This is the information that I have read regarding the projected starters. QB: Randall RB: Vincent FB: Steltz T: Whitworth and Livings G: Niswanger and Brian Johnson C: Wilkerson TE: Jones WR: Green and Bowe DE: Spears and Oliver DT: Williams and Wroten LB: Turner and Vaughn and Kuale S: Landry and J. Daniels CB: Webster and T. Daniels Any information on second string, or do you project different starters for OR St. Second String: RB: Broussard DE: Pittman LB: Highsmith and Kenneth Hollis CB: Stevenson
One thing that is unbelievable to see, is that there is only ONE senior on the 3 deep depth chart for the OL... I know there is a chance Whitworth could be gone and that would be arguably our top two guys leaving after this year, but the team is in great shape for the next few years. The rest of the depth chart at all other positions look pretty much the same also...
As far as the line goes, Saban had said that big men woudl be a recruiting priority this year, so expect the few that are departing will soon be replaced.
I am not sold on Whitworth leaving after this year. All of his best accolades and awards will be forthcoming as a senior. It will make a difference between being a low 2nd/early 3rd rounder, to a sure fire 1st rounder.
You think McGill and Oliver have lost their chance at starting due to off the field problems, or just been beat out?
