Based on the responses to that Tweet, it sounds like a potential 5th year Big who Purdue originally recruited may be coming. I haven't followed the list of grad transfers very closely. Any ideas?
Purdue in play for 2017 5-star forward? (link)
- Thread starter TC4THREE
- Start date
I did not read 5th year into it? Maybe Derek Willis though?
Perhaps the once recruited is a 7' Williams from Fort Wayne who went elsewhere and now has changed his mid and coming here? Who knows?
I just thought it was in reference to either McCoy or Ondingo though.....
I have read on here several times, we will know more tomorrow .......well its tomorrow....still know nothing more.

Either spell check is NOT my friend or I meant it.
Who were great one-and-dines? Barkley? Shaq? Shawn Kemp. U-M's Robert "Tractor" Traylor? Big fellas.
Did we recruit Thompson originally? And is he a 5th year eligible? I don't recall much about him.
can he back out of his signed LOI? is this guy inferring that he might be coming to purdue instead?
That would be amazing
That would be amazing
I can't recall. I mainly remember anthony lee from temple being recruited, but seem to recall Thompson as well. I'm getting too old to remember all thist stuff
If this was in response to me I'm not saying anything other than THIS KID isn't coming to Purdue.
Yes, I did believe we did recruit TT right before his transfer to OSU
Not sure how Thompson could play immediately but I don't know all the recruiting laws by heart either. He's be a decent pick up but I wouldn't be overwhelmed by it. OSU players seem to be broken under the current regime.
Edit: He's a third year sophomore according to 247 which means he's been held back a few times :lol:

He has his degree or plans to have it. He would be a fifth year transfer and immediately eligible.
Actually no he didn't. Biggie was outside the LOI window and simply enrolled at Purdue which is what he would have done at MSU had he not changed his mind.
I have no clue. I would think so since his best shot at pro ball involves countries where they leave the head of the fish on when they cook it.
It means they sit out a year if they change their mind. That's meaningful to me.
Well, they don't sit out a year if the school releases them from their LOI which is common after a coaching change or if there are upcoming sanctions. Coincidentally, one week ago it was announced that the NCAA rejected UL's defense of Rick Pitino in the scandal with the prostitutes. Speculation is that he could be suspended next year along with other sanctions. So, that could lend some credence to the Malik Williams idea.

View it as "none of us knows jack but we will find out tomorrow". But it's like the sign in the diner that says free hamburgers tomorrow. Tomorrow is always the next day.
It is bad isn't. I'd think a fiancé would have fixed that by now.....and that really bad hair cut...
I find that I am much happier over the next 6 months if I just watch recruiting very casually and enjoy it when someone commits. I must also remember not fall into the "well these 5 guys are the ones we talked about on the rivals board so they must be the must haves" trap. I think that will always lead to disappointment and false information.
Wether I can resist or not is another issue.
