It’s that time of year again folks. College football is right around the corner. And with that, UConn Huskies head football coach Paul Pasqualoni has released his first depth chart of the 2012 season for the Thursday night’s game against the UMass Minutemen.
There’s not much to compare it to right now but there are a few things that stick out.
We had learned that Chandler Whitmer had been named QB1 earlier this month. Johnny McEntee is listed as his backup. There’s no Scott McCummings on the depth chart but I wouldn’t rule out seeing him in some wildcat situations on Thursday night.
Also, John Delahunt is listed as the starter at tight end with Ryan Griffin as his backup. It was expected that Griffin would be the starter.
The only true freshman listed on the two deep is Kyle Bockeloh who is listed as the backup to Alex Mateas at center. There’s also one redshirt freshman listed as a starter. Julian Campenni is listed as the starter at one of the defensive tackle positions.
Other redshirt freshman in the two deep are Jefferson Ashiru, who is backing up Sio Moore at linebacker and Marquise Vann, who is backing up Yawin Smallwood at linebacker. Others include David Stevenson at cornerback, Andrew Adams at safety, Xavier Hemingway at right tackle and Dominick Manco at long snapper.
