24/7's first practice depth chart is out...

I remember the excitement around Jesse Jackson even though he was coming through an injury ... anyone know about his recovery and potential ? I just don't hear anything about the guy we were so glad to sign

Jesse was having a good spring until he pulled a hamstring the last week of practice. He will get some spot duty this year but his chance will come next year after we lose 2 outside guys.

I really thought we'd be moving somebody over to FS, at least until Market had proven he hadn't lost a step. Can't believe we're rolling the dice like that.

From a morale standpoint two things: 1) you don't just yank a guy because he got injured and 2) you don't just promote a guy because he showed up. Either or both of these would send the wrong message to the team. Let it play out.

In the right defense system. Great CB play ( which we will have) can cover up what u may lack at the S position...
We are better and more athletic at S positions as a whole this year than we were last year...

Who said anything about yanking anybody or promoting anybody. But we have Market, who is coming off an injury. We have Evans, who let's say was not outstanding last year. We have Jamal Peters, who has a lot of potential but is a freshman. With all that uncertainty, it seems unlikely that we're going to end up with a good starter and solid backup out of that group. SO I'm surprised we don't have somebody like Bryant trying to work at FS since Coman is supposedly ok and McLaurin also supposedly has the chance to play as a freshman.

And maybe they do have some other options since this isn't the coach's depth chart. But I would have felt better if we had another person obviously competing for the FS position.
