In a somewhat surprising move, Jack Wegher found himself in his familiar running back position yesterday in fall camp. Jack played running back almost exclusivly for IMG Academy as a junior, but an early season ankle injury, combined with another 5* running back on the roster, moved Wegher to wide receiver his senior season. Most people assumed that’s where the 5’9, 200 pound freshman would land at Purdue. Specifically, most people, including myself, thought he would end up playing the slot for the Boilermakers. That changed, however, with Jack getting reps coming out of the backfield yesterday. At first, I really didn’t understand the move, but the more I think about it, the more it makes sense from a personnel perspective, at least for this year.
