College football has made quite a shift over the last 25 years. The days of redshirting your best players to get them as a fifth-year senior are gone. Players are playing from day one now more than ever and the majority of great players take off to the NFL early.
Early indications can be a major factor for the future of a prospect. The College Football News True Freshman All-America Team gives us a great scope of who can make a major impact this season. In fact, three players from the B1G made the list.
- Nick Singleton, Penn State RB
- Will Johnson, Michigan CB
- Dasan McCullough, Indiana LB
Singleton is the least surprising on the list, as he is expected to be the next in a long line of great Penn State running backs. All three will be must-watch this season.
