Purdue is set to host a number of prospects on campus this weekend for visits. See who will be in West Lafayette in the coming days.
Festus, Missouri wide receiver Arhmad Branch is the first of two 2023 targets taking an official visit to West Lafayette this weekend. Branch picked up his first and only FBS offer from Ryan Walters and Cory Patterson last week.
Boiler Upload spoke to Branch after his offer. You can learn more about the Purdue target and what he said about the Boilermakers here.
2023 athlete Mondrell Dean earned a Purdue offer this week and the Boilermakers have move quickly. Dean will visit campus just a few days after receiving his second power five offer. The other was Cincinnati, who is currently in the AAC but will join the Big 12 on July 1st, 2023.
The Hurricane, West Virginia native also holds offers from Marshall, Miami (OH), Central Michigan, Toledo and Kent State among others.
Dean played both offense and defense in high school, but shined at defensive end. Last season, he racked up 139 total tackles, including 24 tackles for loss and 11 sacks. He was second in the state of West Virginia in both tackles and sacks.
As a running back, he rushed for 617 yards and 16 touchdowns while catching 11 passes for 191 yards and another score. On his Hudl profile, Dean is listed at 6-4 and 240 pounds.
Top 2024 in-state targets coming to West Lafayette:
One of the top prospects in the state of Indiana will visit Purdue, in Franklin Central cornerback Hudauri Hines. Hines went to both Toledo and Indiana last weekend before setting his Purdue visit on Sunday.
The 6-1 cornerback told Boiler Upload that he is looking to stay in Indiana for college and that Purdue has become an attractive destination for him. Hines is a name to watch as a potential commitment in the 2024 recruiting class.
2024 offensive lineman Jordan King becomes the second Fort Wayne North Side product to visit Purdue in as many weeks. Last weekend, four-star wide receiver
Brauntae Johnson was in West Lafayette.
King has become a high-priority target for offensive line coach Matt Mattox and the Boilermakers. The 6-5, 310 pound offensive guard has three offers, but each are power five schools in Indiana, Louisville and Purdue. The Hoosiers hosted him last weekend for a visit in Bloomington.
He is the top in-state offensive lineman target for the Boilermakers in next year's class and is another name to watch, alongside
Hudauri Hines.
Like Jordan King, 2024 wide receiver
Jo'Ziah Edmond is following a teammate's lead in visiting the Boilermakers. Edmond's Northwood teammate
NiTareon Tuggle was on campus last weekend.
Edmond is the fifth overall player in the state and a three-star prospect according to Rivals. His other power five offers have come from Baylor, Iowa State and Ole Miss along with other offers from Akron and Kent State.
See who else will be on campus this weekend. (This will be updated as Boiler Upload confirms visitors.)
