With less than a week until the National Early Signing Day on Dec. 19, Northwestern snagged its 17th commitment of the 2019 recruiting class in safety Brandon Joseph, who announced his pledge to the Wildcats Saturday afternoon on Twitter. A three-star safety prospect, Joseph hails from College Station, Texas. He is NU’s fifth 2019 commit from the Lone Star State.
Joseph committed to Texas Tech back in July, but announced his decommitment from the Red Raiders on Dec. 8. The program announced head coach Kliff Kingsbury would not be retained on Nov. 25. Joseph also had offers from Arizona, Purdue, and Utah, among others.
