I wonder who we’re going to replace him with ?

Burgess. Or someone from the portal. I am not surprised he entered the portal at all as his PT likely gets less next year.

Always likes. Berg. I hope he lands in a good spot and has a lot of success.

 

[Carlboiler]

I think we get cluff

 

[Fugs]

Good luck Will Berg. 👍

 

[proudopete]

Maybe he knows something about Cluff signing with us.

I'm a little sad about this. I liked him but totally understand. Hope he lands on his feet and finds a better situation

For sure. Was hoping he would pan out. Wish the best for him.

Wish Will Berg the best......good luck, and thank you to him for being part of the Purdue Boilermaker team.

It's just one of those things. You take a shot in recruiting and you miss. Brantley can't perform magic with everyone. Wish him the best.

Too slow, that won’t improve, he has a chance to be ok at a lower level, good luck to Will, seems like a good guy.

 

[Wolegib]

Not a shocker. A little sad he had his agency make his announcement for him in a templated announcement

 

[Ajas0810]

Same day cluff visited. Maybe cluff committed today.

I think the lower body injuries slowed him down some, happens with big guys sometimes.

You could tell he wasn’t in painter’s future plans when Jacobsen went down and how little playing time painter gave berg to fill in to replace him

And with all that practice against Edey with no sort of improvement in his game

 

[Steve83]

Good luck!

 

[Wolegib]

His game and strengths just did not match what painter needed from him. Basically he was a really big guy and not much more.

 

[Bank Shot Podcast]

Well duh.

Sorry to see him go but he had no choice IMO. I was so impressed with him in Sweden. He just didn't fit here.

I hope he does extremely well where ever he goes. And someone will pick him up for sure. Great bench guy.

 

[Heads up BOILER]

Would love to see him drop down a bit and come to Evansville and play for UE. He would be a star!!

 

[*Shockerrr*]

Good kid but the writing was on the wall especially the way the season went for him. Wish him well!

 

[ChoiceBeef]

At the right mid major - he is going to do awesome. Wish him all the besg

Yep, he had some offensive skill against lesser opponents, against fast/athletic bigs he was out of place. He would have been a 5 minute a game player next year, I’m sure he knew that.

He was way too slow, it’s best if he moves to a lower level, he can prosper at a Valpo type of team.
