(2021) PF Trey Kaufman to Purdue

If Archie refused to "promise" Kaufman a 3-spot. it wouldn't have been because he is confident of his current roster. Coaches recruit the best players available (who they think they get) irrespective of who they already have on roster which is why Archie is recruiting 6'-4" guard Aminu Mohammed even though IU has guards Franklin, Galloway, Leal, Lander, and Phinisee.

True.  Then by your logic wouldn’t that already say something on how Archie views him as a 3 versus what we have?

Some on this board are making it seem like Archie pushed Kaufman away from IU. That is  ridiculous. Kaufman was Archie's top priority in this recruiting class. Archie undoubtedly did everything possible to land Kaufman, his top priority but didn't succeed. It is disappointing but it is the world of recruiting.

Absolutely agree on Kaufman being top target after Lander reclassed!

I believe Archie,and all of IU nation, wanted him. My perspective was, Kaufman wanted a promise of playing the 3,and Archie probably told him that stretch 4 would be more of a need looking forward.

Definitely don't think Archie pushed him away.

I have high hopes, Jerome will be that multidimensional, multi position player, we're desperately needing on the wing, or small 4.
