In a move that has the college basketball world buzzing, Purdue’s dominant center and national sensation Zach Edey has officially signed a three-year contract extension to stay with the Boilermakers. The announcement comes just months after Edey led Purdue on a thrilling March Madness run, further solidifying his place as one of the most dominant big men in recent NCAA history.
The 7-foot-4 Canadian powerhouse has become the face of Purdue basketball, and this new deal ensures fans will get to see more of his unmatched presence on the court. Known for his overwhelming size, soft touch around the rim, and improved footwork, Edey averaged a double-double last season and captured the hearts of Boilermaker fans nationwide.
While details of the contract extension are still emerging, sources close to the program say the deal includes a significant NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) component, making it one of the most lucrative agreements in college basketball. Edey’s commitment signals a broader trend of top athletes choosing to remain in school amid expanding NIL opportunities.
Purdue head coach Matt Painter expressed excitement about the extension, saying, “Zach is the cornerstone of our team. His work ethic, leadership, and impact go beyond the stat sheet. This is a big day for Purdue.”
Edey himself kept it simple in a social media post: “Unfinished business. Let’s work.”
