It’s not often a true freshman steps onto campus with the chance to change what you think about a position. 6’6” and 220 lb point guard Nojel Eastern is one of those players.
If the World University Games were useful for anything, it allowed us to see how Nojel Eastern can change the game. The freshman is going to turn the ball over a lot this year. That’s just the truth of being a freshman. But when he’s not turning the ball over, Eastern showed flashes of being the kind of game changer Purdue fans have been salivating over for years.
