Here's a non-iu, 2025 Purdue recruiting-related post. This guy is a teammate of CJ Cox, has Purdue interest, is fielding B1G level offers, and really looks like he can ball. Not sure what he's rated but painter doesn't give a shit, so neither do I.
Woody seems more like a “hang around the basketball offices and take naps while letting his assistants do the recruiting” guy to me.I think people assume that Woody is a national recruiting guy, but there’s four of them out 12 on the roster now: Galloway, Leal, Gunn, and Sparks.
All grew up IU fans and locally. Cupps fits the local and scrappy take too, though he’s just over the Ohio line.
Here is his 247 profile. Not sure the validity of his Purdue interest, but only showing mid major and Minnesota offers.Woody seems more like a “hang around the basketball offices and take naps while letting his assistants do the recruiting” guy to me.
Minnesota is mid major right? LAMOHere is his 247 profile. Not sure the validity of his Purdue interest, but only showing mid major and Minnesota offers.
Well then he’s getting buy-in from some really effective assistants.Woody seems more like a “hang around the basketball offices and take naps while letting his assistants do the recruiting” guy to me.

Ok, I’ll see myself out.

Going forward, I think that Shrews might be the coach that is competing for the same players as Painter the most often.
Agree and curious how he does with pulling in East Coast kids that have the draw to ND name/brand. I feel like Brey just didn't have that impact with local kids.Happy for Shrews, but he is going to be a major pain for Purdue/MSU/UMich for a long time imo
Interesting you didn’t mention IU…Happy for Shrews, but he is going to be a major pain for Purdue/MSU/UMich for a long time imo
in state talent “isn’t that good” and they recruit “nationally” now. They offer everyone in the top 50…bound to land some of them right?Interesting you didn’t mention IU…
He retweeted this back in september, so might be some mutual interest there.
More clips...
Mullins was in Iowa City last week and liked it.Both talented, I think I pick Loer, possibly better vertical, passer, maybe more aggressive. Hard to judge the competition they’re playing. I think Mullins is gonna be a Hoosier in my gut. There’s a lot of competition for them to beat out in the 2025 class…
just by the videos, I'm taking Loer, easily looks to be a little quicker, more athletic, similar shooter, and not afraid of taking it thru traffic and making them
Agree with the above - but NewPal's intent was to troll me (he's convinced I'm an IU fan because I have the audacity to critique our March performances). Not sure what to say at this point, but this obsession of his dates back more than 2 years at this point iirc (he's complained to the mods multiple times about me).in state talent “isn’t that good” and they recruit “nationally” now.

The first time Brey got local rep was when he went to that bar after he got canned. He was a great guy on a personal level, but just not the right fit for this current generation of players.Agree and curious how he does with pulling in East Coast kids that have the draw to ND name/brand.

Not knowing him or what is the right fit for this current generation, would you please take two minutes and explain it for us slower guys? 😊The first time Brey got local rep was when he went to that bar after he got canned. He was a great guy on a personal level, but just not the right fit for this current generation of players.
Shrews is a totally different story, I think, and I could see him being there for the rest of his career with the conference re-alignment picture being what it is.
What bar? I mean South Bend has 2 that ND kids go to and they both suck.The first time Brey got local rep was when he went to that bar after he got canned. He was a great guy on a personal level, but just not the right fit for this current generation of players.

quarterbacker and another on a corner???What bar? I mean South Bend has 2 that ND kids go to and they both suck.
Would that be the "Cornerbacker?"quarterbacker and another on a corner???
Linebacker and Corbys. Those are the 2 that I would consider ND bars.quarterbacker and another on a corner???
is it linebacker just south of the football field? Is Corbys a bit farther away and maybe on a corner or so. I know my daughter had mentioned a couple beforeLinebacker and Corbys. Those are the 2 that I would consider ND bars.
You got it.is it linebacker just south of the football field? Is Corbys a bit farther away and maybe on a corner or so. I know my daughter had mentioned a couple before
not sure why I thought quarterbacker earlier. Showing my age I guess? Anyway, the first and maybe last time I was in the linebacker was just in time to see Rob Henry showing his legs in a game Purdue won. I think it might have been NebraskaYou got it.
Corbys is closer to downtown.
Well, maybe I should reconsider my answer lol:Both talented, I think I pick Loer, possibly better vertical, passer, maybe more aggressive. Hard to judge the competition they’re playing.

not me, just by the videos, Loer is more athletic, better passer, better finisher, better hops, shooting seems equalWell, maybe I should reconsider my answer lol:
As a freshman and probably for the majority of his sophomore year, Mullins had reputation as an outside shooter. Not a bad reputation to have. But not really accurate, either. Not that he can’t shoot it. When Painter visited recently, Mullins shot 500 3-pointers on the shooting gun and made 90%.

“It used to be like that,” Mullins said. “It was like ‘We can put that kid in the corner and let him shoot.’ I haven’t heard that in a while, though.”
Mullins was a 47% 3-point shooter as a sophomore (54-for-116), establishing himself as one of the best outside shooters in the state. But it was his athleticism that surprised some college coaches in the spring.
That was my first opinion too just the description in that article made me kinda second guessnot me, just by the videos, Loer is more athletic, better passer, better finisher, better hops, shooting seems equal
Do we project to have any 2025 spots open now?
I guess it depends on who transfers at the end of this season.I don't believe so
Painter seemed to say 1 spot as Furst will graduate and there Could be more if there’s portal transfer(s).I don't believe so
But that assumes Furst leaves….doesn’t he still have a year of eligibility (plus Covid)?Painter seemed to say 1 spot as Furst will graduate and there Could be more if there’s portal transfer(s).
I think at this point you are telling kids that their COVID year can be used else where. It doesn’t do anything to help our program move forward by living in the past.But that assumes Furst leaves….doesn’t he still have a year of eligibility (plus Covid)?
Yes, for next year 2024. Furst is a junior and has next year as a Senior. The question was asked if there were any scholarship spot’s that will be open for the 2025 class.But that assumes Furst leaves….doesn’t he still have a year of eligibility (plus Covid)?
Completely agree.I think at this point you are telling kids that their COVID year can be used else where. It doesn’t do anything to help our program move forward by living in the past.
