Tirek Murphy, a composite 4* running back from the 2020 recruiting class, announced he is entering the transfer portal today.
Murphy came to Purdue as the highest rated running back recruit in the Brohm era. Hopes were high for the bruising back out of New York, but an arrest the night before/moring of Purdue’s opening game of the season put those hopes on the back burner. Those hopes are now extinguished after Tirek opted out midway through the season without registering a carry, and will now look for a new school, essentially taking a recruiting mulligan.
