No no no I’m assured it’s just crazy Purdue fans conjuring up conspiracy theories!
I am not going to get worked up about potential deals that never happened. Of course Dawkins was fishing for deals.
Bowen didn’t end up at Indiana and neither Thomas Bryant or OG signed with ASM
Yup. All those guys who chose other programs really wanted to go to Purdue but they weren’t able to get in because the couldn’t cut it academically. After all, Purdue is at the Ivy League level. Lulz.
Not worried. Bryant and OG didn’t sign with them and we didn’t get Bowen. Not really a smoking gun.
You guys were doing shady shit. Whether it's now or in the past, works out with a recruit or doesn't, it hardly matters. Can't respect a program like that considering there are programs out there that do it the right way. I will say there's not enough stuff out about Indiana to say anything definitive but MSU is clearly a dirty program with all this smoke.
Purdue might be the only one after this.
You don’t have a clue what Indiana was or wasn’t doing and neither do I. What I do know is nothing of that proposal came to fruition
Its actually exactly what it said. You must have skimmed over it:
He dangles a high school prospect – five-star recruit Brian Bowen – as potential trade bait for schools to steer their best players to ASM Sports. On the same July day, Dawkins wrote to Miller that he connected with two Big Ten assistants, Dwayne Stephens of Michigan State and Chuck Martin, formerly of Indiana.
The email recounts the interactions from Dawkins’ perspective:
“Dwayne Stephens – Trying to close the deal on Brian Bowen for Michigan State. Trying to do a trade deal for (Spartans) Gary Harris, Miles Bridges, etc”
“Chuck Martin – Trying to close the deal on Brian Bowen for Indiana. I told him if we can work together and if he can push for us to get (Hoosiers) Thomas Bryant and OG Anunoby two projected first rounders from IU this year we can work something out.”
Oh I read it but it doesn’t say IU proposed that deal. Dawkins did. Doesn’t say anything about IU responding
Did you read the article? Here it is again, one of your former assistant coaches.
“Chuck Martin – Trying to close the deal on Brian Bowen for Indiana. I told him if we can work together and if he can push for us to get (Hoosiers) Thomas Bryant and OG Anunoby two projected first rounders from IU this year we can work something out.”
That's fvcking shady shit. So, yeah, we kind of have an idea of what Indiana was doing.
Yeah that's how I read it. I don't like Indiana getting mentioned for sure, and any power 5 caught up somehow wouldn't surprise me. This bit of info alone does not implicate Indiana under Tom Crean.
I mean seriously, I dont think its an exaggeration to think many of the contenders this year might get banned from the tournament.
The one thing working for them is time. NCAA may not have time to investigate and ban before the tournament(nor does it make business sense todo that)

That’s your opinion. Purdue could be a bubble team, they could be a tournament team, or they could be worse. But with a front runner for BPOY, I like our chances.
I think you’ll see the firings and suspended players first before bans by the NCAA
He’ll be one of the front runners for BTPOY, but Morgan will be right up there too. The only difference is we have a better supporting cast, don’t lose as much and bring in a better recruiting class and that’s before Romeo decides (one way or another). You guys lose most of your scoring and four senior starters. I wouldnt be real optimistic if I were you.
Honestly are we readying the same thing? What are you talking about?
His fingers and toes are crossed hoping Martin said something, well, anything bad. Lol.
Didn't even think once about Indiana being implicated until I read the article and yes I got somewhat of an orgasm thinking Indiana could go down with the rest of the college basketball slime. If your rival was cheating you'd like to see them go down in flames too.
