Purdue's 2025 recruiting class has taken another hit. Kuol Kuol, a three-star offensive tackle, announced that he was flipping his commitment to Iowa State on Thanksgiving Day. He was the second player to from the Boilermakers on the holiday.
Kuol, a 6-foo6, 260-pound offensive tackle, had initially committed to Purdue back in July. He announced his decision with a social media post on X.
"After much consideration and talk with the people most important to me, I have decided to make the very difficult decision to decommit from Purdue University," Kuol wrote. "This really has been a conflicting choice, but I feel is what's best for my academic and athletic development moving forward.
"With that being said, I'd like to announce my commitment to Iowa State University."
