Some possibly good news for the Ags (Nick Scourton)

LINK /

The transfer portal is set to close on Tuesday, Jan. 2, and even in late December, high-profile players have continued to enter their names, including former Purdue outside linebacker/defensive end Nic Scourton, who is a native of Bryan, Texas, first reported from The Athletic’s Bruce Feldman.

Coming out of the 2022 recruiting class, Scourton surprisingly did not receive an offer from Texas A&M, choosing the Boilermakers, which, at least statically, looked like the right choice during the past two seasons.

Earning a starting spot in the trenches during his 2023 sophomore season, Scourton lit up that stat sheet with 50 tackles (33 solo tackles), 10 sacks, 15 tackles for loss, one forced fumble, and three pass deflections, leading the Big 10 in sacks on the year.
