Matt Painter, who is from Indiana, likes to try to get the top recruits from the state, just as he has with most of his recruits since he's been at Purdue. It kind of holds the "hoosier" state's tradition together of the game of basketball. John Wooden, Glenn Robinson and Rick Mount all stayed in Indiana and chose Purdue. Three-fourth of the roster last season were players from the state. Question is, how important is it?

I think it's important not to see phenominal talent go outside of the state, and not to mention it is easier to keep phenominal talent in-state.

If we aren't talking great talent though, I dont agree with spending time trying to get the average in-stater on the team.
