53 Days to Purdue Football: Gus Hartwig
Robert Scheer/IndyStar via Imagn Content Services, LLC Getting a true freshman to come in on the offensive line and play immediately is rare, especially at Purdue. We don't get those 4- and 5-star lineman hat are immediately ready often, but last year we did.
Gus Hartwig - So.
Zionsville, IN (Zionsville HS)
6’5”, 305 pounds
Offensive Line
2021 Projection: Starter
Hartwig was very, very good early in his career, and will be a star on the line for the next three seasons. As a true freshman he played in all six games, made three starts, and was even honorable mention all-Big Ten. That is fantastic for a true freshman lineman.
