The Al.com article was posted at 9:30 AM that tweet was at 11:22 AM
. That dude makes stuff up though, it is pretty clear.

No doubt. He came out and said that Jahleel Billingsley would transfer when he had absolutely no evidence. The athletic department should tell him to back off. He's a problem.

Auburn writer thinks that Robinson is one of our best defenders ? Surely they realize that he's third string. Talented player but not a starter. They're just pissed that he flipped his commitment from them during the recruiting process.

Gotta love people commenting on the situation and not knowing a damn thing about the kid.

They would be singing a different tune if he was one of their players. But, predictably, you have a mob mentality when someone important has a knock against them. Although I happen to think that McKinley Jackson getting arrested for serious felonies a couple of weeks ago is a more serious matter. Funny how that story seems to have been swept under the rug and hardly mentioned since.

That article is completely different than the depth chart I saw earlier on Twitter.

Interesting that JoJo Earle is listed as an “or” with Bolden at H in this one

The one I saw had Slade as the holder, which was surprising to me since it’s typically a QB.

I am officially excited and ready for some football.

Based on one spring football game, you're gonna have a hard time convincing me that Agiye Hall isn't gonna be on the field early and often.

Here are my official 2021 Depth Chart Monday observations. It's too dang long because I'm too dang excited to have a game to watch this weekend...
A lot of times the most interesting things can be who isn't listed rather than who is. And we should all know by now that even in the "or" co-starter listings, the order matters.
- DJ Dale still undisputed starter, bleh. Hopefully he's healthy and Smith can emerge to take the majority of snaps.
- No freshman made the 2-deep on the DLine. Not shocking considering the depth at the position and the lack of buzz around them coming out of camp. I don't think this means they're struggling or anything, but I was looking to potentially see Damon Payne listed.
- King Mwikuta doesn't make two deep, Dallas Turner does. Transfer portal bound again?
- Demouy Kennedy doesn't make two deep. Really thought he'd be a player for us, I remember him being really involved in special teams last year. Talent at all linebacker positions is overwhelming though.
- I'm assuming LaBryan Ray's spot on 2nd team is more of a placeholder than anything else? It'll be interesting to see how he gets into the rotation if he can ever get healthy.
- Malachi Moore listed as the first in a co-starter situation with Branch at Star. Is there really a potential battle happening there, or is that just reflective of Branch's position as the Money which doesn't get listed on the depth chart?
- Hellams listed ahead of Branch at FS. Does that mean Hellams is still the starter in base/nickel when healthy?
- Pierce Quick not even in the two-deep going into year 3. Really looking grim on his future. I thought he would be in the mix start for sure by now.
- Tommy Brockermeyer also not in the two-deep. Looks like he couldn't get past Amari Kight. That has me a little worried because I don't think Kight is an SEC caliber player.
- Kendall Randolph listed as the undisputed starter! Coaches must be feeling really confident in him to list him by himself even after missing this time with injury. I still think JC takes over at some point but hopefully this means Kendall will be solid nonetheless.
- Jaeden Roberts is ahead of Terrance Ferguson, who was a much more heralded prospects. A lot of people liked Roberts long term potential, maybe he's getting there faster than expected.
- I'm assuming B-Rob getting the solo #1 spot is more of a reward for a great program guy and veteran. Hope he has an amazing year but there's no reason to think he'll be getting significantly more carries than the other guys.
- Jameson in the top spot by himself just confirms what we've been hearing.
- I figured Billingsley would be 2nd team, but behind Tennison is rough. Major Tennison has never impressed. He has been average, for a backup, at best. Billingsley must still be deep in the dog house to be as talented as he is and yet still behind Tennison.
- Looks like Jojo is coming for Slade's spot. Hopefully we have learned from past lessons and let him take over sooner rather than later, if the talent is there.
- All four freshman make the 2-deep at receiver. Other than Jojo, Hall is the only one at the front of his "or" listing, which probably tells you he's ahead of the others. But having them all listed is probably a good sign long term for their ability to make an impact. It also likely calls into question how much impact the 2020 class of WRs will ever have...
LAST BUT CERTAINLY NOT LEAST
- In the biggest upset of fall camp you have KNEELAND HIBBETT as the undisputed starter at long snapper. He was so dang good they didn't even list a backup. Seriously though, he was the least expected person to win the job out of the 4 candidates... by a lot. Hopefully he continues the tradition of automatic, perfectly placed snaps.

Quiet a bit of positive buzz in camp with speedy Freshman JoJo Earle. Much like fellow Texan J.Waddle was getting as a true Freshman.

I hope Hibbett’s arms are sore from the amount of PAT he serves up against the Hurricanes

Slade played everything including QB in HS and both of the Spring games had him attempt a pass... (1st one was good, this year it was pitiful)... But could see Slade as a Holder who could scoop up a bad snap and either run it or throw it... seems like a good thing; but Tyson is 1 and Young 2 on this chart

I’m fine with it being Tyson. Trust me.
To me holder is a position everyone takes for granted. They just assume a great catch/ hold/spin/tilt. Every. Single. Time.
Posted on 8/30/21 at 3:17 pm to JJ27
JJ, I hope that you and your family are staying safe down there 
Posted on 8/30/21 at 3:23 pm to Cobrasize
Immediate family and myself are fine. Light rain and wind. I have family around New Orleans that can’t leave their homes due to downed trees and zero power. Thanks for asking.
