Defensive End
2021 Projection: Potential All-American
Sadly, Big George went the Rondale Moore route for his sophomore season. After a breakout true freshman year, injuries (and COVID) limited him to three games and four tackles with two sacks. How much of a difference was he though? Even though he played half of a six game season he still led Purdue in sacks with two (of five for the team).
