Urban Meyer and Ohio State didn't change their tune with regards to who led at open starting positions throughout training camp, so the first depth chart of the season hardly contains many surprises.
The Buckeyes released their two-deep for their season opener against Bowling Green Tuesday afternoon.
A noticeable change from outside the norm comes at kicker. Meyer named walk-on Tyler Durbin his starting kicker Monday for the matchup with the Falcons following a groin injury to incumbent Sean Nuernberger.
Notes:
- Ohio State lists nine starting positions with an "OR."
- Though it says this is an "unofficial depth chart," it appears true freshman Michael Jordan will start at left guard.
- While Sam Hubbard was a presumed starter, Jalyn Holmes did enough in camp to force himself into the discussion.
- Craig Fada, a former walk-on, is listed as a backup to MLB Raekwon McMillan, a former five-star recruit.
- True freshman Jordan Fuller is listed as Damon Webb's backup.
- Expected to work into the two-deep at safety, Cam Burrows' name is absent from the depth chart.
