Notre Dame Football Depth Chart What's New
A few new developments, including injury-related shufflings:
:: at wide receiver, Michael Floyd is listed as a starter for Tulsa; freshman Bennett Jackson, special teams gunner and kickoff returner, is listed in the two-deep as a back-up to John Goodman (recall that in the base formation for the BK Spread, there are three WR spots, therefore with six in the two-deep)
:: Armando Allen is listed as the starter at running back, with Cierre Wood as the sole back-up
:: with an injury-induced shuffling on the defensive line, nose guard Ian Williams is out with injury, and Sean Cynar is the starting NG, with Hafis Williams moved over from back-up defensive end to be the back-up NG; freshman Kona Schwenke moves into the two-deep at DE in Williams' place
:: there also is a minor reshuffling with linebackers; Carlo Calabrese moved into a starting position at inside linebacker at the start of the year, when Anthony McDonald was injured; McDonald has shifted over to be a back-up to Manti Te'o, while Dan Fox moves into the two-deep as a back-up to Calabrese; Calabrese himself has reportedly had a hamstring problem, but apparently is expected to play
:: Nick Tausch is listed as the kickoff specialist again; however, this position has alternated considerably between Tausch and David Ruffer
