Derek Willis Could Be Having Second Thoughts On Purdue Commitment

Derek Willis, a junior commit to Purdue, posted on his Facebook page Thursday that he had backed off his commitment to Purdue and would open up the recruiting process. Willis saw his stock rise significantly during the spring and it’s expected that both Kentucky and Louisville would enter the picture.

When contacted Thursday night, Willis’ father, Del Willis, said his son is still committed to Purdue and that there would be some clarification to the situation by Sunday.

Willis is an ESPN Top-20 recruit in the 2013 incoming class.
