Remember last year, when the first depth chart came out before Rutgers? Everybody said, "No way this came from the coaches...Ryan Bowman, Myles Bryant, and Ben Burr-Kirven can't seriously be starting, right?"
You all must be new. Literally the only thing about the official depth chart that matters is who is starting on the OL. The rest is a bunch of bullshit that Pete just throws a dart at to decide.
FUCK YEZZZZZZZ JAXSON KIRKLAND! I TOLD YOU! LET'S GO BIG HOSS!
The Tevis Bartlett experiment at inside backer failed? Fuck me he's back to being our starting SAM. He's not twitchy enough to do shit as a pass rusher. Solid, heady guy against the run though and will contain his edge.
Our inside backer depth is TRASH! Fucking Kyler Manu and a walk on in the two deeps? FUCK! Brandon Wellington still recovering from the ACL tear late last season. Won't be available till mid season. Daniel Heimuli would start for us right now.
Hell yeah Shane Bowman making a move and finally earning a starting job. I think this is a positive development. He has always looked talented to me. Hopefully he balls out his Senior year like Tani Tupou.
Austin Joyner at safety failed? Probably got the ball thrown over his head too many times. I have zero confidence in Gilchrist. He seems pudgy and slow to me. Hope we never need him to play serious minutes.
Fucking kill me the midget is still the starter at Nickel!? Really looking forward to Auburn taking advantage of that match up and putting a big receiver or flex TE in the slot and ass raping him just like Penn State did.
Seriously? Nobody beat out the opera singer at WR!? He better DO SOMETHING this season. He gets all this playing time and never does shit!
We're so fucked. Auburn is going to fuck us. Our WR's aren't good enough. Our inside backers aren't good enough. Tevis Bartlett isn't good enough at SAM. Benning is still too big. Vita is gone. Nobody else is even close to being as good as him. We're fucked. The season's over.
Did they say if either Spiker or Osborne are redshirting?
I asked eklund yesterday. He says as of now everyone is redshirting. Things could change after 4 games. We will know at the end of the season who has redshirted and who hasn't. Stay tuned.
Most of the same roster holes that were there against Pennetration State are pretty much still an issue....
The interior OL features a dude playing center for the first tim, and a guy at right guard playing his first game ever against one of the best DLs he'll ever face.
The inside linebacker position (before last year's class) was criminally under-recruited. Both starters are small and the depth is a fucking joke.
I know Potato and Bowman worked harder than ever this offseason, but the pass rush last year was shite and I just don't see these guys generating any heat against this level of competition.
Three of our top four receivers are Pounds, Bacalia, and Fuller.
JoJo hits like a mother fucker but sucks ass in coverage, he needs to be playing closer to the LOS in a more LB/S hybrid role given our lack of athletes in the LB group anyways. He would be another Travis Feeney if had redshirted
remove BBK or potato, shift JoJo down toward the LOS and play Joyner with Rapp Eyes at safety

TSIFO already
This is what I have been saying all month. Myles Bryant should be our starting Line Backer with Elijah molden at Dime and Joyner/Rapp/McIntosh playing 3 safety/nickel/buck spots. 2-2-7 defense is our only hope.

Jake Browning.
The rest doesn't mean much.

The depth chart is a message not cast in stone
