The language in the release is fairly definitive as it notes that Harrms “finished his career” in fourth in blocked shots. It’s a tough blow to the team but it is a move that makes sense from Haarms perspective as he saw his numbers and minutes decrease as the season wore on with the rise of Trevion Williams. Haarms will always be a part of the Purdue family and we are incredibly sad to see him go.
Much more to come on this as to how it pertains to the 2020-2021 men’s basketball team. Keep an eye on this website for more analysis.
