Purdue picked up a small shooting guard that needs a drive and kick to succeed?

Oh that’s not gonna work.

 

Hey, hey, hey, let's give them their moment. They finally landed someone from the portal. Let them feel good for at least a little while.

Huzzah HUZZAH!!

Someone said 'yes' to Purdue. 

Unfortunately for them, it's David Jenkins Jr.,  a 6'1" shooting guard that hit the portal because he got benched on a terrible Utah team last year. It will be his fourth team in five years.

 

I have the utmost confidence that Not Purdue will bounce back from this setback.

Go over to gold and black.  The most optimistic thing I think I saw was that he would be starting.  When a fanbase can’t even spin a pickup the coach is struggling. 
 

We let go of a local legend for not being on board with NIL for a reason. Painter needs to get with it.

As far as Purdue fans are concerned, Braden Smith is going to end up giving the Big Ten fits.

Is it clear that Painter's not on board with it? Purdue just might not be able to compete/raise the NIL $ that other Power 5 schools are able to.

I think their problem is that they have a good but shallow fan base. Our success over the years, and recognition as basketball royalty, gives the depth to compete in that arena.

They should be able to raise enough for one Marquee player you would think. I guess unless they had to use their funds to keep their front court but if so Painter is dumb.  Gotta have your guards before anybody.  If we didn’t have a group of guards in place for next year I am sure Woodson would be all over that

As an undersized non-pg, Utah to B1G, Jenkins Jr. bears some superficial resemblance to Alonso Plummer. But Plummer got to play next to, arguably, the second-best guard in the conference, in Trent Frazier, and Jenkins…doesn’t get that luxury. (Not to mention Demo’s less-than-ringing endorsement.)

Bob McKillop with a surprise retirement press conference. Brutal timing for Davidson unless they hire an assistant, which I'm assuming they will, and even then not great.

One of the best. Imagine his son Matt will get the gig.
