Looks like a few freshmen may lose their redshirt in the first game, and I am sure Greg White is going to be pushing for time at one of the outside receiver positions.  No Hair-Griffin in sight, a little disappointing, but maybe his absence speaks to the depth at WR/returner positions.

Looking for a lot of catches out of Lawrence/Darden combo.  Good to see that Darden has already worked his into a 1B position at the A instead of a 2.  Competition is good.

Yeah, I scrolled to see if they had him as some kind of returner. Not there either. I was really surprised by that given his speed.

He's listed as the third guy for kick returns.

Offensively, I'm shocked Smiley is not starting ahead of Bussey.    WR's are stacked!

OL is about what we all thought it would be.   Impressive that Mayfield just came in and owned the RT spot immediately.

 

Defensively, good move to get Young back over and move TJohnson & Moore up on the ends.  Solid depth on the ends with Hambone to spell TJohnson.

LB is extremely worrisome.  I did not realize how thin we are there.   Basically, Garner and a bunch of question marks.  I was surprised to see Mylam Peters missing.  He must not be putting in work because he looks legit.  I like EJ at the Jack, but that position will be infinitely better when Wheeler returns.  I know Colton McDonald was pumped up a lot during the fall, but I'm really worried about that Will spot.

Kemon beat Jenkins!   I did not think that hype was real.  I thought they were trying to light a fire under Jenkins.  I guess it didn't work.   Secondary is stacked!

Definitely the two biggest question marks are OLine and Linebacker.

Really glad they moved Young back to nose. I think 7 wins is definitely attainable with this roster. All depends on the overall health for the season.

What's the status of Josh Wheeler?

Not good with him not even being in the two deep I'm afraid.  Hope I am wrong.

Wheeler and Minor both MIA.  We did not have the LB depth to steal from the middle to restock the Jack position.  

Can't see any way that Fulp doesn't push his way into the 2 deep quickly.  Very quickly.

Frustrating to see Mylam Peters bring a big bag of nothing since he got here.  Hope something clicks soon, but running out of time.

Just saws that Lawerence earned his spot and so has Darden/Duhon didn't make it easy either. 

Gotta remember HG has only been a WR for a year now, have to just hope it's a matter of time or packages are designed for him.

Hoping Fulp is RS and that is why he isn't listed. Agreed on Peters, he would have been a nice piece to have at Jack..

I liked what I saw from Lawrence, but wasn't expecting to see him trot out there with the 1's.   Great work by him.  
Wondering how long it takes for Chumley to assert himself on his way to dominance and then the NFL...   It's all right there if he wants it.

From the scrimmages I saw, they would run a 2 TE set a lot with Smith as the H-Back, and Chumley in the Y.

Won't be surprised to see them both on the field at the same time.

That would be a monster set.   Creates a lot of potential mismatches.
If Chumley can block, with Smith also blocking, Wilson will be in for some huge gains on those plays...   Or, the defense creeps up to defend against it, and opens up middle/downfield.

      What is this program missing?

      Right but if we hadn't done anything since the 60s, we wouldn't have a football program today. We were one vote away from dropping football 20 something years ago. Our adminstration basically told the Athletic Department that if the next guy didn't turn things around, that was it. The next guy that was hired was Art Briles.

      I hate to help you out in any way, but Houston had some pretty signature wins back in the 60's that got them noticed. They beat #3 Michigan State 37-7 in 1967, in 68 they tied #4 Texas and #7 Georgia, and beat Tulsa a NCAA record 100-6. Those were the days of Warren McVea and the veer.

      What is this program missing?

      We can hate on him but I do think he makes solid points. It is somewhat helpful to have an outside perspective that isn’t drinking the green kool-aid. (Although it crosses a line if that person starts kicking us while we’re down-which I don’t think he’s done in this post). So this offseason/next year looks like the following: -give morris another year to see what he can build -hire a new defensive coordinator -hopefully hang on to Chandler Morris and Sheffield -pray for a healthy RB room Anything I’m missing? This year: Still think a bowl win gives the program some momentum going into next year. Maybe my expectations grew too large after that 5-1 start, but man there was a glaring need defensively that was not addressed. The offense has also just fallen off a cliff.
