It’s amazing people don’t understand this.Who cares about portal rankings? It’s about fit.
If we got him, it is like we traded Malik for Pack.as I couldn't find him in portal listings?
I have him rated as #9 on my rankingsas I couldn't find him in portal listings?
He's not eligible currently. Needs to be cleared for a medical RS. Which is why he's probably not in any ranking.#1. In my heart.
Copy that. Don’t doubt this for a second!He's not eligible currently. Needs to be cleared for a medical RS. Which is why he's probably not in any ranking.
Signing him while not eligible could possibly drive other starter level PG away, with a chance he gets denied. It would be prudent to not make any type of commit until he is cleared.
Kelly32 and Ulrey.... I merely asked a question. Does it make you feel superior to by acting like I don't know how important fits are to a team? I was looking and couldn't find his rating is why I asked. Thank you fromtheburchs for asking my very simple question. Sorry there has to be some on here that can do nothing but toss out their spiel. I really like this site. Sad some of these have to interject in this way.Who cares about portal rankings? It’s about fit.

Tied for 26th in mine. Just edged out that one guy who is 27th.I have him rated as #9 on my rankings
Yes.He has started 121 of 122 games and has over 1700 points averaging over 32 mpg, with a career 3pfg% of 40%, and a 3.3 assist/TO ratio. 1.3 TPG last year.
He would be a 6th year senior starter. I don't know, does that sound valuable to you?
On Torviks page he’s currently #2 out of the current transfers in portal. Reed Bailey was 10. This list changes as transfers commit.as I couldn't find him in portal listings?

He was on the team that beat IU a few years ago wasn't he?? They had that really good guard whose name escapes me right now.I like him a lot. Very likely to get another year as he only played 8 games early in the year.
He's never been a big assist guy but he's steadily gotten better. In 2023-24 he averaged 5.6 assists v. 1.7 TOs for every 40M played....for his career it's 1.8 to 1 but has been improving. He also averaged 3.9 rebs for every 40M played in 2023-24, which isn't bad at all for a 6'0" guy.
Downsides---Probably extremely expensive, but we're not paying it, right. Only a 1 year guy. And only 6'0" and not known to be a defender. Also, can he be 100% after his injury?
May be wrong on this, but seems like a pretty good guy and teammate. Purdue wanted him, which says a lot.
Other issue---one 6'0" guard and one 6'1", both for only one season. And I like the Lewis decommit kid as a possible recruit. I believe he's 6'1". So 3 short PGs on 1 team, potentially. Not ideal, but we'll be a mix and march team next year whatever we do.
Whatever the downsides, if he's back 100% I'd love to see him here next year. It would bring a lot of excitement and interest for the program.
