Purdue needs to keep adding to 2021, could he be next?

6’6”, 290 Pounds, Offensive Tackle

Corpus Christi, Texas

Class of 2021, 3*

Last night, Ty Buchanan Tweeted out his top 10 schools before his upcoming decision this fall.

Buchanan is a really athletic offensive tackle that will have a chance to be a day one starter at many of the schools that he listed in his top 10.

His best quality, in my opinion, is his frame. He already has a frame that fits the bill of a Big Ten offensive lineman and will have the chance to continue to get bigger and stronger, even thought he is already at 290 pounds.

Rivals has his him as a lock to Texas Tech, but we are still in the running. With a few of our coaches having ties to Texas, there could be an opportunity for us to sweep in and grab a solid prospect late in the game.

With Early Signing Day just at three months away, Purdue is still awaiting multiple decisions for the 2021 class, including local prospect Yanni Karlaftis.

Ty would be a fantastic commit for the 2021 class and a late addition.
