Three-star 2020 OL Gus Hartwig has verbally committed to attend Purdue.
Hartwig (6'5/275) is the second verbal commit in Purdue’s 2020 class, joining three-star ILB Ben Kreul. The Zionsville, Indiana native, who’s ranked the seventh-best center in the 2020 class by 247Sports.com, also held offers from Indiana, Cincinnati, Kansas and Vanderbilt. Hartwig most recently visited Purdue less than a week ago, and it was his unofficial visit to Ohio State the following day that made it clear that Jeff Brohm’s program was the best fit. “I had a really good visit at Purdue this weekend but was put it over the top is I went to Ohio State on Saturday,” Hartwig told 247Sports’ Steve Wiltfong. “I was expecting a lot more than what I saw and it put in perspective how close Purdue really is and how I want to be part of that.”
