Just spoke with him about his weekend visit to Purdue, but also what comes next. He has no plans for any other visits at this point, but says maybe in the spring. Says Purdue wants him to come in what Carsen Edwards was and now Jaden Ivey is for them.
On returning to Lafayette, there was some static on the line when he was talking about that part, but I think he's open to it, but not needing to do it. I don't see it as much of a factor, except for the potential notoriety it could provide him if he plays where he's from. One thing to make note of is that his parents moved out to Utah with him. His dad's on the staff out there.
Something else to note here is that this still is really just beginning. He hasn't played a game yet for Real Salt Lake. The move to Utah opened up a whole new market for him and those schools haven't really had a chance to see him play yet.
I'll write this story this week.
