A product of St Peter's Prep in Jersey City, N.J., Oben is the second offensive lineman in Purdue's class, joining Cross Watson. New Jersey is the sixth state represented in Purdue's class.
Oben also held offers from Syracuse, UConn, Tulane, Charlotte, Liberty, Temple and many Ivy League schools, among others.
