Purdue currently has just one player committed in the 2026 class — Rico Schrieber, a 6-foot-7, 315-pound offensive lineman out of Chicago. He became the first player to pledge, making his announcement back in early February.
The 2026 recruiting class will be the first full class under new coach Barry Odom and his staff.
