Subject: Did Oscar Robertson attend Purdue before going to Cincinnati?

My brother, a member of the John Purdue Club, and I, a member of the Indiana University Varsity Club, are having a friendly argument and we need the help of fans of this message board and the Bearcats of Old to help resolve the difference of opinion.
Brother says Oscar Robertson attended Purdue -- but probably never enrolled -- prior to enrolling at the University of Cincinnati. My recollection is that Oscar never gave a second to going any place other that Cincinnati. His information came from a high school chum who claims to have roomed in the same dorm at Purdue that Oscar allegedly roomed in at the start of his freshman year.
Brother also claims that Cincinnati also lured Ron Bonham, another Hoosier legend, off of the Purdue campus a handful of years later.
Can anyone definitively resolve this disagreement.
Thanks in advance for your help.
