The Purdue men's basketball program is finalizing an agreement to play a game against Illinois State during the upcoming season. The two teams would meet in West Lafayette, but a date was not mentioned at the time of the report. Illinois State finished with a 23-13 record and placed third in the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) last season. Purdue coach Matt Painter has a history of scheduling high-quality mid-major opponents during the non-conference portion of the season. Ethan Morton, a former Purdue guard, would return to Mackey Arena if the scheduling agreement is reached. Morton spent his final year of eligibility at Colorado State and is currently on the Illinois State men's basketball staff.
