GoldandBlack.com's Saturday Simulcast: Purdue football, basketball and more

In our July 20, 2024 edition, GoldandBlack.com football expert Tom Dienhart breaks down Purdue football and his preparation for next Tuesday’s Big Ten Media Day Also, Brian Neubert and host Alan Karpick talk men’s basketball recruiting and what will be some of the challenges for the Boilermakers’ 2024-25 season.

More on Purdue Men’s Basketball Recruiting visits (BO excerpt)

Sisley is coming Sept. 6-8 for his official visit. Our expectation is that Antione West comes the 13-15. The moving parts at forward are considerable.

Purdue is likely at the moment we think to get Khamenia, Sebastian Williams-Adams and Singleton. When, we don’t know, but that second weekend would make a lot of sense for one of ’em. (It’s weird to bring in two players at the same position the same weekend.)

It’s possible new names come to the forefront, too. Purdue has been watching and recruiting Kruz McClure from the Columbus area. He’s gotten a bunch of offers since Rock Hill.

If Sisley remains uncommitted after his visit weekend, then the door is wide open for someone else to come in and take the spot potentially. All four of these offers are live, but it’s a safe assumption that no one’s going to commit without visiting. Sisley is the only one of the four to have done so.
