Alright folks, buckle up! Today I’m gonna walk you through how I figured out where Purdy went to college. It wasn’t as straightforward as you might think, and there were a few rabbit holes along the way.

It all started with a simple question at the water cooler: “Hey, where’d Purdy play college ball?” Seemed easy enough, right? So, first thing I did was fire up Google. Just typed in “Brock Purdy college” – boom! Iowa State University. Okay, that was quick. I thought, “Job done!”.
But then, something bugged me. I remembered seeing some highlight reels, and the stadium didn’t quite look like Iowa. Maybe it was the angle, I dunno. So, I decided to dig a little deeper. Didn’t trust the first result so easy.
Next, I hopped over to Wikipedia. Figured that’d be a solid source, right? Double-checked, and yep, Iowa State was listed there too. Okay, getting more confident. BUT… I still had that nagging feeling.
So, being the stubborn person I am, I decided to hit up some sports news sites. ESPN, Bleacher Report, the works. Started searching for articles about Purdy, looking for any mention of his college days. Scrolling through a bunch of articles. And bam! There it was, Iowa State. Seems so obvious, and it is. Just wanted to prove it to myself to make sure that I was on the right track and not giving false information.
I even tried to find some old game footage. Searched on YouTube for “Brock Purdy Iowa State highlights.” Watched a few clips, and yeah, that Cyclone logo was everywhere.
After all that, I felt pretty good about Iowa State. I mean, Google, Wikipedia, sports news sites, game footage… all pointing to the same place.
So, the answer is Iowa State. That’s where Purdy went to college. Sometimes, even when the answer seems obvious, it’s worth digging a little deeper just to be sure. And hey, I learned a bit about Brock Purdy’s college career along the way!
Lessons learned? Trust, but verify. And don’t underestimate the power of a good Google search combined with a healthy dose of skepticism.
