Quarterback should be one of Purdue's signature positions every year Jeff Brohm coaches the Boilermakers and the position will be recruited accordingly.

That in mind, a 2019 possibility emerged last week when Connor Bazelak of Archbishop Alter in Dayton was offered shortly after quarterbacks coach Brian Brohm visited his school to watch him throw.

“They’ve been recruiting me for a while," Bazelak said. "Coach (Derrick) Jackson, I’ve been in communication with him and saw him in the fall when I came to a game and saw all the coaches. They’ve been recruiting me for a good amount of time, and now that they’ve offered me, I guess it’s getting more serious.”
