Meet the Purdue player ESPN's 'College GameDay' thought was fake

ESPN "College GameDay" thought Purdue wide receiver Nitro Tuggle wasn't real. Meet him here.

Purdue football was mentioned in the second hour of ESPN's "College GameDay," which may come as a surprise for the team picked to finish last in the Big Ten. And it was only minutes after an Indiana reference.

The "GameDay" crew was at a big board guessing where prominent college football players had transferred to. The Boilermakers had a complete roster overhaul, largely utilizing the transfer portal, as Barry Odom flipped a roster for his first season as coach. But that wasn't the bit that landed Purdue on Lee Corso's final show.

No, show host Rece Davis put up five names on the board and asked the set which name was not real: Nitro Tuggle , Memorable Factor, Indiana Jones, Cody Stuffle
