does anyone know if a link to the depth chart is still on the site after the revisions?
I can't seem to find it.

Depth chart question

Keep looking, if you find it let us know.
Used to be as simple as ABC, but then it disappeared------along with almost everything else.

Thanks for posting this.
I look for Grant McKinniss to take over punting duties. Gave him a scholarship for a reason. And it will help keep stress off Austing MacGinnis.
I too look for Landon Young to push for significant time at Tackle.
I know we won't see it to keep him fresh for RB, but, it would be fun to see Boom with King returning kickoffs. King looked good as a Freshman last year. And Boom is Boom. I think they both are homerun threats every time the ball is in their hands.
Young, Haynes, Toth, Meyers, Meadows. Four upperclassmen and a 5* freshman. I can live with that starting line.
DL is worrisome, but looking at it as a whole makes it seem less lethal to lose Meant. Still a huge blow, and we may need to put a freshman into the fire, but the bodies are there if we really truly need them.
Blake Bone? Why is he so far down the depth chart. I thought he was going to make a great big target for TD receptions in the red zone.
If they're going to play 9 or so WR's, and I fully expect them to do so, then that means he will be in the WR rotation and certainly he could be part of their red zone package.
Educate a poor ignorant soul on the differences between each WR position, their roles, and why say Greenwood could not or would not play the X. Why is Bone better suited for the X as opposed to the Z? Seems to me like the guys who have similar body styles to him, Holtzclaw & Ross, are playing the Z while he is playing the X. So, why is he playing a different WR position than those two?
Disclaimer: Nothing about this post is meant to be sarcastic, mean, or negative in any way. I legitimately am ignorant to many of the differences between the X and Z receivers. I know the slot (Y) receiver, and understand his role, but don't know the real differences on why X and Z can't be interchanged as much. Also, is there any significant difference in the Y and the F?
I can not speak to why our coaches put the players where they put them as I'm not privy to their staff meetings nor their criteria for those positions. You can look up (google) split end (X), flanker (Z) or slot receiver (Y & H - or F in our offense) and get a feel for the traditional roles and abilities/measurables for those positions.
What I can tell you is for as long as I can remember at UK, the X was the X and the Y was the Y and not much cross training occurred. Badet is our starter at X which is typically our left end or split end which is up on the LOS. However, he did get some work in the slot during the spring. Juice Johnson is our starting slot receiver (Y) but he got some work at Z in the spring. How that carries through to the fall I can't say as I'm not privy to practices. Were they doing that to make sure they had the right guys in the right positions or just because you're much more short handed in the spring than in the fall? I can't say.
I can tell you that the players listed in the depth chart performed at those positions last Saturday when we were at full strength and the younger guys likely won't cross train as they need as many reps at that one position to know what they're doing to enable them to get in the game and therefore help the team.
You know the following information but I'm writing it in case others don't.
X receiver is simply the split end - split out wide (usually on the left side) from the formation and up on the LOS
Z receiver is the flanker - split out wide (usually on the right) and off the LOS
Y is either the TE or his replacement.
F is the fullback or his replacement in a spread formation.
There is really no cookie cutter qualities (other than the ability to catch the ball) for any of the inside or 'slot' positions as those will be determined by who the coaches want in the game situationally. All I know is what I see and have seen and then post from that perspective.
It's pretty sad someone has to link information from a completely different site. Rivals should be ashamed yet I doubt they are since they already have our money.
The X receiver has to be able to get off the line, take the hit, and move on, where as the Z, being behind the line, can use his speed to get clear. That is why your smaller faster players are mostly the Z, and the stronger bigger ones are mostly the X.
Which is not the case in our team. That's why I said I don't know what criteria our staff uses.
Also the X usually is more of a possession type receive and gets those Over-the-shoulder sideline catches that are thrown over top of the DB, and fades etc. to take advantage of his height. That and the reasons you mention are why I have never understood Badet playing the X, the previous OC did the same thing with him so there must be some logic in it.
You are aware that this is a free forum? On HOB you will find the depth chart and roster in about 30 threads. That said the depth chart is now really worthless since fall camp is underway. A lot of changes can be made before now and the first game
I think he used LaPlace Transforms on that one, you know, where you transform the problem into another dimension, solve it, and then transform it back for the answer.
This is what has me kind of confused about Bone. One of the complaints from people here about Bone has been his inability to play tougher and get off the press and get up field. Since he's not doing that it would seem like he might be better suited for the Z. While he isn't a speed guy that can get clear, he wouldn't have to fight through an immediate press and he could then use his size against the DB. I don't know... just kind of strange that our other two big tall receivers are both Z guys while Bone is an X.
I was actually referring to the fact of how bad the roster/depth chart formats are now that rivals has changed. Throw in the recruiting search format and it's even worse.
