Scholarship limits are a thing of the past. Michigan football had an extra 20ish players not on scholarship last year, that were given NIL to cover the costs. Purdue could do this for one basketball player if needed. 

They could, but they don't have have Michigan football money and literally have a guy like Waddell who has only played mop up minutes for the past two years.

I don't see how we could land a player with those kind of minutes and production for the limited roles we appear to have left to offer. Maybe money will be enough, assuming we still have a lot after the guys already acquired, but Goode seems a reach at this point to me.

I agree. I don't see how a kid like him looks at our 6 scholarship guards, out MCDAA freshman wing and our MCDAA combo forward and sees an obvious path to sustained rotation minutes. They may be there and that may not be there at all. I imagine they'll be able to fill the backup 4-5 fairly easily because they can sell that as 20 minute rotational role, though barring injury I doubt that's how that will actually go, but for a wing shooter that's gonna be tough.

Looks like he'd be 8th in the rotation, to me, but maybe 7th depending on Tucker's ability to adapt to the D1 level.

Goode is more 3/4 than he is 2/3.

strongly disagree.  He's a 3 with some 2 tendencies.  He's 6'5'', 6'6''.  He wouldn't be playing 4 at Indiana.  

I'm not sure we will get him but the staff wanted a shooter and he is definitely that.  Seems they still want a stretch 4 and and a back up 5.  

Some accounts saying it won't be Indiana but the timing his hard to ignore.

zip your dirty little mouth!!! 

honestly... we could take both of them and be friggin set. 

That is true.  Last I heard, we had pre-med programs!

I say back the Brinks truck up for both and let them go in and take as much cash out for each other as possible, every man for themselves!

He played the 4 some, at ILL. The way our roster make-up is currently, he could for sure play some 4. 

I don't see any 2 in his game, at all.

So you're telling me there's a chance?

 

 

Did IU recruit him out of high school? Believe it would have been towards then end of Archie. 

Edit: Would love to have him here. Hope we get him. Just find it hard to believe he would leave for 15 minutes a game. I feel his role at Illinois would be bigger.

one year left, continue the family tradition of attending IU, earning more money and playing at "home" sounds appealing
