IU needs Kopp to help them next year lol. Purdue doesn’t need Waddell for a few years. Was fun watching him dunk on Gunn in the state championship game.

Trimble is from Milwaukee area. JP Tokoto's brother. Good athlete. Needs skills improvement.
I don’t bother with condom much but I do wonder why Gillis hasn’t entered the portal yet? My hairdresser’s third cousin’s 2nd husband said he would be leaving Purdue.
I go with the pull out method as well
Who made fun of the Kopp addition? I’m just making fun of IU fans getting hyped in general. Can’t wait to see the next regime crash & burn to expectations.
Uhhhhh...typing some numbers in and using the divide function...advanced?
It’s a good thing Kopp is 10x the player Waddell will ever be. Congrats on beating out Loyola for his services though.
I haven’t once bragged about Gunn. I don’t think he’s that great of a player tbh. We will see if he ever makes it to campus.
How is all of your guy’s day going? Going fine in illini land. We are just losing our top 2 assistants.
At least a couple people here, and there’s an entire thread about it on your board.
Who did you beat out to land weatherford? Isaiah Thompson?
Who did we beat out to land Priller? Jeremiah April?
I think it’s safe to say Kopp scores 10x more points in his college career than Waddell will at Purdue. I don’t think Waddell will stay at Purdue his whole career though.
people are making fun of IU fans getting excited over shit like this, not Kopp himself. & saying Kopp will be 10x the player Waddell will ever be is exactly the type of reason for that. Delusional man.
Too funny, I looked for the gif first and couldn’t find one....so decided to edit my post and link to this too. Great (?) minds...
Can tell you're a nice guy. I made a spreadsheet for each team that had each of its seasons and a bunch of "COUNTIF" functions for things like Final Fours, 20-win seasons, conference championships, etc. and then used pivot tables to try to organize the data and come up with a points system, which I am still working on. Just thought I would share the winning percentages.
What exactly are the expectations of IU fans that seem out of place? I haven’t seen a single prediction made on how well IU will do next year, or under Woodson in general. He’s killing it in recruiting and the staff he put together is outstanding, but we all know success on the court is all that matters.
It is my opinion that Waddell’s Purdue career will be similar to Weatherford or Dowana. He will ultimately be in the 22 class after redshirt, and you already have a better token white shooter in that class.
Got any in mind? I think we hire Tre Mitchell’s soon to be stepdad as 1 of the coaches.
I was kind of surprised and disappointed by this. I mean, obviously UK is the crown jewel destination in college basketball, but what OA is accomplishing recruiting-wise at Illinois is more impressive than getting talent to Kentucky, and it's not like he's on the first linear progression of his coaching career. If I am OA at a program that is at least as competitive as Illinois has been the last couple seasons (an accomplishment partly because of him and something he helped build), I would have stayed until I got a head coaching job. I know he has former ties to UK, but damn. I sure as hell hope this wasn't about us not opening up the savings account.
Every IU coach kills it in recruiting lmao. Newsflash I know but losing Armaan franklin is a lot worse than bringing in Kopp/Bates. And sure, he could be like one of those 2. Or he could be a contributor down the road like Stefanovic/Cline/Ryne Smith, etc. were. Painter liked him enough to offer him. It’s not like he’s a must-have recruit.
Just hire multiple irvin’s, in all seriousness what is Calipari doing, he really thinks recruiting is his issue? I don’t get why uk fans are so excited, calipari needs an offensive guru not more bagmen.
Players expected to leave that he convinced to stay:
TJD
Lander
Race
Stewart
Geronimo
Transfer he acquired:
Xavier Johnson (top 10 transfer)
Miller Kopp
Recruits retained:
Duncomb
Gunn
New Recruits:
Tamar Bates (borderline 5*)
But he did stay in a Holiday Inn Express on his visit to IU.
Players expected to leave. Are you fvcking serious? Homo
Bragging about keeping players from a 12-15 team as recruiting wins is a bold strategy.
You forgot to add Xavier Johnson to Kopp/Bates. And I’ll take Bates over Armaan every day.
Lol not close. Parker Stewart would still be the best shooter on the team.
GFYS. He got a borderline 5*, a top 10 transfer, another high level transfer, and kept our two recruits in the last two weeks.
So convincing an All-American to stay that was expected to leave isn’t a recruiting win?
What list are you pulling this top 10 transfer from? And Koop isn’t high level, he averages less than 10 points a game.
I guess if you wanna give Woodson props for telling TJD that he’s not good enough to get drafted so he should come back so be it. But no I wouldn’t call that a recruiting win when the dude’s already on the team.
