Brandon Wegher - #3 RB at worst, slot guy, KR.
Micah Hyde - Will see substantial time at corner in the first two games.
Keenan Davis - I suspect will have a year to the tune of 25 catches and 400 yards.

From all I've heard about Davis so far this summer, I'm hoping he has a pretty big impact on our air game this season.

I also hope Wegher sees a lot of time on Saturday, because I can't stand Paki as a feature back.

auburn,

dee ford, de, looks like he is going to get some playing time, wokring himself in

nosa eguae, dt/de, also looks like getting rotated in at dt.

darren bates, ss, pushing for the starting job as well.

Jonny · 08-31-2009, 02:27 AM

Mohamed Sanu is going to be amazing. Ahead of where Britt was at this stage.

Savage and CB Logan Ryan will play, along with maybe a few others.

How'd everyone's true freshman do?
For Tennessee it looks like we have one of our best recruiting classes in a long time.
Bryce Brown rushed for 104 yards and a TD and looked very powerful on only 11 carries as the primary backup HB.
David Oku had 42 rushing yards and 2 TDs on just 8 carries.
Marsalis Teague led the Vols in receiving with 6 catches for 86 yards and a TD.
Nu'Keese Richardson had 3 catches for 30 yards and returned 3 punts for 30 yards as well.
A few of our defensive freshman saw some significant playing time and Zach Rogers had a catch for 11 yards as well.

Any other true freshman games of note?

critesy · 09-06-2009, 03:57 PM

for auburn, darren bates fs, got an int and like 4 tackles.
dee ford, de, got some pressure off the edge looking good.
deangelo benton, wr, no catches but got 2 pass interference called on him.
emory blake, wr, got thrown to once and dropped it in the end zone.

Yup, I love how no one thinks MU has no chance to win the North, but at the same time barely any of our true freshmen will see the field this year. Moe and Lawrence were the only ones I noticed that played against Illinois and that was late.

Bonner and Washington are the two that excite me the most based on what I have read and heard. Lawrence looked a little overwhelmed late against Illinois, but he has been ripping it up in practice from what I have heard.

apparently James Washington and Rashard Smith were the only NC State players who knew there was a game on Thursday. Not a good sign when the only two standouts you have are true freshmen

JT Jag · 09-07-2009, 04:09 AM

No one. Though several true Freshmen will be contributing.

I'll just do the stats since I didn't get to watch the game, and all I've seen is a 10 minute highlight package on youtube.

Michigan

Tate Forcier, QB-13/20 (65%), 179 yards, 3 TD's, long of 44
11 carries, 37 yards, 3.4 per carry

Denard Robinson, QB-2/4 (50%), 18 yards
11 carries, 74 yards, 1 TD, 6.7 per carry, long of 43

Vincent Smith, RB-6 carries, 23 yards, 3.8 per carry

Craig Roh, OLB/DE-4 tackles, 1 TFL, 0.5 sacks

Will Campbell, DT-1 tackle, 1 TFL

If any other Michigan guys that were able to watch the game want to chip in with some actual analysis or some guys that played but didn't get any stats (like Oline), feel free.

I saw Jon Bostic at MLB early in the 1st quarter against CSU, he's expected to get a lot of PT as it is. Debose will definitely get time, Gillislee scored, but nobody really will start as a freshman for this UF team. A lot of freshman will get a lot of PT, as always, though.

Babylon · 09-07-2009, 05:59 PM

James Johnson UW wide receiver had 6 catches for 63 yds and a TD against LSU. He's going to get all the work he wants this year.

Did Jelani Jenkins play?

Geomar · 09-12-2009, 07:43 AM

Miami,

Brandon Washington - OL - He can play all positions on the line and could be starting by the 3rd game.

Olivier Vernon - DE - He is starting, he had 2 tackles and 0.5 tackles for loss in a tough first game to start against FSU.

Ray Ray Armstrong - S - Played a lot on ST's and made a big tackle on Greg Reid on ST's. He will probably be in the two deep in a few games as he pickups the D.

We are basically right now playing a lot of, rs freshman, sophomores, and juniors at Miami and we look damn good. Our offense is going to be one of the best in the nation this season. With one of the top WR corps and RB corps in the nation and a smart QB in Jacory we will continue to do well with our NFL OC Mark Whipple, who happened to coach McNabb and Roethlisberger in the nfl. :D

True Freshman Brandon Wegher in action.

I am admittedly thoroughly impressed. Yes, he's caucasian.

Dion Lewis is playing extremely well over at Pitt.
