Didn't make sense to me when one is an All-American.
cautiously optimistic about wide outs, still nothing proven that we have a 3rd down receiver
cautiously optimistic we have a true threat backup rb, really need kene to have a big year
uwazurike at DT, heard rumblings but to see it on the depth chart is interesting

We can go 12 personal in the red-zone with two 6'6" TE's plus Sean Shaw who is 6'6" and Xavier Hutchinson at 6'3". That is a lot of size and skill for cb's to cover. Louisiana has 2 starters in the defensive backfield that are listed at 5'9"
13 personal you can add a 6'7" Soehner to have 4 guys at or above 6'6"

height is one thing we have definitely gone after recently and it is awesome.
The problem with #FreeMikeRose is that freshman year Mike Rose had Willie Harvey and Marcel Spears to be in between. The defense is weaker with Rose in the middle because of who his replacement would be (and because Vance is a baller in his own right).
Pactically, Easton will receive the least snaps of the three, so I get you. But maybe the "OR" says more about him than it does Charlie. We all remember how Campbell hyped him up last year.
I'm not so sure about that. I guess we'll see. A lot of reports had Newell at guard and Schweiger at center..... but who knows??
The lineup I saw suggested back in the Spring—apparently filtering from the coaching staff—was simply Vance to Will and Hummel sliding to Sam. So, where’s the weak spot with Rose at Mike?
I’m not sure about this.
I suspect that Grant Treiber is the long term solution at LT. If you start Sean Foster there against Louisiana for his collection of starts and senior status, and as a reward for working hard—both of which would be a very Matt Campbell thing to do—then where do you give Grant his first start?
On the road against TCU doesn’t seem great, nor does at home against OU. I think that CMC is going to have a tough decision on that one.
As with basketball.... it doesn't really matter who starts.... it matters who plays the most minutes. Foster could start, but then Treiber gets the majority of minutes.
Matt Campbell doesn’t coach basketball.
Nor does he play his OL that way. At least, so far.
I am looking forward to seeing what Foster can do. Guy has a reputation for not doing all he could be doing up until this year. Maybe he is locked in for his senior year, and has improved his footwork. Either way, it is good that there is at least some competition for the OL spots. CMC's first year they were just trying to find guys that looked like OL.
If it was originally the staff's idea, there must be a reason it's not being implemented. Perhaps Vance is even less natural than Rose on the outside, I wouldn't know.
In any case, I don't feel like linebacking was the issue last year. Getting a pass rush, and the pass coverage of the safeties seemed the worst. It also didn't help the linebackers that the corners were bad at setting the edge. I'm still worried about the secondary, hoping that another year of experience and a healthy Jaquan Bailey does the trick.
.
Having a health Elsworth is probably the biggest key for the defense. Guy is just such an eraser out there.
Hoping that Will McDonald is a nightmare for teams this year. He was so impressive against TX last year. He was getting held so bad it was insane.
I think we have only had 3 recruits ever to play in the HS (formerly Army) All American game: Allen Lazard, Breece Hall,....and Daniel Jackson. Expect big things.

Dae'Shawn Davis going from a lightly recruited late addition, to on the 2-deeps as a RS freshman is very impressive.

It's kinda scary seeing how small our safeties are. Particularly the backups (King and Miller). The lack of depth at LB is also scary. I was a bit worried about the d-line at the end of last season, after losing Jamahl, Lima and Leo, but I really like the players on the two-deeps that are listed. I absolutely love seeing T.J. Tampa and Daniel Jackson on the list. And Easton Dean, assuming he ends up being as good as we have heard he will be.
