Purdy made his official announcement Wednesday morning. His decision came down to Iowa State and Texas A&M, but in the end, the Cyclones won out.
Purdy, who is listed at 6-foot-1 and nearly 200 pounds, had an impressive offer list. Schools such as Texas A&M, Alabama, Boise State and Central Florida had reportedly offered him scholarships.
The Gilbert, Arizona, native was ranked as the No. 36 pro-style quarterback in the class of 2018, per the 247Sports composite ranking.
He was also named Arizona’s Gatorade Player of the Year after his senior season.
