I really liked his game. I'm not sure why Izzo didn't play him more, other than he was playing the seniors a lot of minutes. Haas didn't average much more than that for us.
It almost makes no sense to me. Weatherford was committed enough to the team to RS. I see know reason for him to transfer unless Matt told him to go or said that he plans on never playing him.
I fear you use the term incorrectly, unless you are emphasizing the differences between the way Crean handles scholarships and the way Painter handles players. When Crean overcommits on his scholarships, he must force out an upper-class player. That is not what has happened at Purdue. Hence the difference between Painted and Creaned. I guess Painted means you have a one-on-one talk with you=r coach about your future as a player in the Purdue program. If the player decides to leave, then, and only then, Painter can use the empty scholarship for a new player. That is so fundamentally different than the approach Crean has taken in both MU and IU that I am surprised you don't understand. Oh wait, I forgot about your agenda.
Oh sorry. Should of came to you Mathboy to understand the difference in two situations that involve forcing kids out of programs. Still Painter forced Weatherford out. Why would he transfer if he didn't get forced out? He wont be a commodity and he knew he would have to fight for every minute he gets at Purdue.I fear you use the term incorrectly, unless you are emphasizing the differences between the way Crean handles scholarships and the way Painter handles players.

Grant might have left to play somewhere else. If he was forced out, then who are we awarding the scholarship to? I will wait for that answer.
I know Grant was always questioned about not being talented enough. I felt like a guy like him would play the role of going in and giving 100%. Teams need those guys who just make practice rough. I guess I just figured Grant would of been a 4 year guy with a possible 5th year transfer. It really is confusing as well since Grant was going to Purdue to be an engineer. Best of luck to him anyways and hope he turns into a solid player.
Nope don't think another Hummel, 3Twaun, and JJ class is coming for a long time. I like that we have been landing solid recruits every year which gives us quality depth. Depth was something Hummel's teams lacked. I could see 2017 being a year of landing maybe two 4* but not sure top recruits will be looking to join a senior led team that already has a solid core.
Your account of what happened seems quite different. Hmm...
What about that Cullen Neal. I realize a combo guard. He has been visiting many teams. If you switched him out for Weatherford. That's an improvement in talent.
Didn`t Painter offer after G.W. and Cline played together on a allstar game outastate and it was his defense that made him. Maybe I`m wrong but there had to be something he wasn`t a big time scorer.
