On Saturday night I was surprised to find myself watching not one, but three possible future Purdue players. Since I regularly cover games for the Zionsville Times-Sentinel I am going to see Isaiah Thompson, the younger brother of P.J. Thompson, all season long. Tonight the freshman struggled, missing 10 of his first 11 shots, but he still had 15 fourth quarter points and 19 overall as Zionsville beat Marion 80-70.
On Marion, however, there are a pair of seniors that Purdue has at least shown an interest in, and that is who this post is about.
Vijay Blackmon - Blackmon is the younger brother of Indiana's James Blackmon and the son of Marion coach James Blackmon Sr.
