Boston College Depth Chart For Northwestern Game

PrintThe year's first depth chart is out and the biggest surprise has to be that Dave Shinskie will be starting at QB. Just kidding. Definitely the biggest news on the chart is that Andre Williams will be playing and of course is listed as the starter at running back. Woohoo, let's not jump off the bridge yet. On the other hand Nathan Richman is out, and the magical carousel of offensive linemen will continue.
Secondly, Hampton Hughes will be starting at safety. Yes, the same Hampton Hughes who was just converted to the position less than a month ago. Playing against two all Big Ten WR's and Dan Persa. Suffice it to say, I am a little worried about the pass defense on Saturday. That being said, Donnie Fletcher -- who was held out of the scrimmage -- is back on the depth charge which is huge for the Eagles.
Also on the defensive end of the ball Steele Divitto ended up beating out Nick Clancy for the start SLB. Kaleb Ramsey will be ready to go after getting dinged up in fall practices. Also there are a ton of freshman and redshirted freshman set to play on defense. Spaz must be happy with some of his recent recruits progress to put them up there.
Also the wide receiver depth chart is different than usual. Last year, Tranquill would have a FB listed and two WR's on his depth chart. This year Kevin Rogers has three wide receivers listed as starters and no full back. Very strange. Will he be incorporating more 3 WR sets or dare I say some spread offense? This may just be a foreshadow into an offensive gameplan that is very foreign to BC fans who have watched the team recently.

Wait a minute
You mean to tell me this guy is overloading the field with WRs, a position we’re deep at, and deemphasizing the FBs, a position we’re weak at? I hope Spaz has Tranq on speed dial; this Rogers kid is suspect.

In the spirit of our alum ‘Freezer’ Raji and his inspiration ‘Fridge’ Perry, I’d rather see First and Quinn! (he, like Raji, runs a 4.9).
I think we can call him The ICE Man or maybe the ESKIMO after his fictional inspiration, Quinn the Eskimo, the Mighty Quinn. see Mighty Quinn
Lot of freshman already...
But how about 1st and Ricci. Isn’t that kid like 330?

Oy
I gotta go back and take another look at last year’s two deep for the Weber St game. Again, it seems like we have a ton of freshman.
I’m all sorts of jacked up for Saturday. Let’s go Eagles, beat the Wildcats!
Here’s the Kent State game depth chart, FWIW

Holder is not one off our extra 5 QBs
H Gerald Levano 6-2 210 Jr.
Ryan Quigley 6-3 188 Sr.
Too bad. QBs are good athletes with good hands who can do a trick play once or twice a season – IF we had a coach other than Spaz. Think of MSU burning ND last year on fake FG!
Richman is hurt
But listed as backup? Is he out or no?

I believe he’s out for Saturday.

MAKE IT HAPPEN RICHMAN!
let’s hope he recovers very soon. He is a key to our success. I am still expecting him to play… crazy…but I can see him playing as a last minute change if the shots kick in. Not exactly Willis Reed or Paul Pierce coming back from injury to psych up the crowd, but it would be a great sign on hustle and commitment. Guy really wants to play his senior year, NO DOUBT. MAKE IT HAPPEN RICHMAN! Be the Captain you are!
Really like this line-up
On any given play you have:
A deep threat (Larmond/Amidon)
A jump ball getter (Momah/Coleman)
An intermediate route runner (Swigert/Elliott/Spiffy)
An over the middle threat (Pantale/Anderson)
A beast in the backfield (Andre/hopefully Montel)
If this doesn’t really stretch a defense thin I don’t know what will.
Could We Agree Not To Joke About Certain Things
My page stopped loading after “The year’s first depth chart is out and the biggest surprise has to be that Dave Shinskie will be starting at QB. Just kidding.” I went crazy for that second.

Sorry Wisconsin, I couldn’t help myself.

Looks good on paper...
but, it’s time to play the game already. This is an awful lot of freshman and sophomores. I think Spaz has made a decision to play those he recruited ahead of others. I hope he’s right or it could make for a demoralized locker room. If I see any more seniors opting to leave…I’ll be sold on my own theory. Good luck B.C..
