Top 2022 PG Back on the Market

2022 4/5 Star Dior Johnson decommitted from Oregon. I have no idea if Purdue would be interested in this guy as I am not sure they would consider another freshman, but the attached article says he is looking for a place with an opportunity for early playing time. I don't know much about him except this is the second time he has de-committed from somewhere (Syracuse). Purdue did not recruit him originally.

Decommitting twice suggests strongly to me that he has serious issues. I would pass as this is the kind of player that could cause serious locker room issues a la Johnson.

Definetly a yellow flag, but again I don't know enough about him to make a judgement.

Nike needs to send some funds our way to keep him in the fold.

You may want to change your yellow flag to a red flag; the kid played for TEN different high schools. Seems like a G-League Ignite player in the making.

I'm an Indiana fan, and while I love when Purdue is bad, even I don't want to see them deal with drama like that kid. He's not a Purdue type guy. He's a coach in desperation mode guy at this point. Nebraska would take a runner on a kid like this.

Not to mention he’s been to like 100 different high schools

Only 10.

I’m sure he’s out looking for the highest bidder, again.

 

[TX4GB]

He committed to Pitt, for now.

He committed to Pitt, for now.

Huh.

Pitt.... then to Minny... the to Texas... then we'll hear how wonderful he is, and how he should be playing at Purdue.

😁

He may be a great player. But people here should realize painter looks at a lot more factors than just basketball ability when recruiting a player. Painter considers what type of a person the player is! If money and personal stats are more important to a person than playing winning team basketball, then that player is not coming to Purdue. Painer is known as a good evaluator of talent. He’s also a very good evaluator of a person’s character!
