INDIANAPOLIS (AP)—The list of great quarterbacks who have played at Purdue is lengthy both in time and number, from Len Dawson, Bob Griese and Mike Phipps in the 1950s and ’60s, to current NFL quarterbacks Drew Brees and Kyle Orton.
Robert Marve will try to follow in their footsteps after deciding he’ll transfer to Purdue instead of walking on at Tennessee.
Purdue announced that Marve will be a Boilermaker in a news release Thursday. He will have two years of eligibility, starting with the 2010 season.
Purdue coach Danny Hope said Marve immediately made Purdue a better football program. He said Marve has a strong, accurate arm and runs the 40-yard dash in about 4.5 seconds.
“Any time we can get one of the nation’s top players on our football team, it’s something to celebrate,” Hope said.
