We are all in for sure and for us to become a visit when we were not even on radar last week means something got him very interested. now, does anyone know how we fair with Adidas opposed to Louisville and Kansas. Would they favor us more? Or equal playing field and we fight it out? That is something I would never claim to have knowledge of (unlike social media and recruiting which I understand deeply 🤣) - considering we had 2 guys on a deal with them last year and they marketed well, that can’t hurt. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think the staff was fine with JG maybe staying for this exact role but he felt he could end up better. Might have miscalculated (that is purely my opinion fyi) Your first two sentences contradict each other haha... no worries though. JG isn't as good, the film shows that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t want to get into that again on here. Fully believe he is deeply looking at some options. We can debate on his thread but hard for me to follow all the sub threads. Hard to keep up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purdue7 Posted April 28, 2023 Report Share Posted April 28, 2023 42 minutes ago, Initial79 said: Possible… and this is where is gets fun. If he really only wanted to re-class we now have the ability to put pressure on people to decide. but if he wants to stay 2024 and get a shoe deal, then it would still be IU. He isn’t getting that at Purdue we will see but again, I think the amount of talent options should make many relax but I know some won’t until ink is dry. He may love IU💰👟 but the family loves MP & Purdue…..for now 😳 Shoe companies have been funneling cash through UK, KU, Duke, UNC…for 20? 30 years? pretty confident Purdue & IU didn’t play that dirty game Now IU is playing the NIL/Adidas game while MP refuses to join the 21st century its semi-pro basketball dressed up in nostalgia of the good old days 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why we have a shot with Mgbako and other people being debated in other threads haha what I don’t know is the question I posed. How much do they love us? Do they play favorites or … you get the same dollars at any of those 3. You chose. Then it is up to us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm not sure ol' Rees is totally grounded in reality as he raves about recent Illini get Oregon transfer Quincy Guerrier "Look for Guerrier to start from day one and be dominant for the Orange and Blue." Hey, Rees... Our Duck is bigger than yours 🙂 Maybe I ought to start writing puff pieces about IU under the pen name "Hershey Steelpecker." 😁 1 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
