Third option: real, pre-recorded snippet accidentally airs with him talking about his motivations to commit to Purdue, UVA, etc, but not THAT he committed to Purdue. Exactly what was said matters if it was accidentally aired. lillurk 1 Quote

Class of '66 Old Fart Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 Not a single reputable source that follows college basketball recruiting has so much as whispered that any such announcement took place. Were it true, twitter world would have exploded. Everybody take a deep cleansing breath. Chris007 1 Quote

Were it true, twitter world would have exploded. Everybody take a deep cleansing breath.Idk. It adds suspense. The tweet being taken down doesn’t substantiate it as fake. People not jumping on it makes sense too. No self respecting journalist wants to steal the shine. All logic says IU.All else points Purdue.

Stuhoo Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 Rabby, sadly is apparently also pointing to Purdue. Quote
TheWatShot Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 Yeah, I think it's Purdue. Too much smoke. Like I posted earlier this week, losing 7 straight to your rival has consequences. tortex28 1 Quote

WayneFleekHoosier Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 Ouch. Remarkable. Rabjohns too.So my intuition about reaching out to the Finnish kid was likely correct. If so, this is a killer Purdue class that will have Indiana reeling for a while. Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners tortex28 1 Quote
Aaron Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 If he chooses PU good luck to him. At some point Archie has to show he can beat PU and Painter is really good with bigs. This was going to bite us at some point and if Painter lands the two top bigs in the state this was the year that bill came due. Archie could very well rebound from this and it won't make or break team (especially if we land another top big) but at some point Archie needs to beat PU if he is going to remain coach here regardless of anything else he does and so far he has not shown he can. lillurk 1 Quote
Brass Cannon Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 I’m still not buying it. We constantly talk about these analysts on Rivals and 247 changing their picks at the last second. There’s been no movement. No late comers looking to snag an easy correct pick. thebigweave 1 Quote
Stuhoo Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 Hey... we’ve gotten three Mr. Basketball’s in a row. If we miss in one it should not prevent an upward trend if Archie and crew are up to the task. mamasa 1 Quote

The coaches don’t know yet supposedly and the family is denying this happened or that it is real so what would they be basing their changed pick on? Quote

lillurk Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 I initially thought it was a hoax, and it may still be — if it was on the radio, I’m surprised no one has the audio. But I worry the rumor has enough legs that we’re at the point where it’s concerning no professional media have debunked it. Quote
Chris007 Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 This might have legs. Purdue is selling him that he’s a 3. I don’t think he beats out Hunter or Thompson the next 2 years. He’s not a 3 here. I’ve reached out but no one is answering. Archie has to beat Painter this year. lillurk and ALASKA HOOSIER 1 1 Quote

BUT, if you are a “Snow” or someone that previously put in a crystal ball to IU, they need to be 100% certain if they are going to flip this late in the game and I don’t know that they have enough to say that Quote
