If it happens taking Texas out of the south and mo. out of the north that will leave the big 12, now now big 10 in bad shape. Only answer is to add a couple of big name schools. Steve your probably somewhat right about it being too early to predict starting lineup for next year, but you can bet the coaches know the potential of their recruits and this list will remain close to the same for all practical purposes.

Steve – Who’s drawing conclusions? Who has prognosticated anything on here? It’s perfectly normal to release a 2 deep, especially before any kind of practice is to take place. It’s released pretty much for the exact reason you stated as well, which is to motivate, and let these kids and fans have kind of an idea as to what the future could look like. I think even a football novice recognizes the weight that a spring 2 deep carries come August.

I think you are making WAY too much of this depth chart. A depth chart before spring practices even begin serves no purpose whatsover except to motivate certain players that the coaching staff either wants to reward (for hard work during the off season) or warn (for not working hard enough). That’s it. This depth chart will look NOTHING like the depth chart in the fall or even coming out of spring practice. To draw any conclusions about next season based on this depth chart is pure foolishness.

Lynn – It’s been out there about Haywood. He may end up in a JUCO it’s sad to say. I hope not, but it is a real possibility. We’ll know for sure by May or April.

What is this reference to Austin Haywood questionable to qualify? Did everyone know this already. Nothing was written during recruiting. Is there a chance he will make it? Thanks

Good job. You answered my question about RJ Washington as I was looking at the depth chart. I know he has the physical skills. I wonder what the issue is?

Agreed, nice info for sure. I also believe we need to make long term plans for center. Habern has been injured more than he’s been healthy since he’s been at OU.

Also, Jake if you ever get time, fill us in on what the brass around OU are thinking about Texas’ potential move to either the PAC/Big 10. I don’t believe it’ll happen, but you just never know.
