Purdue now has its punter. Former Washington and Nebraska punter Jack McCallister announced his commitment to the Boilermakers on Tuesday afternoon, which comes on the heels of a visit to West Lafayette over the weekend.
McCallister began his career at Washington, where he spent three years as the team's starter at the position. He had his best year as a redshirt junior in 2024, punting 42 times for an average of 43.0 yards, which was a career-high. He also had nine punts of 50+ yards and pinned 15 punts inside the opponent 20-yard line, both of which were career-best marks as well.
McCallister transferred to Nebraska earlier this off-season, but after spending the spring in Lincoln, he re-entered the portal and has now landed at Purdue with special teams coordinator James Shibest.
