Offensive Lineman from Arkansas Commits to Purdue

Found December 21, 2011 on Rant Sports: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Joe Holland
TEAMS: Louisiana Tech Bulldogs,  Purdue Boilermakers

Danny Hope added one more to its class on Wednesday when Jason King, a well built offensive guard from Arkansas, committed to the Boilers. King has the luxury of already having the size of a major college program offensive guard. At 6-4 and 302 lbs., King has great strength for a high school senior. That said, it’s always tough for offensive linemen to play right away at the next level, so don’t be surprised if King redshirts despite his size. He looks to project as an offensive guard at the next level and it doesn’t look like he’ll be moved to offensive tackle, center, or elsewhere. King chose Purdue over Kansas and also had offers from Colorado, Arkansas State, and Louisiana Tech, among others. He’s rated as a 75 by ESPN (which equates to a 3 star recruit), a 2 star by rivals.com, and a 2 star by scout.com.

Purdue Ends Non-Conference Slate with Easy Win over ‘Dons

Via Rant Sports  |  December 20, 2011
Purdue capped off its pre-Big Ten schedule on Tuesday night against the IPFW Mastodons. After a let-down loss against Butler, it must have felt nice for Purdue’s players to take out some frustration on the in-state combination branch campus of IU and Purdue. The Boilers easily won 81-56. Here are my game notes: Anthony Johnson was the first off the bench after only logging...
