(This meant to go up Saturday, but we were late).
Purdue has done well with Mr. Basketball. it took a while to get one after Glenn Robinson, but Caleb Swanigan had a successful Purdue career as the top player in Indiana. Now we get another Mr. Basketball from the same town.
Caleb Furst - Fr.
Ft. Wayne, IN (Blackhawk Christian HS)
6’10”, 230 pounds
Forward
2021-22 Projection: Potential Starter
Any time you can have a player of the caliber of Furst and not need him to play a lot as a freshman is a tremendous luxury.
