Question from a Purdue/SMU fan

[Grant Carter]

I really think a transfer makes sense for one of those 2 remaining scholarships. Graduate Senior maybe even better if he can shoot. But a sit-out transfer would add some needed maturity to the 2015-2016 team. A Graduate Senior gives the scholarship right back for big 2015 Class

I agree. If we do not get another high school senior then I think we will end up with both a graduating senior transfer and a player transferring after their freshman (ideal) or sophmore season who sits out. We already have a ton of scholarships available for 2015, I do not see them wanting to push even more into that one class.

They could push 1 into 2015 Class

Why would this kid even consider transferring to SMU with Nic Moore in hand and Mudiay enroute????

He probably wouldn't. But he'd play, probably even an upgrade to Nic Moore in a lot of ways if you can believe that, defensively he's better and he could put up bigger numbers if he wants. Not half the shooter but he'd have a spot, probably a starting spot.

OBF I may be biased but there's no comparison between Nic and Ronnie J. If he would come to SMU he'd have a hard time getting minutes. jmo

I didn't say they were comparable. I said Ronnie Johnson offers things he doesn't. And Purdue isn't exactly [deleted] basketball, any starter for them starts for 90% of the teams in the country. They just got beat up in conference play, did okay OOC. I think Nic is the better chance to win, but Ronnie would get minutes, he's a very good young guard.

What does he offer that Nic doesn't?

What does he offer that Nic doesn't?

Much better defender and more size. Better at getting to the rim.

From what I saw of Nic when he needed to go to the rim he did it.

As long as he doesn't have to go to the right.
