You cannot talk about Tyler Trent enough. The Purdue superfan battling bone cancer, who somehow found the strength and courage to attend the upset win over Ohio State — a victory he predicted — is the definition of a Boilermaker.
During College GameDay on Saturday, Tom Rinaldi prepared a feature story on Tyler, his fandom and his ongoing battle. And after Purdue’s victory on Saturday, ABC’s Good Morning America also ran a feature story.
There aren’t enough words to describe the impact Tyler, his strength and his story have had on Purdue and on college football. We’ll let this feature do the talking.
