The Purdue Boilermakers had a solid NCAA Tournament run. They entered as the No. 4 seed in the Midwest Region and defeated No. 13 High Point in the first round and No. 12 McNeese in the second round. Unfortunately for them, though, after a hard-fought game, they narrowly fell to the No. 1 Houston Cougars 62-60 in the Sweet 16.

The transfer portal opens Monday, and Matt Painter expects Purdue to be active. But he also has a NCAA Tournament team to coach. PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Purdue basketball coach Matt Painter often talks about a player's ability to put an opponent "in a bind."

Purdue’s fourth, and maybe most disappointing, transfer portal entry came Tuesday, as junior-to-be forward Camden Heide made himself available. He joins Myles Colvin, Will Berg and Brian Waddell in the portal.

Horizon League selection, Jalen Jackson averaged 19.2 points per game at Purdue Fort Wayne and previously played at Illinois-Chicago.

Purdue sophomore wing Myles Colvin has reportedly entered his name into the NCAA transfer portal, becoming the third Boilermaker to do so this offseason.

Former Tennessee State linebacker Sanders Ellis committed to the Boilermakers on Monday. The FCS Football Central freshman All-American retains three years of eligibility after playing one season for the FCS program.

Cluff averaged 17.6 points, 12.3 rebounds and 0.8 blocks for the Jackrabbits in his second season. He has one season of eligibility remaining after beginning his career at Cochise College, a junior college program in Douglas, Ariz., and playing one season at Washington State.
