Who Are the 2026 Recruits Purdue Football Inked on National Signing Day?

Wednesday was a busy day in West Lafayette, as Purdue inked 21 players as members of the 2026 recruiting class on National Signing Day. It was a nice haul for coach Barry Odom and the staff.

There were only two real surprises for the Boilermakers on National Signing Day, with defensive back Jett Goldsberry flipping from Ole Miss to Purdue and defensive lineman Josiah Hope flipping from Louisville.

“National Signing Day is always an exciting, special day. When you see your first full-cycle class come together after being here for almost a year, it means a little bit more,” said Odom in a release. “Our program will continue to be established on identifying and developing talent, with characteristics that fit ’The Purdue Way.’ We are excited to start that process as soon as this group of student-athletes arrives on campus. I am proud of our organization and staff for building this class, and we cannot wait for the newest Boilermakers to join us! Boiler Up!”

Of the 21 recruits who committed to Purdue, Odom said 17 are on pace to join the program in the winter as mid-year enrollees.

Who all signed on the dotted line and will head to Purdue as members of the 2026 recruiting class? Here's the quick rundown of student-athletes (rankings via 247Sports).
