Obviously, it being December 2, there are a lot of projections in here. So I'm guessing about who leaves and who returns. A few notes:
-The guys in italics are freshmen. For the most part, I put them at the bottom of the depth chart. The two recruits I'm projecting to add, I put in green italics.
-I tacked the freshmen to the bottom of the depth chart for the most part because that's where they'll all start out. Obviously, that's not where many of them will be come opening day.
-I listed guys who are possible departures, either via the portal, NFL entry, or just walking away. I am not saying all of these guys will leave. Obviously, we already know about Burrell and Clipper.
-You can tell which ones I'm projecting to leave and which I'm projecting to come back by who is and isn't on my depth chart below.
-I inserted <PORTAL> in places where I think UT will look to add someone from the portal and where that guy will fit on the depth chart if he's what we need. I made that <PORTAL/JUCO> on the DLine because there's a good chance that we add 1 or 2 JUCOs in lieu of a portal guy.
-Obviously, the portal needs are fluid based on who comes back. For instance, I have Bru coming back. But if he doesn't come back, that's another portal need at WR (so instead of 1 portal WE, we need 2).
-I put Boo on offense. Some of y'all are gonna be mad. But I also understand that he very well may play Safety instead. Just might opinion at the moment.
