Purdue Football Commits: Runningback Commits 2019

Related Topics: Markell Jones, Boilermaker

After the season is over, December 29th, we say goodbye to two pretty good running backs who have epitomized what a Boilermaker is.

Filling the void of D.J. Knox and Markell Jones won’t be easy, but in a couple of years, the duo coming in may be just as good as the duo we have departing.

Da’Joun Hewitt and King Doerue are coming to Purdue after great high school careers. Hewitt, the leading rusher in the state of Tennessee and Doerue being an underrated back out of the Lone Star state. Personally, I am excited for both of these ball players to wear the gold and black next year.
