Purdue gets commitment from UNLV linebacker
Purdue has bolstered its linebacking unit by netting a pledge from UNLV’s Charles Correa on Monday night. He will have three years of eligibility after committing to the Boilermakers on Monday morning.
Correa is the second linebacker–and 18th player overall–added in the April portal window for Purdue, joining Tennessee State’s Sanders Ellis.
The 6-3, 230-pound Correa, a product of Bishop Gorman High in Las Vegas, played at UNLV for Barry Odom. Correa chose the Rebels over Arizona, Air Force, Nevada, Utah State, Hawai’i and Army.
