Corey wrote about a Youth Movement last year (2020 Youth Movement) but we are witnessing exactly how a new HC flips a roster.
With all the exits, players choosing not to play again and graduations coupled with this team of coaches willing to play the youngsters this is indeed a youth movement like we havn't seen in a long time.... possible since Bobby first came here.
14 of the 22 possible starting slots on offense & Defense are underclassmen. If you count special teams it's 19 of 28.
Per the two deep on Offense we have the following
Starters:
Fr: 3
So: 3
Jr: 3
Sr: 2
2nd String:
Fr: 7
So: 0
Jr: 1
Sr: 3
Per the two deep on Defense we have the following
Starters:
Fr: 3
So: 5
Jr: 1
Sr: 2
2nd String:
Fr: 6
So: 2
Jr: 2
Sr: 1
If we look at the two deep on Special Teams we have the following
Starters:
Fr: 2
So: 3
Jr: 1
Sr: 0
2nd String:
Fr: 2
So: 3
Jr: 1
Sr: 0
*I know this is also due to the 2020 season but that doesn't change the fact they are underclassmen.
So, with this many underclassmen what are your thoughts on the season?
A. Improved over last year because we couldn't be worse
B. Improved over last year because the younger guys are clearly better than the older guys
C. 50/50 because youth leads to a lot of mistakes
