Thoughts:

This was the worst kept secret this summer.

It was known since his junior season, if Purdue were to offer, Ryan would commit to the Boilers.

Ryan has dominated in northern Indiana for years now, he started as as a pure safety, but as he continued to age, he kept getting bigger and ended up being a roll safety, like a Rover/OLB.

He will be in a similar to role as Jalen Graham is my best guess, along with Elijah Ball who was banged up this season. Ryan has all the measurables, he runs a 4.55 forty, squat over 400 pounds, cleans 300 pounds and a 34 inch vertical.

Ryan loves Purdue and will be a program guy. Expect him to do great things in West Lafayette.

Welcome to Purdue. Boiler Up, Ryan!
