Purdue gets commitment from 2026 Tennessee CB Zyntreacs Otey
Purdue has added a second commitment to its 2026 class, netting a pledge from Battle Ground Academy (Franklin, Tenn.) CB Zyntreacs Otey on Monday.
The 5-11, 165-Otey visited Purdue unofficially in July, having been to campus numerous other times. The On3 three-star prospect–who has reclassified from the Class of 2027–picked the Boilermakers over offers from the likes of Georgia Tech, Arkansas, Kentucky, Memphis and Western Kentucky, among others.
