Ok hopefully this helps. Fun to think about football again! Thanks 22 for putting these articles together!

QB:
1.Jason Shelley
2. Andrew Peasley
3. Cooper Legas/Josh Calvin
Story Line: Staff really likes Peasley, will he be able to push Shelley?

RB:
1. Jaylen Warren (all league talent)
2. DHC (possible all league guy)
3. John Gentry
4. Elelynon Noa
5. Isaiah Afatasi
Story Line: Does Jaylen or DHC separate as the #1 back?

WR X:
1. Justin McGriff
2. Derek Wright
3. Sean Carter
4. Kanen Eaton (Is he still on the team?)
Story Line: Can McGriff come in and compete right away? One of the big keys for the season is getting production here.

WR Z:
1. Jordan Nathan (all league and our favorite)
2. Savon Scarver
3. Ajani Carter
4. Tim Carter
5. Quinton Hadnot
Story Line: Can Savon become more of a receiving threat at whatever WR position that he plays?

WR H: (I believe Taylor Compton has moved on, would he still play this semester?)
1. Deven Thompkins (big breakout year, possible all league)
2. Tyrese Mack
Story Line: The staff has mentioned how Thompkins needs to be a focal point on offense, how do they do this?

TE:
1. Carson Terrell (possible all league talent)
2. Broc Lane or
3. Bryce Mortensen
4. Josh Sterzer
Story Line: Who becomes the #2 behind Carson?

2 TE sets:
1. Mosese Manu
2. Logan Lee
3. Jack Drews
Story Line: How often do we play with a H/back or 2nd TE? Staff has mentioned they like this set.

LT:
1.Alfred Edwards (all league guy)
2.Hunter Hill or
3.Wade Meacham

RT:
1.Andy Koch (possible all league guy)
2. Jacob South or
3.Jackson Owens
4.Cole Motes
Story Line: Out of the tackles who becomes the number 2 on the depth chart?

LG:
1.Heneli Bloomfield
2.Ty Shaw
3.Wyatt Bowles

RG:
1.Karter Shaw
2.Kyler Hack
3.Logan Wood
Story Line: Is Ty Shaw back?

Center:
1.Demytrick Aliifua
2.Chandler Dolphin

5.Addison Trupp

DE:
1.Marcus Moore (possible all league guy)
2. Hale Motu
3.James Hansen
4.Jaylin Bannerman
5.Aaron Bredsguard
Story line: Solid 2 deep here. Can anyone step up in the 3 deep.

NG:
1.Caden Anderson Or
2.Soni Fata
3.Dean Rice
4.Poukesi Vakauta
5.Jase Anderson
Story line: Who becomes number 3 here? Rice or Poukesi? Or possibly Josh Bowcutt or Hale Motu could move over as well if needed.

OLB:
1.Nick Heninger (all league guy)
2.Cash Gilliam Or
3.Keegan Duncan
4.Dahlin Mesake
5.Izzy Vaifoou
Story line: How Nick Heninger transitions to this role. This group has some crazy depth and talent

ILB:
1.Maika Magalei
2.Eric Munoz
3.Mata Hola

ILB:
1.Kevin Metzenheimer (possible all league guy)
2.Elijah Shelton
3.Jaymason Willingham
4.Daniel Langi
Storyline: Who starts next to Metzenheimer? Does Magalei return to form?

CB:
1.Andre Grayson Or
2.Cam Lampkin Or
3.Zahodri Grayson
4.Mike Anyanwu

CB:
1.Xavion Steele Or

I guess one of the things I hadn't considered is how a 7 or 8 game season impacts a redshirt.
You could keep guys under 5 games a lot easier, and save a season for JG or EN at running back by splitting their games.

Did the Shaw kid survive the tweeting situation?

BustaMcNutt · Post by **BustaMcNutt** » September 23rd, 2020, 10:57 am

I think we need a new roster before knowing what to expect. It sounds like there's a handful of guys that have moved on (like Compton, Mack, etc.).

Mack is gone?

I wonder if Compton is still on campus and still would play in the fall?

I also think we could have some guys decide not to play because of the virus.

Hasn't it been determined that this is a Mulligan year for everybody, regardless of how much they play?

I think so. So they all are redshirts!

newhouse9 · Post by **newhouse9** » September 23rd, 2020, 11:05 am

Seems we had a couple kids opt out...Scarver and someone else?

Post by **Aglicious** » September 23rd, 2020, 11:08 am

Yes, everyone's eligibility is frozen for this season so it doesn't matter. Also, I do recall a few players stating that they were opting out of the season prior to the conference cancellation. I wonder if they would still opt out now? I believe one of them at the time was Scarver.

EDIT: newhouse beat me to it.

Great write up! I hope Scarver can step it up this year, otherwise, we're undersized at the Z position. Also, wondering if Duncan will play outside or inside? Excited for his potential.

All eligibility is frozen. All players can play in as many games as possible and it will not affect their status in regards to losing a year of participation.

Meitzenheimer has the best linebacker name since Busta and McNutt.

Except (Pat) McNutt played tight end.

As more info comes out about who is still here and who is not, I'll be revisiting my depth chart projections. Soon!

Of course he did ... wearing a linebacker name.

Next year will be super interesting assuming Warren and DMC are back again. Maybe then you only play the two "freshman" 4 games each and preserve another year of eligibility! Very unlikely but technically possible, I guess?

Remember Eddie Badabanga (or somegthing like that)? I think he was safety but awesome football name.

From what I understand, Devontae Henry-Cole is leaning toward returning for the 2021 season.

The scenario you presented is very possible.

Scarver has been dressed and participating at the practices. Pretty sure he will be playing. Also saw Marcus Moore out there which was good to see. Devante Henry Cole has some serious quickness -- can't wait to see him in a game

Shelley and Peasly are getting the most reps. They both have some inconsistencies. They make some very good throws and
then throw into coverage or throw short on the deep passes.. The team is practicing three times a week that will change if the MW gives the go-ahead. Players are practicing with helmets and shoulder pads,
It is interesting that there is no support staff on the field. Players are responsible for there own water water jugs- no watergirls/boys on the field.

I'm anxious to hear reports, hopefully from some of the Insiders about how the offense looks with the new coordinator and new offense will be running as well as a defense returning to the 3/4.

I can make you feel worse. I've got a cousin who is cousin's with a major DL player. I won't name him, but, the player told my cousin that he hasn't been conditioning much all summer because the season was cancelled due to COVID. I wonder how many other players neglected their conditioning?

They've been doing workouts since the first of September. The season wasn't $hit canned until early August so if he wasn't putting in his off-season work all summer, he wouldn't have been ready for fall camp in August anyway. Whoever the dude is had 30 days to get his $hit together.
