Jah’von Grigsby, a 5’10, 185 pound defensive back out of Scotlandville High School in Baton Rouge, Louisiana verbally committed to Purdue on Saturday.
Grigsby is rated as a mid/high 3* (87) player according the the 247 composite. He is considered the 55th best safety and 707th best overall player in the 2021 class and the 20th best prospect in Louisiana. He was previously committed to Michigan State, but backed off that commit early in the fall. At one point this was a battle between Vanderbilt and Purdue, but you’ve got to think Vandy firing Derek Mason gave Purdue the late edge.
