Eastern interview on CSN

[Cevol03]

Summary of Eastern interview on CSN Chicago

- Painter did a great job recruiting, made a difference that the head coach showed up at games and not just assistants
- Clicked well with the team
- Appreciates academics at Purdue
- Will play point guard but Painter wants to use him to post up smaller point guards
- Ready to work hard

Seems like a great kid and family. I overhead his mom talking to CMP and she said to congratulate Brandon Brantley on the job well done. Great job by CMP and staff.

Nice summary. I watched the interview too. Seems like a great kid. And anyone that says that he didn't go to MSU only because they backed off doesn't know what they are talking about. It's clear that Nojel has kept Purdue at the top of his list the whole time and Painter simply won this battle by sticking with him, developing a good relationship with the staff and players, and selling him on the program and the academics. Well done Painter!

Wow, a 6'6 PG? Love it, especially if CE can guard those quick/pesky PG's that might be able to get around a bigger guard.
