45 Days to Purdue Football: Austin Larkin & Lane Beeler

Please excuse the Notre Dame picture, as that guy has now switched sides to Purdue.

It is another two player day, so let's get to it.

Austin Larkin - Jr.

University City, Missouri (Notre Dame, City College of San Francisco)

6'3", 252 pounds

Defensive End

2016 Projection: Possible starter at Defensive End

Yes, the last name of Larkin means he is part of baseball royalty. Austin's Father, Michael, played linebacker for four years at Notre Dame. His cousin, Shane Larkin, just finished his third NBA season after a stellar career at Miami where he was named the ACC Player of the Year as only a sophomore.
