Purdue lands commitment from Missouri ATH Arhmad Branch
Purdue added a big injection of athletic ability to its growing Class of 2023 with a commitment on Sunday from Arhmad Branch, who could be a wideout or cornerback. Branch also is able to return kicks.
Branch took an official visit to West Lafayette this weekend. He can ink a letter-of-intent on February 1, when the second signing period begins. Purdue had 12 players from the Class of 2023 sign in the early period in December.

The 6-1, 175-pound three-star recruit came on to Purdue’s radar late. His head coach at Festus (Mo.) High–located roughly 30 minutes south of St. Louis–is A.J. Ofodile, a former NFL and Missouri tight end who worked with several members of the Boilermakers staff when they all were on staff at Mizzou.
Ofodile tipped off the Purdue coaches, feeling Branch was under recruited. He had offers from the likes of Lindenwood and Pittsburg State, among others, before picking the Boilermakers.
