EJ Jenkins is going to play more of a big WR than a TE. He can line up anywhere though.
Pierce Quick is a G not a Tackle.
Will Scissum is not the backup C.
Kevin Harris and Noah Collins both play rush end so neither is a #2 backup to Keion.
 
Subject should include the word "Projections".

There are a lot of good football players on that list.

:popcorn:
 
I won't miss the Above the Line nonsense one bit. Or the silly rotating numbers as rewards with duplicate single-digit jerseys on offense and defense. Makes knowing who is where on the field at a glance into an annual crossword puzzle.

I would put up with it if we were competitive.

As for the depth chart, those are a lot of names that were either highly recruited here or were highly recruited elsewhere and transferred here. Feels like a theme.

Yet we look slower than during the previous administration. I'll be interested to see if that pattern changes in Season 4. Either our S&C has been overemphasizing strength over speed, or our recruiting has been less successful than thought but tied to a strong PR campaign.

I'll dare to hope, but in forecasting this season I can hear Ragnar telling Bjorn to lead with his head and not his heart.

Who gives a crap what it is called? A coach can put out a depth chart and start completely different players.

Look on the roster on Ramblinwreck.com. There are duplicate numbers for every number from 0 through 50 on offense and defense. :eekfacepalm:

Doesn't matter as long as they aren't on the field at the same time.
