I have a hard time faulting him for choosing Purdue

Jaden grew up in a small town, college bubble where his mom is a local celebrity. Unless he blossomed into a real star, it would have been hard for him to ever obtain his own unique identity. In this regard, he is not similarly situated to Skylar Diggins or Demetrius Jackson. Although maybe not as high profile of recruits, Mike Brey's son (presumably a walk on caliber player) and Greg Mattison's son made similar situations. Mario Lucia didn't want to play for his dad. I don't think Jaden's decision is unusual.
