Amen! I don't care if Purdue sweeps us every year, as long as we are competing for National Titles or deep runs often

If Woody is what I hope he is, Smith wouldn't see any playing time due to superior talent in front of him...

He jumped on that offer fast! He is either a Purdue fan or knew that's the best he was going to get.

I'm pretty certain its him. That guy has a very distinct nose. Same nose as the original pic... Justice would be letting 3 dads do what needs to be done. Having two daughters and a granddaughter, I can't imagine the rage and pain these people are going through. I don't think my soul would ever be at peace until I got him myself. Heartbreaking

The problem is it spreads even after you take the vaccine, and it is going to have variants regardless. Just like the flu and flu shots... we are chasing this thing down a deep rabbit hole I'm afraid.

I think he looks a lot like the original sketch... Hopefully they finally have their guy

I'm not sure about NY, but I know for a fact if you tried to force staff to get vaccinated here. You wouldn't have a business for long... we can barely get people to work as is... our local fast food joints are always apologizing on social media for lack of staff. Or they close early, or out of the blue, middle of the day

I have personally never seen Smith play. How does he match up against high level D1 kids when they play each other? I understand some of your frustration. When Nic Moore was at Warsaw, I never saw him get outplayed. I always felt like he was the best player on the floor. Better than Deshaun Thomas or any of the North Central kids he played against at state.. I was in the house when he dropped 50 on one of Painters kids, while Painter was present. It blew my mind that Purdue never offered

Banks reminds me of Jerome Hunter a lot. Game and manorisms.

I definitely want this kid. Nothing against Smith, but this guy is oozing talent

Trimble, Washington, Clowney,Gunn... I could live with that

I don't disagree with you. Just pointing out that physical limitations weigh into recruiting. Nic Moore played here at Warsaw and was phenomenal. I think he could have played just about anywhere in college, but his height kept the power houses away

How much better can Smith get? How much better can Lander get? A lot of this recruiting stuff is just like the NBA, based on potential...

Not saying they aren't. But there are a few who would get spot minutes at best on a top 3 team in the BIG. Just my opinion, but Woody and Fife both know what a National caliber team looks like. To get to that level, we need to make some hard realistic decisions on the front end of this thing. Again, I would be fine keeping everyone we have. I also think Woody will push harder due to his age. I would want to reap the rewards of my efforts, instead of build it slowly and hand it off to the younger guy... but that's just me

Sounds like Woody is not content. Man was brought here to do a job, and hard decisions are going to be made. Some of which, people may not agree with at first. I would be happy with the current roster as is, but I also realize there are a few players that just aren't good enough
