Purdue Basketball: The Resurgence of Eric Hunter Jr.

Eric Hunter Jr. is in the midst of a roller coaster career at Purdue. The former 4* guard out of Tindley Prep in Indianapolis has played multiple roles for the Boilermakers over the last 4 seasons. He came to Purdue with a well earned reputation as a scorer. He ended his prep career as the all-time leading in Marion County (which includes Indianapolis (for any of my non-Indianacentric readers) and is 7th on the all-time scoring list for the state of Indiana (which I’m told knows a little something about high school basketball). The lanky (6’4”), rail thin (175), lefty came in as a scorer, but hasn’t been able to find the scoring success he enjoyed in high school, but he’s found other ways to help the Boilermakers.
