Purdue already has one McDonald's All-American from the class of 2015. Why not get a second? It appears that coach painter and Co. may be after Malik Newman, a transfer from Mississippi State that is on the market:
Eleven of those schools play in Power 5 conference, including one in the Southeastern Conference. Vanderbilt is the only conference foe to inquire about Newman, joining Kansas, Purdue, Georgia Tech, Arizona, North Carolina State, Arizona State, Miami, TCU, Iowa State and Oregon.
Butler, Western Kentucky, Colorado State, Louisiana-Lafayette and Cal State Northridge have also shown interest.
