I don't think anyone would have guessed that Jackson McGohan would play the most of all the freshmen TE.

Does this include special teams? Don't really give a shite about Stamps being on kickoff.

Of course it includes special teams
Getting on the field in any game is a big deal for a freshman

I would also like to know how much time they've gotten in their primary position, but this is at least helpful from a redshirt perspective.

I get that, but the knock is not BK doesn't play freshman on special teams.

I just feel like it skews the data a bit on the skill positions where they often play on ST as freshmen. A percentage of snaps would offer far more detail, then saying they played in the game.

I feel like the redshirt is dead in the Transfer Portal era.

Well, with doing absolutely no research or digging, I can remember right off top that 11 on that list have played very meaningful snaps.

That number is probably higher, but I can easily pick out 11.

Coach O really did leave a shitshow. Kelly is building Depth but is it going to be Top Quality depth? They are playing out of necessity more than anything. There are some good ones already just wish we had more like Weeks and womack that have star written all over them already.

I guess from that perspective it would be more helpful to have this information from other teams.

But they're still going to redshirt guys and attempt to have program guys. They going to manage the roster to the ideal during the season and work within the reality in the offseason.

If anyone tries to knock him for not playing freshman, they haven't been paying attention lol.

Last year we had 4 true freshman starters, I beleive all at least made freshman-all conference.

This year, we have Jackson, Weeks, Markway, Pimpton, Womack, and Yaites all getting significant playing time with the ones. He has also tried to force Heard into the starting 5 on the line, but it hasn't worked yet.

He’s played in all 4 games, but only 8 snaps? What’s he on, punt team?

It's telling that every DB has played except Kylin (who's hurt). If anything, it says to me they're actively trying to get their best 4-5 guys out there, which is a good thing.

Conversely, look at OL and WR, we're deep and will likely have a number of redshirts.
