Purdue freshman Caleb Swanigan is declaring for the NBA Draft, but will not hire an agent.

With so many kids that are going to test the draft u figured we could put them in here unless there is already one dedicated to that

Lol little brother must be sweating bullets.  He really shouldn't go, but the way Painter misused him I gotta think theres a real chance he does just leave.

Kris Dunn, also declared.

Since his " Legal Guardian " is an agent already ........

Yep nothing wrong with that at all, not like our guys that got suspended for their legal guardians wife buying bumper stickers before they were born.

It's just because of the new rules. Obviously no chance he actually goes.

They'll be so many kids declaring under the new rules, you wonder just how much valid feedback they'll receive.

BREAKING: The ACC will declare for the NBA Draft but will not hire an agent.
That's funny

@evandaniels
Cat Barber told Mark Gottfried he will sign with an agent & enter the NBA Draft, per sources. @PackPride w the scoop

Normally, I would say no chance but I'm not sure he was pleased with how things ended up in boiler land.  I think he goes if he gets feedback he'd go in the first round.

If he got that feedback, then yes. But there's almost no chance he gets a first round grade.

I think Troy and Bryant will declare. Hopefully they both come back, but realistically could see Bryant leaving.

I just don't see TB leaving.. Talks about how much he likes the players and coaches and the relationship they all have. By his in-game expressions i can tell he just enjoys playing college basketball.. Stays at least another year if not more

If he continues his play in the tournament, but before the Kentucky game he struggled against any quality interior defense.  I think he is a great young player but if he leaves someone isnt giving him good info

Don't be so sure..

[Brass Cannon 24,291]

If Bryant plays really well on Friday and we win that could boost his stock enough. If he does we probably need to start look and scoring big men grad transfers just in case.

[HoosierRob 1,042]

Bryant said last year his plan was to be at IU for 2 years. But vonleh also said something to that degree.

I've said all year that TB would be back next year. But if we keep winning and he keeps this up, I could really see him leaving.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,118]

IMO, Momma Bryant is the decision maker for TB, and I have a feeling she's not ready to see her baby go bump and grind with the big boys.  I think we've got him for 1 more year.  (typed with a 95% confidence level)

It all boils down to projection. It almost always does. At least we don't have to worry about the "Simmons Effect" due to being a poor student.

[IUsince1980 315]

Also, dont forget, even through our wins in the reg season, Bryant usually wasn't putting up big numbers. We have never really counted on him for more than 8-10 points, 5 or so rebs. He just blew up in the UK game. He still has a lot to work on and I believe he craves to get better. I'd be stunned to see him leave. Bank on him back next year.
