DEPTH CHARTS were only designed
as a simplistic gauge for listing
players that departed and players
that received the most playing
experience (consistent starters).
NationalChamps.net recognizes
the importance of missing personnel
data not listed such as redshirts,
transfers, injuries, incoming
recruits, back ups and alternates.
Their coverage will begin with
our full 2012 Preseason Preview
due out this coming spring. |

QUICK
TAKES |
12/21/11
- Baylor
will be ranked in the Top
10 of the preseason polls
for one reason only...RGIII
rules. Should he decide to
leave for the NFL the Bears
could fall completely out
of the Top 25.
- Because
of his arm, RGIII is capable
of redefining the college
quarterback position.
- The
second reason Baylor will
be ranked in the Top 10 of
the preseason polls is the
hope for a better defense.
The secondary has quality
returning starters across
the board and the defensive
ends are all back to bring
the pressure.
- Four
of the five defensive backs
returning did manage to garner
All-Big 12 Honorable Mention
status.
- MAJOR
FACTOID THAT MUST CHANGE:
Six of the top eight tacklers
from 2011 were defensive backs.
There is a major concern trying
to find someone in this front
seven to plug the middle.
Coaches are already combing
the JUCO recruiting ranks.
- Losing
top receiver Kendall Wright
is not going to help Griffin's
chance as the second ever
Heisman repeat winner. Everyone
else is back though. Look
for Tevin Reese, Terrance
Williams or Lanear Sampson
to take over the slack by
committee. This is not a unit
of concern.
- The
most heated position battle
this off-season will be finding
a replacement for departed
running back Terrance Ganaway,
who set a Baylor single-season
rushing record with his total
of 1,317 yards.
