Purdue Football: The Youth Movement is Here.

The youth movement is here. Whether we like it or not.

This team is littered with injuries.

Looking at the two deep for Offense, Defense and Special Teams - I count 21 True Freshmen or Redshirt Freshmen starting or listed as backups. That is near 50% of the two deep being freshmen.

Whether we like it or not, the youth movement is here and we should probably embrace it. At times, we will be frustrating to watch, we will make a lot of mistakes, and we will lose some games. But, this is all a part of the growing pains we knew that we would eventually get.
