Depth Chart Update

The post-spring depth chart gives us some things to ponder...

OFFENSE

SE --
88 Kenneth Harris (6-3, 215, Sr.)
16 Kris Durham (6-5, 200, Jr.)
12 Tavarres King (6-1, 172, Fr.)
85 Demiko Goodman (6-2, 190, Sr.)
80 Walter Hill (6-4, 214, RFr.)

Really? Tavarres over Demiko? Says a lot about King and something about DG's practice habits. Kid steps it up in the game, though.

LT --
77 Trinton Sturdivant (6-5, 293, So.)
78 Josh Davis (6-6, 293, RSo.)

LG --
72 Vince Vance (6-8, 320, Jr.)
54 Tanner Strickland (6-5, 328, RFr.)
73 Chris Little (6-6, 330, RFr.)

C --
63 Chris Davis (6-4, 292, RSo.)
61 Ben Jones (6-3, 300, Fr.)
74 Kevin Perez (6-3, 270, RSo.)

Ben Jones was undoubtedly a recruiting coup (from Centreville, AL) and was one of the stars of the spring - anytime they compare your motor to Pollack...

RG --
60 Clint Boling (6-5, 290, So.)
79 Justin Anderson (6-5, 328, RFr.)
76 Ben Harden (6-3, 310, RFr.)
66 Micky White (6-3, 331, RSo.)

RT --
64 Kiante Tripp (6-6, 270, RSo.)
68 John Potts (6-3, 285, RFr.)

We are still thin at tackle. Pray for good health.

TE --
86 Tripp Chandler (6-6, 263, Sr.)
89 Bruce Figgins (6-4, 254, So.)
81 Aron White (6-4, 228, RFr.)
18 Derek Rich (6-4, 274, Fr.)

Oh, let's just say I'm old fashioned but I'd love to see some twin TE sets and see how we pound the ball on the ground. Aron White is no slouch either.

QB --
7 Matthew Stafford (6-3, 237, Jr.)
14 Joe Cox (6-1, 208, Jr.)
6 Logan Gray (6-2, 180, RFr.)
17 Jonathan deLaureal (6-2, 213, RSo.)

Safe to say UGA can suffer a QB injury and be just fine. unlike a lot of teams and unlike a lot of years.

FB --
36 Brannan Southerland (6-0, 240, Sr.)
49 Shaun Chapas (6-2, 236, RSo.)
48 Fred Munzenmaier (6-2, 233, RSo.)

TB --
24 Knowshon Moreno (5-11, 207, RSo.)
4 Caleb King (5-11, 212, RFr.)
22 Richard Samuel (6-2, 215, Fr.)
33 Kalvin Daniels (5-10, 182, So.)
8 Dontavius Jackson (5-10, 190, Fr.)

This is a surprise to me. I really thought Dontavius would prove to be more the standout than Samuel. Jackson probably to be redshirted then.

FLK --
1 Mohamed Massaquoi (6-2, 198, Sr.)
26 Tony Wilson (5-11, 198, RSo.)
82 Michael Moore (6-1, 188, Jr.)
28 Israel Troupe (6-1, 215, RFr.)
87 Vernon Spellman (6-1, 184, Jr.)

According to the ABH, M. Moore is actually 2nd team behind MM. Personally, I like his play-making ability over Wilson. What will happen when AJ Green gets to Athens?

Defense

DE --
41 Roderick Battle (6-4, 261, Jr.)
99 Jarius Wynn (6-5, 273, Sr.)
58 Demarcus Dobbs (6-2, 266, RSo.)
68 Wes Jacobs (6-2, 245, Sr.)

C'mon Wes Jacobs, get with it!

DT --
95 Jeff Owens (6-3, 298, Sr.)
90 Corvey Irvin (6-4, 286, Sr.)
97 Brandon Wood (6-1, 280, RSo.)
69 Andrew Gully (6-4, 250, Sr.)

Same for you, Gully

DT --
56 Geno Atkins (6-1, 290, Jr.)
91 Kade Weston (6-5, 316, Jr.)
98 Ricardo Crawford (6-1, 297, RSo.)

I've said it before, we may have the strongest set of DTs in the conference (nation) Kade Weston and Corey Irvin 2nd string? Please.

DE --
55 Jeremy Lomax (6-4, 247, Sr.)
49 Michael Lemon (6-4, 274, RSo.)
42 Justin Houston (6-3, 240, RFr.)
92 Neland Ball (6-6, 232, RFr.)
64 Matthew DeGenova (6-1, 210, RFr.)

We need JLo to come up big this year. Check out the future at this position where UGA continues the tradition of DEU

Sam --
51 Akeem Dent (6-2, 218, RSo.)
52 Darius Dewberry (6-3, 236, Jr.)
46 Justin Fields (6-1, 244, RSo.)

Akeem Dent will be a star.

Mike --
33 Dannell Ellerbe (6-1, 232, Sr.)
43 Charles White (6-1, 217, RFr.)

Does Ellerbe remind anyone else of Tony Taylor, Orantes Grant, Adrian Hollingshed? A real lunch pail guy.

Will --
35 Rennie Curran (5-11, 220, So.)
50 Darryl Gamble (6-2, 237, RSo.)
37 Akeem Hebron (6-1, 225, RSo.)
15 Benjamin Boyd (6-1, 210, Sr.)

Please, I can't even talk about this. With the exception of "Head-bangin'" Boyd, this is an impressive group and 3 sophs to boot.

WC --
23 Prince Miller (5-8, 190, Jr.)
3 Bryan Evans (5-11, 188, Jr.)
25 Vance Cuff (5-11, 170, So.)
26 Christian Norton (5-7, 160, RSo.)

Depth at corner is one of my biggest concerns.

SS --
5 CJ Byrd (6-2, 193, Sr.)
31 Quintin Banks (6-2, 210, RSo.)
47 Andrew Williams (6-0, 197, Sr.)

FS --
9 Reshad Jones (6-2, 203, RSo.)
32 John Knox (6-2, 194, RFr.)
10 Donavon Baldwin (6-2, 204, Jr.)
4 Andrew Johnson (6-0, 195, RSo.)

Who is this John Knox kid? Pretty impressive.

SC --
2 Asher Allen (5-10, 198, Jr.)
11 Ramarcus Brown (5-11, 170, Sr.)
17 Chad Gloer (6-0, 191, RSo.)

SPECIALISTS
P --
32 Brian Mimbs (5-11, 205, Sr.)
13 Drew Butler (6-2, 205, RFr.)

PK --
*Blair Walsh (5-10, 175, Fr.)
13 Drew Butler (6-2, 205, RFr.)
91 Andrew Jensen (6-3, 210, RSo.)
97 Brian Behr (5-11, 165, RFr.)

Now THAT is impressive. You're listed at #1 and you haven't arrived in Athens, nor been assigned a jersey number.

SN --
65 Jeff Henson (6-3, 258, Sr.)
59 Bo Fowler (6-2, 215, Sr.)

H --
32 Brian Mimbs (5-11, 205, Sr.)

What is H?

PR --
2 Asher Allen (5-10, 198, Jr.)
23 Prince Miller (5-8, 190, Jr.)

Hmmm. Not to get controversial here, but I don't really want guys teeing off on Ash, especially given the secondary depth.

KOR --
2 Asher Allen (5-10, 198, Jr.)
11 Ramarcus Brown (5-11, 170, Sr.)
22 Caleb King (5-11, 212, RFr.)
