Purdue and the Indiana All-Stars
Purdue and the Indiana All-Stars
One of the greatest honors an Indiana high school basketball player can achieve is to be named to the Indiana All-Star Team following their senior year, becoming part of one of the most revered traditions in a state obsessed with basketball.

Each year, the 13 top outgoing seniors in the state are chosen to don the red, white and blue in Indiana's annual two-game series with Kentucky, a rivalry the Hoosier State has owned to the tune of an all-time record of 79-42 heading into the 2009 games.
Through the years, more than a hundred players who'd go on to Purdue have been part of the series.
Below is a look at Purdue's history with the Indiana All-Stars.

Purdue set a school record for All-Stars in a single season in 2007, when it signed four with its blockbuster recruiting class of Valparaiso's Robbie Hummel and Scott Martin, Indianapolis' JaJuan Johnson and East Chicago's E'Twaun Moore.
Purdue also had four 2010 All-Stars with signees Terone Johnson and Travis Carroll, walk-on Neal Beshears and eventual signee Donnie Hale.
Three of Purdue's current coaches were Indiana All-Stars.
Coach Matt Painter made the team after his senior year at Muncie Delta in 1989; assistant coach Jack Owens - a point guard from Indianapolis Washington headed to play for Painter at Eastern Illinois - was named to the team in '95; Brandon Brantley
The fathers of two Purdue 2009 signees - Jeff Robinson and Kelsey Barlow were all-stars in back-to-back years.
Jeff Robinson Sr. of Broad Ripple was named to the team in 1981; Ken Barlow of Cathedral followed in 1982.
Purdue has signed 10 Mr. Basketball winners, its last being Glenn Robinson in 1994.
