Is it time to approach Catchings again to replace Colvin Portal entrance?
Not a Rumor nor April Fools
- Thread starter WHS70
- Start date
Must find a 6-5 or 6-6 big guard or wing because that’s what was lost when. Kelvin left. All of our guards are small 6-3 and shorter. Unless Harris bulks up we need a bigger body
what about former IU player Mgbako. I am convinced that he would have excelled at Purdue.
You know I didn't think so in the other 7 threads about this but now I'm considering it.
Mgbako is allergic to playing defense. I’d pass.
He is a cancer, wants to play no defense, only worried about how many shots he can get.
How is Benter off the bounce. As Athletic as Heide and Colvin... neither were good off the Bounce... Someone that could get to rim will be awesome
This is insanity. Catchings would declare for the portal before the end of the season. He wants guarantees with no effort to earn a spot. The kid is like a cancer to a program.
with the body of a 43 yr old who doesn't lift weights....
Dude can hoop though.... You don't know Smith and Loyer and they roll up on your pickup game.... they are taking everyones cash.
The same guy that was arrested as soon as he hit the IU campus at a Taco Bell at 3:00 AM? The same guy that the Indiana board is claiming right now (not me, IU "fans" are posting there) texted Yarden Garzon some Jewish hate, the University didn't have her back so the entire women's team left IU? I think we'll pass until all of that gets exposed as truth or not.... thanks though.
No. We need to keep the culture we already have going. He already bailed on his future teammates once.
I wouldn't hate Tre Holloman or Xavier Booker from Michigan State who both just entered the portal.
Jack Benter listed at 6'5 and Antione West Jr. listed at 6'4 but he plays much bigger.
Can Benter and West take it to the rim or drive to create for themselves or others at this level?
Wow, with graduation & pro draft departures, that makes 6 departures from a B10 winning team. They are going to be extremely active in the portal and still will have a hard time matching this year's bunch, as that Frosh Richardson leaving was special.
Holloman?? Big Hell no!
Pretty sure Benter shattered a back board in HS on a drive…
I was shocked he’s leaving but stuff coming out that his agent was asking around the las month or 2.
Yah I’ve seen that but I was asking if it would translate to the big ten level 🙂
Well Jack has a broken backboard on his resume. West, I have seen him dunk a few times penetration of the lane has been hit and miss usually results in a foul. Both are great passers and even better shooters from deep. My biggest complaint with West is he seems to take his foot off the gas and defer to others once they get a big enough lead. His body is about the same as CJ and Gicarri. Jack is a coach's kid if you're not protecting the rim he is attacking it. I would say both are capable with the upper hand to Jack he will take what you give him; he knows how to play the angles and passing lanes. In HS Jack was listed at 6'6 I would say he's the same as Myles height wise. Jack is a more athletic Sasha and Antione is very similar to CJ just taller. Someone once said when Painter was recruiting Jack, he compared him to Sasha and Jack replied with more hair right? As far as creating your more than covered.
Don’t know how quick he is, but Benter broke a backboard dunking during a high school game. And that was before he started changing his body with the Purdue training and diet programs.
Edit:
Sorry… Did not read all the way through the other responses and see that several others have posted about the shattered backboard.
This supports my theory that Myles saw the future and it was competing for minutes with this guy.
Put Braden in slacks and suspenders and Loyer in surfer dude cloth in a ironic poser way. Be better than the remake with Soccer dude rapper from Louisville

Jack Harlow... Rapper ... my son plays soccer against him down across the river ... I think he is partail owner of City and Racing.
