VPC Posted July 31, 2018 Posted July 31, 2018 I don't tend to worry too much about other teams reqruiting classes but seems like Purdue is getting some highly ranked players. We need to finish out our class strong. Stuhoo 1 Quote

So far they have two guys that IU looked at, but decided not to offer. The higher ranked of those two, Gillis, had knee surgery in April, and had another knee surgery last week:: Mason Gillis New Castle Chrysler Sch (New Castle, IN) National Composite Rank : 145 Commit 6/24/2018 Isaiah Thompson Zionsville (Zionsville, IN) National Composite Rank: 225 Commit 1/7/2018 thebigweave 1 Quote
ThompsonHoosier Posted July 31, 2018 Posted July 31, 2018 I think he is referring to football...Brohm and co. are killing it so far. They have landed four 4-star recruits in the 2019 class and currently have the 21st best class (4th in the Big Ten) in the nation. Edit: Hopefully some bigger programs come looking for Brohm after this season. VPC, Stuhoo and WayneFleekHoosier 2 1 Quote

WayneFleekHoosier Posted July 31, 2018 Posted July 31, 2018 Brohm is legit, and is rolling with momentum. I’m impressed but also not surprised. Hope he gets a call up soon. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote

He has a really good thing going at Purdue and can win a lot of games there. But yeah this class is unreal so far and can even improve as there are some highly-ranked guys that Purdue can still land.

Purdoo extended him at $4 mm/year, so it'll take a school giving him a decent bump to move him. IMO, he'll be at Purdoo for 2 more seasons then go to a traditional heavyweight or go back to his alma mater(Louisville). Quote
cthomas Posted July 31, 2018 Posted July 31, 2018 Exactly why I was disappointed we didn't have search for our next coach after Wilson. Coach Allen may end up being great, but IU should have at least tested the waters. I like what Purdue is doing in football and hate it at the same time. Josh and Iugradman 2 Quote

Our average star ranking for the 2019 class is 2.92. Theirs is 2.95. With 9 more commits. Chill. mamasa, thebigweave and SouthwoodKnight2012 3 Quote
