As FSU football begins to prepare for the 2021 season, the young players who have contributed along the offense look to take another step forward.

The success of the youth on this football team is paramount. There is a direct correlation between the further development of the team’s nucleus and the trajectory of the program.

It is also important for the program’s immediate success as FSU is one of the youngest teams in the FBS. The roster, as of November 17th, had just 13 seniors and 84 freshman and sophomores.

The latter number will likely rise as younger transfers and high school signees replace departing veterans.

FSU has brought in veteran leadership and quick fixes en mass via the transfer portal. But the temporary band-aids are just that; temporary.

The current young players will be more consistent contributors and hopefully become impact players as they come along in the program both in the immediate and long term.

This series will cover both offensive and defensive young players, specifically freshman or redshirt freshman, who will become impact players in year two.
