Friday was a big day for Purdue, when it landed a pledge from its second four-star commitment in the Class of 2022: Joe Strickland.

The 6-4, 245-pound defensive end is the 14th commitment in the Boilermakers' Class of '22, which currently ranks 34th in the nation by Rivals.com. Quarterback Brady Allen is Purdue's other four-star commitment.
