Pre-fall depth chart

There's the answer to who's going to play strong side backer the first two games. Jarnor Jones.

Glad to see Aka finally get his butt into the starting lineup! I've been hoping for that guy to come on for several years now.

I also see they list Mike Johnson as safety. I was expecting him to play corner.

Interested to see how Peters does at linebacker. Rooting for him because he seems like an awesome guy, I just hope he can prove himself as a serviceable linebacker and that he can be more than just a stud special teams guy.

Also, nothing against De'Monte Ruth, but simply having a 163 pound Free Safety listed on the depth chart pretty much sums up where we're at here. That's just too small to play that position. He would be undersized at corner.
 
Anybody know anything about Hiro Sasaki?

I know this has been asked in another thread, but do we know anymore about Croney and Leath? Will they make it to campus, are they on campus?

I'm guessing Michael Johnson will jump him once he gets a little more time in the system.
 
Woof if you want to, but he's a pretty good running back and very dependable. Been around 5 years and would be very serviceable if a couple guys need a break or are out.
 
Wow we have no depth on defense

Huh?

This is the most depth we've seen in a very long time. Tucker and Aka backed up by Cousin and Leath...or even Garcia and Trent. That's 6 guys that can play, and we've even got depth at DE with White and Luna coming off the bench. At LB, we've got experience in the form of Knott and Mills off the bench and young talent in Northrup. At DB, all reports are that Wiltz is very good as is Peavy...that's 4 solid Cornerbacks. Safety has Cotton off the bench...so maybe you could say we're thin after that...but we've been worse off in the past.
