This spring practice is a crucial one for Purdue’s David Blough. He’s learning a whole new system under first-year head coach Jeff Brohm, a quarterback-friendly offense in which Blough will have to be sharp for the whole team to succeed.
Still, Blough understands that football isn’t everything. That's because of what he does during his rare down time during the spring.
Blough and a group of Purdue athletes spent their spring break earlier this month volunteering at a South African orphanage. It was Blough’s fifth trip to the orphanage since 2015.
“When I reflect on everything I’ve been able to do so far in my young life, it’s humbling,” he said.
