I think it's about time for @Barrel Rick to pop in and make an appearance.

Multiple people have said it including Trilly. It's not happening

He cancelled the visit so he's not going to Purdue.

I don’t know that they’re guaranteeing anything. Basically saying they’ll have the opportunity the possibly fill those shoes

It was previously planned

Some things that went down yesterday. I’ve got a hunch it’s NIL related but that might only be part of it.

That’s a good question. Some people said IU was the leader, some said UK, and some said UCONN the last few weeks. I’ve heard all 3 from people close to Mullins. It was perceived to be IU up until about a month ago and then it shifted around the time of the UCONN visit. Today though it sounds like things shifted back.

There’s a lot going on with that one right now.

Well IU is selling to Haralson and Mullins that they’ll be able to step in and replace Rice and Carlyle. IU coaches believe they’ll get drafted. So basically if those guys don’t produce to that level then IU will likely underachieve and honestly I don’t want to have that conversation of what will happen then. I personally believe that at a minimum one of those 2 are gone. As for Newton he’s a wildcard that I don’t think gets much time even if he is healthy. That said he is a true wildcard so who knows.

That group will never be on the same roster

Has @Barrel Rick been around at all lurking or has he been a complete MIA since his last Mullins post?

It seems like the winds out of Greenfield have shifted within the last 24 hours. Hopefully they stay that direction for the next few weeks.

No

It is. Although I would argue that to many Mullins athleticism is as well.

You’re right about Mullins and McNeeley being different level players. Mullins is a much better athlete. One is a traditional SF and the other is a traditional SG.

Sounds about right

Wait and see what happens after the IU visit

If Mullins takes that visit

Not likely.

That's just not realistic

He is scheduled to visit the 22nd

Some 12 year olds in the trilly discord chat said so and let me tell ya. Those guys in there overreact to everything and their opinion on stuff changes every 5 minutes

What is the story here? I don't need real details or anything but I'm really just curious about what's happened and what's next.
