Staff change, Jayla Smith enters transfer portal, Alaina Harper on why she stepped away and incoming freshman Avery Gordon earns a spot on Indiana All-Star team
The Portal— it’s always there looking-—so far we will be all right— Jala will be missed— I wish her well. The big hit this year is the REYNOLDS girl coming in.. —-We spend a lot of time and resources recruiting and she changed her mind— that is life and we will deal with it. This off season their will be changes and time keeps moving on— Too Fast— I know that KG is trying to change the roster— Bigger and Faster and more talented. After watching the NCAA games— everyone has a front line that can compete—we have 2 players that will only get better on the front line— McCarthy and Puryear— and they need some help. WE have some shooters on this team so if we can add the right players to complement them— it could be a game changer— so I am optimistic about the next season. The players that we get from the portal need to be game changers— Every coach is trying to do that so the competition for a player is great— so we will see where it goes—-In my book a player has to have (4) things—number—(1)— have the talent and skill set — (2)— be devoted— A 100 % ‘ER—and (3)— Be a team player and—(4)—love Purdue. —- If we can find a few of these they will lift the whole team up.— so— GO BOILERS !!
