Former U. Recruit Winds Up at Purdue
And speaking of former Utes -- or at least, players formerly committed to join the Utes.

Remember Nemanja Calasan?

The 6-foot-9 Serbian power forward helped Midland Junior College to the national championship after committing to the Utes last season, but was released from his commitment after meeting with new coach Jim Boylen, who didn't think he fit the program well enough.

Well, Calasan has come out all right, having landed at Purdue University. He's part of a recruiting class that has been ranked among the top 10 nationally, and will join five other newcomers on a Boilermaker team that finished 22-12 last season after losing to eventual champion Florida in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
