Benter will be impactful next year I think. You can't discount kids that aren't successful as sophs right away. Plenty of very fine players that didn't put it together till they were upperclassmen. I'm sure Paint will weigh all the options. But I also won't be worried if they stand pat.
If everyone is back. Not sure where the mins come from. Not saying he’s not good. But who does he take mins from?
 
They absolutely can, but the reality is that they vast majority of portal options wouldn't be. Who was Purdue going to realistically bring in that would be a better scoring option in Purdue's system than Smith, Loyer, and Trey?
Don't know, depends on who's available. Tons of factors go into that decision. I know Painter loves Loyer, but a 6'5 shooter who also has handles, get beat the D off the dribble and rebound would compete for minutes at the 2-3.

No guarantee all 3 stick around.
Who’s not sticking around? Smith would be the only one that may leave and that’s for the nba. And I don’t think he leaves unless he’s guaranteed a 1st round spot.

TKR is featured and our leading scorer and fletch is the second best shooter in the country right now and why would he leave?

Lol you need to understand Fletch is never going to the bench In his Purdue career.

I don't know any of them personally so don't know what might motivate them to leave. NIL and the portal have created a strange environment and we never know what would happen.
 
Care to make a gentlemen's bet on how many we lose to the portal this off-season?
Total or guys in the rotation? Unless something surprising happens in the next two months, I don't think anyone would be surprised to see Berg or Waddell test the waters.
