Purdue is using the NIL, just differently than other schools. We are using it for retention to make sure we don't have to go hire mercs every year. So far the teams with the most success using NIL have been getting one or two really good players out of the portal. The hiring entire teams each season hasn't had very good results.
just off hand w/o doing any research, I think that big from Yale ( Wolf ) would have been a good add
I would have like to have seen another bigger guard who can get his own shot, penetrate and finish. Marquette exposed our lack of athleticism at the guard spot, same as Uconn did.
Not sure what is going on with him at K-State but Woof!

I am not judging based on a handful of games but something isn't jiving just yet for KSU.
FIRE SHAKA !!!
Yeah something is up but would have been great had he come here. He’d def be having a better season haha
Haha (I assume) you’re joking cuz in reality that’d look really bad with future players haha. But I guess other teams do it …but that ain’t paint
Yeah he very well may have used the “not going to bring in a portal guy on top of you” as part of his pitch to DJ.
Players transfer all the time. No recruit would bat an eye at a guy like berg transferring to a lower level where he’s more suited to play.
Storr - absolutely not. 7 schools in 7 years, not a culture fit and would ruin the chemistry and just not that consistently good
Kadary Richmond is a 6-5 guard that started out at Cuse and then spent the last 3 years at Seton Hall. Was considered the best transfer in the portal and is now at St. Johns. Averaged 15.7ppg, 7rpg, 5apg. This year is averaging 10, 6 and 6. Averaged 2.2 steals last year as well. Was All Big East 1st team and lead Seton Hall to an NIT title last year.
Just one abd they'll be our first game in the tournament 🤣🤣🤣
What would he be 'great' at here? Did you think he was 'great' at anything at IL? Serious questions. He's certainly long and athletic.
Just add the athleticism on defense and maybe some scoring from the 4/5 spot. I’d say he’d be a nice fill in next to TKR. But I guess he wasn’t known as a dominant rebounder.
Maybe you should back off this Carlyle superman rant! This guy is shooting less than 30% from two and three. Defense??? Maybe if IU played somebody besides Pee-wee Herman and Mary had a little lamb, you could echo his defense, but he has shown practically nothing! Purdues freshman guards have been more productive than the over paid guard of IU! How much are you paying that dude?
Who exactly has Carlyle guarded that he can “get at it defensively”? UNCG or maybe South Carolina? Maybe it was eastern Illinois or even the rally tough team of Marian?
