And Marcel Frost has dropped down to 4th string TE. After all we heard about him in the offseason, this is one of the greatest mysteries of them all. Oh well, I guess the coaches see him differently than we do. Imagine that.

I think a lot of these kids are dinged up (that could be the case with Bam) and it is hard to tell how that factors in to depth. (Notice where Joe and Underwood are listed as well.)

It is informative to look at where our upper classemen reside. We have ten scholarship seniors on this team. Five of those ten are now listed third team or lower.

I also would like to see Johnson a little more at the fullback position. Brandon has showed me that he lacks the sack to step up and deliver a affective block on a D-End or a Blitzing Linebacker. He seems to be on his back a little more than he is standing up.

However, Johnson needs to take it a step further in practice and show the coaches that he is more than capable of picking up the blocking schemes.

Donte Whitner is listed as 1st team safety. I hope this means he is cleared to play against MSU.

RJ coleman was wearing #81 in the PSU game which is Frost's #. Intersting to see him also now listed as 3rd team TE

The way Whitner was limping around Saturday, I'd be surprised if he starts. But I've been wrong before and I will be again.

I was looking at the OL and I would like to see this formation

TE LT LG C RG RT TE
Coleman Rehring Sims Mangold Datish Barton Hamby

I am sure Kne will be in at RG but that could be an intereting line up on some running plays.

I noticed Coleman was playing te last Sat. When was he switched back to te?

Bam injury or not, it's nice to see Gonzo as the #3 fl. I'd love to see him get more and more time. He's going to be an important player in the future. I think he's better than alot of people think.
