Dowd revealed the backstory. Painter brought in the sixth recruit because he sensed Catchings would flake out. "Things have a way of working out," meant I don't trust Kanon is going to commit to our "Team First" philosophy. He appeared to be the complete opposite of Mason Gillis.
It seems like a big hit to those on the outside but all and all clarifies that Catchings is NOT a program guy. This probably saves the locker room and culture that Painter has sustained thus far. I feel it has more to do with Heide turning a corner as a playmaker Offensively as the season went on.
You are forgetting about Waddell. He is 6-8 and has the potential to be a stud. Hopefully CMP gives him a fair shot at PT this year. So Catchings leaving might be a blessing in disguise
I doubt he was going to beat out Heide or Colvin. 2 years in the system (and weight room) vs true frosh that's skinny as hell and hasn't played defense to date. Next man up.
Good riddance, don't need a me guy on the team. Heard he had attitude problems anyway. Disrespecting elders and cussing refs. Mom was hoping Matt could make a man of him.
I'm bummed, but I'm happy Painter doesn't play favorites. It wouldn't be fair to the rest of the team and would set a bad tone for the program giving into demands.
I didn’t freak out when Gibbs de commit (ovb wasnt as high and more details known) I’m not gonna freak out here. COLVEN is deserving of proving himself. I’m basically saying that when they leave like this they were never a fit for us to begin with.
2 NBA players? Jaden Ivey is the only Purdue player in the league right now & Detroit is trying to shop him due to poor performance. Trevion is playing in Europe, Carsen Edward's is playing overseas too. Edey hasn't been drafted yet so...who's the other? I knew Catchings wasn't ever gonna go to Purdue but its been like 3 years since his commitment so I really thought he was serious. He was just too high of a star to go to Purdue cause 3 stars is the absolute max Painter will ever go. Its like some voodoo gypsy put a curse on him that makes it impossible to recruit athletic NBA level kids. The talent level from last season to this up & coming season is as vast as vast could be & that's honestly terrifying. UConn should've been a massive red flag that Purdue NEEDS an athletic NBA lottery pick scorer to especially now that they have Fletcher as their best scorer...love the kid but he's NEVER gonna lead a national championship team as the #1 guy. Smith is a true point guard but I seriously have concerns now that he doesn't have a behemoth of a man to pass to. Most were almost comically easy cause their is a huge window Braden has to pass it that ONLY Edey could catch. Colvin and Heide now have a massive amount of pressure & opportunity as well. I would've put all my money on Colvin being the transfer/decomit during the season.
Typical little brother attitude. If someone decides to take a new job because they think it's best for him/his family, normal people wish him well. If a Purdue recruit leaves, the Purdue mentality is to take offense at it. LOL. Boiler DOWN. WAY DOWN.
It sounds like he’s headed to BYU. That’s a great university with an amazing fanbase.
Thanks for the update and analysis. This went down the morning I was heading back to God's Country.
How did this not get discuss before he arrived on campus?
I’m a hugh Purdue fan but not a CMP fan but this was the correct decision. Never keep a player or woman that doesn’t want to be kept

had one conversation with Painter over the last Year and that was last evening. Loved the staff and the University
I am so thankful for Elite North Carolina.
then maybe have the actual conversation before "committing" then...

Waddell ain’t gonna be a factor until he’s a 5th year senior lol
I’m not sure this is gonna happen… but time will tell
Good news is, were missing out on a 1year guy.
I doubt he was going to beat out Heide or Colvin. 2 years in the system (and weight room) vs true frosh that's skinny as hell and hasn't played defense to date.
Next man up.
your counting on a lot for the no. 43rd recruiting class to come in and pick up Edey scoring.
Purdue an historical mediocre program.
why did you let Gillis go?

I will screenshot this post. Don’t be a stranger once the season starts

He signed...DGL decommitted from a verbal...and he's a better player.
very upset about this news. I was looking foward to seeing this kid play. hes so talented. damn this sucks
Some players are gonna have to grow. Loyer and Colvin need to hit the weight room
already reports about Colvin working the weights.
Colvin has clearly been lifting
Colvin already looks stronger...more defined
More minutes for Colvin.
Kanon was never on campus period!
And your source?
@@seanrabe8598 he is my son
@@MrFrytmhe met with painter last night and didn’t get the guaranteed minutes he wanted
@@prestonfranklin3046 he was home with us last night and did not meet with Paint.
He signed a one year contract. Painter let him out of it.
Total suckage. But dude was a weird recruitment situation from day 1
The weird swoon a year ago was foreshadowing
I’m not as upset as most people. Actually like this for Purdue. Obviously woulda been a fun player but how much would he have helped

You don't think Edey is gonna make it in the league? C'mon.

Only the loud mouths take offense. Most of us will just move on. Or are you just here to badmouth Purdue?
You're cute. Thanks for spending time with us today.
