We’ve gotten through the returning players for 2021-22 and the walk-ons played such limited minutes that it is hard to see any fo them becoming major contributors like Grady Eifert or Bobby Buckets. Purdue’s walk-ons played in only two games last season: Oakland and at Penn State. Collectively they got 17 minutes, most of which came in the blowout against Oakland. They scored a combined nine points led by 5 from Matt Frost. Their role is simple: be consistent practice players to get everyone else ready and to come in and splash threes in blowouts.
Purdue’s three incoming freshmen have their own homework.
