The early signing period for basketball is November 9th. Will Purdue have a 2017 basketball commitment by then? It appears that the days of committing to schools as sophomores like Rapheal Davis are long gone. With this class in particular we are waiting until early signing day to get anyone. Given that the 2016 class was a one-member class, it has been a long, long wait for commitments going back to when Caleb Swanigan came on board.
First, the bad news: Purdue is already out on Paul Scruggs, Kris Wilkes, and Malik Williams as the absolute top guys in the state.
