how did Painter not lock this kid down for Purdue. He looks really good as a starter for iu. Taking the game over against PSU.
Another Painter whiff?

How did Painter lose Phinesee?
- Thread starter bonefish1
- Start date
It’s a serious question. Isn’t Phinesee from West Lafayette? I know our consolation prize was Hunter but this Phinesee kid looks a lot better.
He went to McCutcheon and wanted to “get away” for college. No whiff if no interest.
No I know, it’s just that this topic has been argued six ways from Sunday on here.
No another whiff by you. But keep playing though.
Never thought I would see the day when Northwestern was/is more athletic than a Purdue team. Northwestern isn’t just a little more athletic than Purdue...they are A LOT more athletic!
No kidding. I'm starting to think that one of the reasons CMP can't get some of these recruits to PU is because of the negative recruiting...……..by our own "fans". Praising an IU player while calling one of PU's player a consolation prize...…..that's f*cked up.
That’s how I feel in November when it’s time for Painter to sign his recruiting class.
No interest because Purdue is generally where Point Guards go to die...including Painter himself for that matter.
I thought I heard a comment on the telecast this weekend that he was the first guy in like since the 40s to go to IU from West Lafayette...pretty crazy.
What's it been ? almost a week? under this name that is...…..get out of my head!

Ha. Different POV must be somebody with multiple screen names. Your complex is rich. Have a good evening, stay away from any thing sharp.
Are people really getting this worked up about Phinisee? Robert Phinisee? Now, you're just searching.
Who is worked up, other than a blowhard (Pit Bull) who can’t handle himself?
All I read was a simple observation about how it stings losing a player out of your back yard, especially when PG play has been very suspect this year. This board surely ain’t for the faint of heart.
You’re delusional if you don’t think Phinisee wouldn’t have helped this team this year. He just had 12/6/5 with 1 TO in his first B10 road game and absolutely single handily won that game for IU. Point guard play for Purdue has been atrocious this year. Phinisee has almost a 3:1 A/TO ratio.
Yes I’ve seen him play and no, I’m not getting the pitchforks out because he didn’t come to Purdue. Lol.
Why do you post something like this? Are you not really a Boilermaker? It seems like you just want to throw dirt at Purdue, regardless of the subject.
Phinesse probably felt he could have a more immediate impact at IU and liked Archie's system. I think he likes and respects PU and Painter but felt IU was a better personal fit
I’m willing to bet if there was a coach he wanted to play for who was coaching at Purdue, his desire to “get away” would’ve been lessened.
Painter’s style isn’t exactly every PGs cup of tea.
CMP has wiffed on some PG's
PG in college is the only position where size doesn't matter much. One can go small here.
As long as he is fast with the ball.
That is what I would want.
A quick with the ball PG in college.
Or a big pg like jelly.
I always thought jelly is like tyreke evans
Why did we let bane go?
While not a pg he can score the ball.
I feel like we let a lot of in state players go where they could score some here in the last few years??
How to win at basketball?
Score more points than the other team.
Let's run 4 guards out there if we can't score over 60 points. That's Wisconsin bad -high school bad.

Misses on his top targets signs the most underrated bunch of the top targets. Scrappy, lunch pail kids.
I've watched Philnisee at total of 1.5 times. Last night was the most I've watched of him, against Penn State, who beat VaTech. All I'm saying is the kid looked really solid. Shot with confidence, drove/finished when the opportunity was there, played solid D, I think he had 14 pts or so.
Maybe he played his game of the year and will go backwards from here, but when we're struggling at PG and our Fr PG doesn't look ready, and iu comes into Painter's back yard and steals one, that's hard to understand recruitingwise.
All you have to look at is how many PGs Keady and Painter have put in the NBA......PG is the most important position on the floor and definitely the most important in tourney time.
The Keady (and until Carsen) and Painter PG philosophy, except for a few minor exceptions, has been a pass-first, defense first, PG. Not a creator, and not someone who can get points on their own.
This is a philosophy they've both had and IMHO, a big reason they've struggled to recruit highly rated PGs.
No way he felt threatened by who Purdue had in the fold.
