Provo • True freshman Zach Wilson, 19, grabbed all the headlines a few weeks ago when he became the youngest player to ever start at quarterback for BYU.
But the former Corner Canyon High star is just one of many freshmen who are part of coach Kalani Sitake’s youth movement in Provo. Through seven games, no fewer than 10 freshmen have started in at least one game for the Cougars, 11 if kicker Skyler Southam is included.
The list includes eight offensive players, two defensive players, and Southam, the special teams ace from Wasatch High.
