(2021) PF Trey Kaufman to Purdue

[Chris007]

I'm still with Indiana. I'm in the 95% range. I have not heard anything, the same or different since last week. If anything I think the IU football win helped. That is the atmosphere he wants to be around I'm sure. Remember he doesn't want to be an engineer, he wants to study Physics. He has no problems doing that here at IU. Tell the guys at HSN to settle down, relax and get ready for another great Hoosiers weekend. Cheers!!

Dr. Siebert is the president of the California Institute of Technology. He has a doctorate in physics from Indiana University Bloomington. --> Big Bang Theory. Clearly IU has a top notch Physics program at IU.

Alright, let me address the VERY likely origin of the "Kaufman to Purdue" semi-buzz:

1. Coach Painter regularly speaks with Purdue Rivals Premium board reporter Brian Neubert.
2. Neubert apparently asked Painter about Kaufman. Painter is a pro and has integrity. He would NEVER take away a recruit's thunder by tipping the decision to a Rivals reporter. His answer to Neubert was likely along the lines of "we feel good." That is coach-speak designed to not tip the decision.
3. Neubert has, in the past, 'over-extended' on news he received in an attempt to provide 'premium board value' to his subscribers.
4. Neubert runs with his take; PU is looking good on signing Kaufman.
5. PU message board ninnies run with the optimism.
6. Milehi at HSN gets a private message from a poster who has read or gotten second-hand wind of the Neubert trail. Milehi then claims to have inside info that "winds are blowing to W. Layfayette on Kaufman." Lol

I will not 'done deal' any recruit until the Letter of Intent is signed, but I've got a pretty darn good idea that points one through six above are spot on, and that those that are spun up (and impressively, on this board there are almost none) should chilllllllllll-out.

Well, to your point #3.  Neubert certainly had them believing that Harrison Ingram was all but signed, sealed and delivered. Gotta be quite the tightrope walk between providing clickable content and striving for, ya know, accuracy.

Rabby, who truly is excellent {if you're reading this :)} overextended years back by fronting good news on Yogi to IU, and stealing a bit of the thunder from Yogi's announcement. The difference is that Jeff Rabjohns paid attention, adjusted, and now without exception does an excellent job, and does it without pissing off or biting the hands that feed him. Apparently, that is not the case with others.

Not going to get my hopes up, being the dumpster fire that is 2020 and all, but a previous post said he'd commit on Miller's birthday which is Friday (Oct. 30).

I’ve been on this board since like 2014 and every big time recruit thread is literally the EXACT same roller coaster haha. 1 rumor about a priority recruit going to Purdue and like a quarter of the board is ready to give up on the program for the next decade. Gotta love it lmao.

Kaufman back home today after attending the McDonalds AA evaluation camp in Mansfield, TX over the weekend.

Welcome abroad. Just listen to the people who know what's going on and you'll be fine. I like two things about Friday. I eat a Strom from Nicks for lunch and TK picking IU.

Thanks @Chris007, fingers crossed! Two things I'm doing Friday, eating at Yogis for lunch and hoping TK choose the cream and crimson!
