call you by one of your other 12 aliases (& counting) IUhaterade/BBG/BoilerAndy, ect., ect...? Why not start one under Methboy? No, try Eve, or ThreeFacesOfEve? Try 12FacesOfEve. Do you actually think you're fooling anyone? Only yourself Eve.
Did you see the nice, white jacket BBG got you? It has extra long sleeves that tie in the back.
Enjoy

I'll bet they don't know each other like you & IUhaterade do. Say hi to BBG, gd4now, methboy & the rest of the gang.
Yikes, 12, & counting
Not Fooled
Looks like Booker just picked up an offer from Michigan State.
Just because they both play in Indy has little to no baring on them knowing each other . I will bet the farm none of those doing the rankings have ever seen Colvin play ( no shoes company ). Booker only exploded on the seen when he played for a Nike team ( Indy Heat ) . Braden Smith is one of the best players in the 2022 class but since he play's for Grand Park few have seen him play so few stars . And even when they see you they don't see you . Fletcher Loyer was first team all peach Jam ( Nike ) . Yet Rivals has him as 3 star and isn't ranked in most polls . If Painter offers you then you belong in every ones top 100 . Purdue is a top 25 team basically every year under Painter he doesn't need some guy setting in his parents basement to evaluate players for him and neither do I .
Dravyn is been recruited hard by Oregon but I still have him as a Purdue lean . And yes he is still in Utah .
