Some word on street , he is trying for medical redshirt to get 1 more year and that Purdue has made some overtures to him if he gets the year. Lafayette boy, be interesting.
Brooks Barnhizer
- Thread starter pubill
- Start date
If he accepted the role to be the dirty work guy and wing defender and not mind his scoring dipping drastically, he’d be awesome.
BUT. It was an April fools joke and not happening
What if we throw in a set of false teeth? Think we definitely get him then!
Apparently, he does have a similar case to Luke Goode.
Not sure he has filed to try to get an extra year tho, but if Goode wins, then certainly Brooks would too.

Bingo….didn’t realize he only played like 70-80 minutes his freshman year. NCAA has given waivers for crazier things.
Other point of interest - he and TKR are buddies.
he's a good complimentary player not a lead guy like he was at nw, I believe he'd blend well at PU
I don’t see how Goode has a case at all. Medical redshirts are for season ending injuries. How do you give a medical redshirt to a guy who missed the beginning of the season but played at the end of the season? Then again, the NCAA will just get sued if they deny the waiver and end up allowing it anyway.
Agreed. But they roll over when they get sued so pretty sure that’s what he is hoping for.
you are wrong, exactly what we need at the 3.
💯 if he was willing to accept the do the dirty work role and guard the best guy on the other team and be ok with his scoring decreasing, I’m all for it.
He can go ISO, maybe not the best in the county, but certainly better than what we had last year or this coming year (so far). He could also handle the ball and let Braden work off ball or get some “rest” during some possessions.
Would be really cool if it happened but I am not going to hold my breath 😂
Tough kid and this team needs more of that.
I was told by someone connected to Lafayette Jeff that his request for medical redshirt was denied. This person also told me if he ever did go to the transfer portal, Auburn would be the destination. His father and Bruce Pearl have a very good relationship.
Brooks would honestly be a perfect fit as a 4th or 5th option. Good defender, can get to rim or hit open shot. Would honestly elevate ceiling if he gets extra eligibility and just wants to carve out role for contender in his last year.
Yeah if it happens somehow he could also help take pressure off Braden by being an extra ball handler
It's probably a pipe dream, but would be cool if it happens. Would fit in immediately with team chemistry IMO.
Barn not going to happen, but having likely potential double digit scorers @ all 5 positions would be legit. At least with further portal shopping it is still possible.
The medical redshirt would be for his freshman year and he came back. Same as Goode. Only difference is brooks also had a season Ending injury this year. Both would be unlikely as they usually limit to I think 8 games (brooks played 11, Goode 10) and usually have to be in first half of season. But they must think they have a chance if they applied for the waiver.
You'd think any player with half a reason that isn't an NBA guy will be applying for another year of NIL, i mean school.
They have a case for only playing 10% of the season. But what they won’t have a case for is the “season ending injury” part. Not sure how that will work out.
Agreed,but he certainly showed that his scoring game was stronger and more consistent than Colvin and Heide.....

Barnhizer and his teeth are locked in as he tries to help the Wildcats make a third straight NCAA Tourney appearance.

Yeah I heard this morning that if he gets the extra year, he's absolutely transferring. Didn't necessarily say Purdue.
You hearing anything about Elijah Saunders from VA possibly coming to Purdue?
Yes that too.
We are his top 5. Tech was one too. But toppin (big 12 POTY) just announced he’s back and I believe they play the same position. Wonder how that’d impact his decision to go there.
From the highlights, it looks like he could help us (of course the highlights always look that way haha)
