Ahrens Offered

[Roeder]

per his Twitter. 6'6 wing with a smooth lefty shot. Other offers from Ohio State (decommit), Missouri, Texas AM, Vanderbilt.

Looks like a solid basketball player to me. Would fit in well with pieces Purdue has in '17/18 classes.

Think Xavier is in on him too.

I thought we had already offered him. I know we were watching him before his commitment and then decommitment. It's a good offer and Purdue has a need at the wing. THT and Henry are good, but THT is blowing up and Izzo has been courtside for his games last week while nobody from Purdue showed up. Other coaches were there too. We are also late on Henry. Been watching him for a while, but he has started getting noticed. If we don't offer soon, it may be too late.

At least from the highlight tape, the young man has a smooth and sweet release and follow thru, and they even go in(yes, highlight tape), can always use athletic, tall shooters.
Let's get him signed, boys!!

I agree. From what I can tell this would be a terrific pickup.

Let's just hope he thinks Purdue is the best situation for him since we know "some" don't care how long they were recruited like Damezi

IMO this is a great offer and I think he chooses Purdue or Xavier.

He fits our system and I hope Dakota is in his ear to let him know how awesome Purdue is.

I am sure Painter has told Langford (Will find out final 5 soon), Hunter (Good chance), Ahrens (IMO good chance), Embrey (Good chance), Butler (LSU lean) and Archie (Texas lean) that he is looking for two quality guards (SG/SF) that compliment the team and each other.......

Any mix of the two above would be great for Purdue......my gut says Hunter, Ahrens or Embrey.....

(Langford in my dreams.......wow Langford, C. Edwards and Eastern...that guard line-up would be epic)

Funny thing is insert any of the names above next to Boogie and Eastern and wow...epic line-up.

Love the quality young men the staff is looking at to join the Purdue family.

Boiler Up!

That's a bummer. Those three are all good schools.. looks like the new OSU coach is hitting the road running

didn't he already commit to OSU and like Butler and Holtsman before? I expect OSU

 

[Wolegib]

it appears he was previously committed to OSU and then decommitted due to a coaching change ? obviously, he's ok with the new coach. I would expect he goes back to OSU.
