The men's program now has 4
Both would be solid pickups. Porter is a true PG who can score but also racks up the assists. Would probably be the starter D1. Welch is an intriguing prospect at the off guard position. She's an Indy native so closer to home. Will be a rising junior. Averaged 10 ppg this past year. A big jump from her rookie campaign. Good 3pt shooter at 45% on 64 tries. Tallied 93 assts BUT had 88 TOs which won't help the TO problem any.

Not portal target related, but hearing Virginia Tech is the expected landing spot for Sophie Swanson after her official visit there.
Not surprising - I'm sure she had formed a pretty good relationship with Duffy when she was recruiting her while at Marquette.
I loved Porter at UWisc. She would be a great pickup. Welch sounds like a depth piece.
Would have been a nice addition , but I see Katie Davidson signed with South Florida.
Duffy is an exceptional coach and will likely put Sophie in a position to be successful. Seems Purdue loses more to the portal at the guard position. Although CKG calls the shots, I’m wondering if Komara might not be part of an issue. Maybe the guards we’ve lost don’t care to play for her?
We've lost players for over a decade at a high rate. Certainly CKG lost a large number of guards here even before Komara was a coach.
I never understood that hire. Other than her player ties to Purdue, there was nothing on her coaching resume that would she would be good for Purdue, IMO. KK was an integral part of the disaster that SW had at Vanderbilt. I thought she might be the first assistant to be let go, instead, it was Guyton who I thought was during a pretty good job with the bigs.
I think you bring up a good point. CKG has consistently gone after easy gets. Both with players and coaches. KK played so therefore she can coach, is her assumption. Sometimes good players make bad coaches. Sometimes non players make exceptional coaches. CKG surrounds herself with people who will say “yes” and who are easy. Her recruitment of the 3 sets of sisters was disastrous and made us the laughing stock for sure. But it was “easy” to get siblings. It’s easy to get mid-majors… nice person but she just can’t recruit, both players and coaches.I never understood that hire.

Do we know for sure she was let go or maybe she decided she wanted to move on? McCarthy & Puryear are solid foundational pieces that I’ve heard are great kids. Who really knows the rationale of her departure.I never understood that hire.

Maybe you do. Are you saying that though it appeared Guyton was let go, she actually left on her own?
I only read that she was no longer with the program. Of course I’m not sure CKG could ever speak on it since it’s an HR/employment issue but I was curious if anyone knew why she was gone.
Not sure, and I haven’t calculated up positions of our portal entrants but just seems to be predominantly guards. I could be wrong.
Saw where last year's Indiana Ms. Basketball Chloe Spreen committed to IU - she barely played at Alabama. Will be interesting to see how good she truly is.
