The senior defensive tackle leaves a big hole for the Boilers on the defensive line.
Purdude defensive tackle Ra'Zahn Howard will not return for the 2016 season according to GBI earlier this morning:
Howard was suspended in January and didn't participate in spring practice or any team activities for the spring semester. In a text message, Howard said he missed the spring because of an academic issue. Purdue never specified why he was suspended, but Coach Darrell Hazell said Howard had been given a timeline to meet conditions in order to be reinstated to the program.
