• 0:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: Welcome back, Boehler, Maker fans, to the Central Indian Sports Report for this week's Purdue Report with Jake Dunn.
• 0:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: Jake here today to talk some Purdue basketball, of course.
• 0:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: And a little bit of Purdue football with the portal opening,
• 0:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: We have some updates, Jake, what do you go ahead and start it's often?
• 0:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: Welcome back.
• 0:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: Thanks for having me as always.
• 0:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: For these who've been fairly active in the portal here, they've seen about 23 players announced their intention to leave Purdue in the portal, most of the
• 0:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: departures were depth pieces, so they weren't necessarily stars, but Purdue did see a few departures that I think probably like to probably would have liked to really retain some of the biggest ones.
• 1:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: Starting center, Brad and Joiner, that was a pretty recent development here of the past day or two, he ascends committed to Florida State Hank Purvis, we've talked about him, he started a little bit on the offensive line, he's committed to South Carolina.
• 1:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: We've talked about Nitro Tuggle.
• 1:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: He has visits lined up to South Carolina as well and Vanderbilt.
• 1:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: He is yet to make a decision.
• 1:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: Malkai Singleton now and didn't necessarily her as bad, but he has made a decision.
• 1:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: He will be attending Appalachian State next year.
• 1:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 1:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: The other really kind of big one was Chop's Harclis.
• 1:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: He and former high school team to meet your Kennedy, both in our deporal, to meet your Kennedy, is committed to Louisville, child's harvest as yet to commit anywhere.
• 1:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: But some of the biggest by position groups here, even five offensive linemen in our deporal, that's someone expected with the firing of advance of ice, former offensive wine coach for Purdue.
• 2:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: Expecting to see some turnover there,
• 2:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: And a few receivers have been kind of a main, main positions that have entered into the portal.
• 2:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: So if I said about 23 enter the portal, Purdue is now with some recent commitments here, is now up to seven commits here to through the portal to Purdue.
• 2:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I lighted here by Texas
• 2:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think it was, yeah, it would be a good one.
• 2:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: You really kind of start here at Texas the on three rankings give him an 89.47 ranking for as a transfer.
• 2:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: So somebody who I think is is poised to be the, you know, running back number one.
• 3:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: So he'll be bat one element played four games here for Texas and decided to register
• 3:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: pretty as some good size kind of reminds me of the D. J. Knox for those of you that remember D. J. Knox, a guy who can have some power to him.
• 3:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's not not the fastest, but as got good sizing and good strength.
• 3:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: So he does have a little bit of a fun-blowing problem.
• 3:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's something that I'm sure, a coaching staff will work on here at Purdue.
• 3:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: Probably the next biggest group from the the portal.
• 3:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: Michigan, that was a pretty big get on three, ranked seven, eighty, seven, point nine, four, and transfer board ranking.
• 3:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: So, guy who has experience in the power to level, just like Jared Gibson, and probably, who's guessed some other guys in the portal here that have played at the power to level.
• 4:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: I've got a couple of offensive linemen from USC.
• 4:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: You know, just for we will live here,
• 4:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: more of a depth piece of Penn State, but it's kind of poised to take over, you know, some minutes here from Mani Pal, and then, you know, not necessarily a portal, you know, a crew from a portal, but a, but a win in the portal world that we're now Purdue was able to retain Charles Correa, so he was kind of a nice tandem with Mani Pal.
• 4:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: but Charles Carrad did decide to stay.
• 4:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: So that was a good news that broke here earlier today.
• 4:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: So so far, I think I think produced doing pretty well here on the portal on three, has them ranked currently ninth in the nation and the portal ranking.
• 4:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: So those rankings look at people who have left and people that they've brought in.
• 5:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: So according to on three rankings,
• 5:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: You know, level of player that that has trained for doubt of Purdue has been ranking the score of 63.45 and the average score of the people that produce brought in has been 70.29.
• 5:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: So a good increase there looks like Purdue's doing fairly well so far and I'm sure that'll continue hopefully I'll continue to rise here and we'll get the rest of the roster filled out here over the next
• 5:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: like the plurals open for another six days or so.
• 5:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I'm sure we'll see some more movement there.
• 5:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: So far, coming off of the season Purdue had last year, I think it kind of off to a fairly good start so far.
• 5:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: A long way to go, but pretty good couple of days.
• 5:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: For sure, definitely have a long way to go so, but the so far Purdue's been getting better guys and the guys that they've lost for the most part, some of those guys are gonna be hard to,
• 6:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: hard to, you know, get back or you know, hard to replace their their value, but they're getting better, you know, and the depth positions, which that obviously is going to help the team here, especially with injuries as you progress throughout the season.
• 6:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: So so far, it's a look, look and look and like a nice class so far here.
• 6:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: Jake today I was looking at the brachatology on ESPN they have Purdue as a number two seed in the East with Connecticut.
• 6:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: The number one that would probably be does not a scenario I want let's just stay in the Midwest and
• 6:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: and play in St. Louis in order to do that.
• 6:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: You got to win games like the next three.
• 6:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: You got Washington at home, Penn State at home, Iowa at home, three games in a calendar week at McEar Arena.
• 7:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: Of course, I was ranked 19th.
• 7:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: So that's a pretty good team, but should be three and oh, if you're a team, it wasn't the number one team.
• 7:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: I definitely need to be a three-note bear.
• 7:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: Washington and Penn State, I do not want to write them off, but they are pretty similar to the opponents that produce played here, not great teams, but they're good enough to wear.
• 7:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: Anybody of the big kids good enough to wear, they can be shot on any different night.
• 7:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I think being a good test gets Iowa here later in the week, but so far, the
• 7:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: with both Washington and Penn State.
• 7:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: ESPN analytics, which I like to reference has Purdue with a 92% chance to win the game tonight.
• 7:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: Wednesday night.
• 7:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think it's right up there with the ESPN analytics in terms of the percentage of wanting to game.
• 8:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: I've seen a little bit of Washington watch a little bit
• 8:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: They've got talent.
• 8:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: They just can't really put it together.
• 8:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's kind of what I gathered from there.
• 8:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: They've got a freshman from Germany and the Big Ten Broadcast mentioned that as connections with Dirk Nguitzky.
• 8:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: So he's a good player.
• 8:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm sure he'll probably make his way to the NBA here in the next year or two.
• 8:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: Haynes Steinbach is his name.
• 8:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: So he's a really good player.
• 8:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: 11.8 rebounds and two assists and a block in a steal, essentially.
• 8:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: So pretty good overall player, Washington's got some other players on their team that pretty fairly familiar with, but I think he will be the biggest kind of point of contention here.
• 9:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously these games are about winning the games, but at this point in the season building that
• 9:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: as we head into the big 10 here.
• 9:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: From a defensive standpoint, I don't think Washington's defense is good enough to really stop Purdue.
• 9:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: Purdue does have a little bit of familiarity like in the general year with Desmond Claude.
• 9:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: He was a transfer from USC, he gave Purdue some trouble in the big 10 terminal last year.
• 9:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: Zoom Diallo is a highly talented freshman
• 9:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: played at Washington last year.
• 9:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's now sophomore.
• 9:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: And then they had a guy from Gary, actually, a Camari Peterson.
• 9:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's a guard senior from Gary, served his his journey in the United States.
• 9:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: So he's a guy that I'm sure will be looking to kind of go off here against Purdue.
• 9:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: And then finally, if we have any IU listeners here, Bryson Tucker, he was on IU last year,
• 10:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: where he's now a sophomore.
• 10:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: I guess I play timing inside you and but look look decent.
• 10:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: So definitely have some talent to guess of players, but I think offensively they're not horrible.
• 10:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think produced kind of overpowers and me.
• 10:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: All right, I don't think there's really I don't think it would be much of a game.
• 10:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't mean there wouldn't a matter of where it was played.
• 10:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: I wouldn't have been a big much of a game.
• 10:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: But
• 10:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: We'll see that.
• 10:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: I guess that's why they play in Jake and then on Saturday to a clock on the big 10 network nine and six Penn State O and four in the big 10, he has been analytics 97% chance that Purdue will win that game.
• 10:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: And if Penn states not the worst team in the big 10, they're one of the worst, but the last couple of weeks, they've been competitive with Illinois and Michigan.
• 11:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: they have, I'd be lying to you if I can name, you know, if I told you I can name one player on Penn State's roster, I'm looking at it right now and not a single name really rings up out here.
• 11:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: So, I'm kind of really telling you much about them to be honest, but shouldn't be, shouldn't really be much of a factor.
• 11:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: I watched a little bit of them out when they played Michigan State earlier in the season.
• 11:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's been a while ago, a little some month ago, actually, Washington play, they play Michigan State close, you mentioned, they played Illinois close, and it's lost by two to Michigan tonight.
• 11:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: So clearly, they can play with the best of them.
• 11:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: It looks like they get up for big games, but hopefully with this one being app or new, Purdue can have their way with them and be able to get a pretty easy look.
• 12:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: They started the season eight and one and then I U beat him by 30 points.
• 12:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: Since then, they've been pretty good.
• 12:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: Four point losses you mentioned to Michigan State.
• 12:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: Then they were blown out by pit, but just an eight point loss to Illinois.
• 12:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: Then tonight, I have not seen what happened in the game yet.
• 12:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: Michigan had a nine point lead at a half time, but that's pretty impressive for them.
• 12:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: So maybe don't take them too lightly.
• 12:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: this one being at at Mac you read out.
• 12:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: I got to feel pretty good about this one cell.
• 12:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'd probably agree with those ESPN and the one that's there.
• 12:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: Seems like a good chance for Braden Smith to continue his run at Bobby Hurley and a chance to see some guys get some bigger minutes.
• 12:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: All right, Jake, that's another Purdue report in the books so sad that it's over, but we'll be back to talk about another Purdue victory over the Washington Husky's.
• 13:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: She'd be a pretty pretty good one year.
• 13:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: I've been a pretty Purdue winning by 25.
• 13:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'll take the end or I'll say something like 17, but I won't be surprised if they run away with it.
• 13:19
