Rondale Moore is back.

After previously opting out of the college football season back in August, Moore changed his mind, announcing on Thursday that he will instead return to Purdue for his junior season.

Moore, played just four games last season due to injury, but he had already established himself as one of the nation's top playmakers as just a true freshman. Moore finished his first season of college football with 114 catches for 1,258 yards and 12 touchdowns as well as 21 carries for 213 yards and two touchdowns on the ground.

Perhaps the most impressive game of his career to date came against the Buckeyes in 2018 when he finished with 12 catches for 170 yards and two touchdowns to lead Purdue to a lopsided 49-20 win over the top-ranked Buckeyes.

In the Big Ten's initial conference-only schedule, Purdue was set to meet the Buckeyes on the field this season. However, in the revised slate beginning in late October, Ohio State will not face the Boilermakers unless it's in the Big Ten Championship game.
