Depth chart for Charleston Southern

Maybe there is suspensions at safety as well?

Injuries

I struggle to imagine Nick Buchanon starting in the SEC.

I hope he can play C because that will allow heggie to take the LG spot which will keep Jordan's soft a$$ off the field.

Youre worried about Jordan w Buchanon on the field?

. I doubt he's really better than a healthy CeCe, though.

He is MUCH better at run defense. We have several of our light ends that are worthless trying to set the edge.

I didn’t know that. Wow. That stinks.

Buchanan has been putting in the work all this offseason. He did not receive S&C in the last couple of years. He has put one some good weight. I don't think he has the typical OL build with the hanging gut. He has a more athletic build. I can't wait to see what he can do at center. We will be doing a lot more pulling and trapping rather than just lining up and trying to push people off.

The other thing that people need to realize is that a depth chart is just that. It does not mean that the starter will necessarily get most of the plays. In particular for this time of the year it might also be meant as a message to reward people that worked really hard in camp. It will settle down in the next couple of games so that by the Tennessee game it will be the game roster going forward, barring injuries.

I'm worried about Jordan on the field PERIOD! Dude is soft AF and has been a total disappointment since getting here.

 

[Marianna-FL_Gator]

Ummmm...maybe because hes been pushed/slung around for the past 3 yrs!

in my opinion Jordan looked really good his true freshman year. I would have called him the best player on the line that year and thought he was on the way to a stellar career.

oddly he's look like crap since. I don't know whether it was peanut butter and jelly and pilates, or if he was just depressed by being around loser coaches. hopefully he's found some of that Mojo again.

I'm on my phone, so hard to link.....but, I read a qoute from Slaton talking about the Center position. Sounds like he's impressed with Buchanan and says that McCoy is only 5'11 (he's listed at 6'1). He says Buchanan, who is listed at 6'3, is "much taller than" McCoy, which helps him vs. McCoy. Says McCoy has great effort....but sounded like a "I don't want to hurt his feelings, so I'll add something positive".

Where is that going to leave Heggie? I was hoping he would take over one of the guard spots.

I’d imagine we’ll know where these guys stand in the coach’s eyes come game 2. Kentucky has almost beaten us a few years in a row - can’t be taken for granted until Mullen (or the next guy) rights the ship.
