The Fall Two-Deep Depth Chart is out

The UMass preseason two-deep Depth Chart is out. See it here . The UMass Fanzone Blog thinks the two-deep is very close to what will be the starting lineup against Richmond on 09/01/05.

Below is the Offense. A * symbol denotes a returning starter. A number after the name () indicates a note.

Pos. No. Player Yr. Height Weight

• WR 81 Brandon London Jr. 6-4 210 (1)
• LT 77 Colin Stoetzel RSr. 6-6 290 * (2)
• LG 68 Matt Austin RSo. 6-5 285 (3)
• C 62 Alex Miller RJr. 6-2 300 *
• RG 73 David Thompson RJr. 6-3 310 *
• RT 72 O.J. McBride RSr. 6-3 298 *
• TE 44 Mike Douglas RSr. 6-2 246 *
• TB 5 Steve Baylark Jr. 6-0 225 *
• FB 49 Frank McDonald RJr. 6-0 235 (4)
• QB 10 Tim Day Sr. 6-0 210 *
• WR 3 R.J. Cobbs RSr. 5-11 190 (5)

Notes:

1. London should rotate with J.J. Moore RSo. 6-0 210. The Blog thinks Moore would start on the other side if Cobbs should be injured.

2. Stoetzel is one of the Tri-Captains and the subject of a previous blog.

3. The Fanzone Blog actually thinks Brent Caldwell Sr. 6-3 290, a transfer from Syracuse will start. Caldwell played very well in the spring game. He is the lone projected starter out of the six I-A players who transferred to UMass.

4. McDonald is a transfer from Northeastern who sat out last year. He is one of the two I-AA transfers who will start.

5. Cobbs is a former A10-Rookie-of-the-Year who has been moved from CB to WR. The Fanzone Blog thinks Dominique Stewart Sr. 6-0 180 will get a lot of time here.
