Ty Hudkins - Fr.
Grand Rapids, MI - Forest Hills Central
5'11, 197 pounds
Defensive Back
2024 Projection: Likely Redshirt
Hudkins had a great senior season last year, and as a safety he looks like he could be a good fit within Purdue's defensive scheme. He helped his team to a state campionship in his senior season last year with a monster game in the title game. On defense he had three tackles and an interception while grabbing six catches for 115 yards and a TD on offense. He finished the year with 98 tackles and five interceptions while being named Michigan Player of the Year for divisions three and four by the AP.
The biggest limitation to Hudkins seeing the field is likely Dillon Thieneman. They share a similar position and playing style, thus making it touch for Hudkins to overcome him. Still, he is a good pickup for the future.
