Welp ..... just read Smith is heading to Bama
- Thread starter BBG
- Start date
A lot of misinformation out today. This one I verified Kaleb Banks formerly of IU. Has it down to UK, Purdue and Syracuse. Banks is 6'8 will be a senior averaged 15 points and 7 boards for Tulane. Says he wants to play for a winner.
Even if it's April fool's there's no way he'd go to Alabama. Arkansas maybe, but not AL. Plus, Purdue is in a situation where they will pay him what he deserves. They've proven that for years.
That’s April fools Ob. Those are 3 of IU’s most hated teams haha
BBG this aint funny lolol. Even if it is your version of April fools.
Heard Oates and staff has been calling his dad and offering 5M and saying they’re gonna win a national championship.
Oates is a dick and that's widely known. Calipari and his mom and dad are from Ark could make sense. Purdue isn't going to let the best point guard in 60 years leave solely based on $. Purdue basketball can play that game.
Haha the OP is an April fools joke. Smith isn’t goin to bama..but teams are reaching out to him for 5M+
I just read that Cooper Flagg is ditching the NBA and Duke to come to Purdue.
And Ace Bailey! They’re ready to show the nba they CAN play the role player
I know it's a april fools joke, but ARK would have been a better joke. There's no doubt Purdue plays the NIL game in basketball.
His mom is from Arkansas. Dustin is from Howard county or 10 minutes from Kokomo
ahh, the TV announcers have repeatedly said his mom and dad played ball in Ark Tech. Still, the april fool's day joke would have been better if the OP said Arkansas because that's more believable - that was my point.
They did play college in Arkansas. Dustin was in the backcourt with Austin Parkinson
Just out of curiosity, what do you think that number is? I bet he could get 3 million in the portal.
Was a weak attempt .. I know.. I'll do better next year
2.5-3 with keeping certain players and grabbing certain guys out of portal… but teams have are offering 5M+
You know that almost gets to the level of taking him out of the will
But some may be willing to pay crazy money he does not deserve. Top HS player not yet playing a college game got close to 10 million...
are you talking about Braden? He deserves to be the top paid player in college bball next year.
Hypothetically, let’s say Purdue’s max offer is 3.5M, but some other school offered 5M. Who you blame Braden for taking the higher offer and leaving?
No but pretty sure he’d stay with that situation. he prob leave if it were a 2.5-3M gap. And even then, I think paint would figure out how to close it
