Supposed to be a good one.

Indeed he is. Painter has talent lined up for the next several years the rate he is going.

Eric Hunter Jr. is who I compare him to. How does a team player crack the top 100 rankings? He has to be a special team player. Kid can score from anywhere but for me it is his ability to see the whole court. If your open, he will find you. He has a Purdue mindset when it comes to lose balls reminds me of finding Nemo "Mine, Mine, Mine". This commit is a can't miss!

He seems bigger and already better at creating and hitting tough shots —similar to what CJ can do. Definitely like the direction Paint and staff are going with the type of guards in the backcourt. Tall, hard nosed, tough bucket getters who are athletic.

Will be interested to see how the 2026 class shapes up. SR3 has to be our main priority and then I saw Trey Thompson is going to be at the game this Friday on an Official visit…he just picked up an offer from UT a bit ago.

Yeah for sure. I don’t worry about Paint and staff finding bigs…but we are looking good with DJ and Burgess. Trey Thompson is interesting and who knows…maybe we get SWA this Sunday (prob not).
