Nice try.Dean's commitment didn't scare off Duggan. Purdy did. By the time Duggan was committing, Purdy had already won the starting job as a true freshman, went 7-2 as QB, and went to the Alamo Bowl. Duggan was not going to commit to ISU to sit behind that for 3 years.
When Duggan committed to TCU, Brock Purdy was finishing up his final semester at Perry HS.
