Depth Chart Released

Arkansas just released its depth chart for the season opener and there are a few positions that stand out:

Four true freshmen have been named starters, including wide receiver Jarius Wright, fullback Mitchell Bailey, weakside linebacker Jelani Smith and free safety Elton Ford.

Redshirt freshman Nathan Dick is listed ahead of Tyler Wilson as the No. 2 quarterback, but there is an “or” beside Wilson’s name, meaning he could get the nod over Dick.

Sophomore Wade Grayson, who has looked good during preseason camp, was named a starting offensive guard over senior Mitch Petrus. Meanwhile, junior Lucas Miller has jumped ahead of sophomore Carlton Salters for the starting “W” wide receiver position.

Senior Antwain Robinson is listed as the starting defensive end over redshirt freshman Jake Bequette, who was bothered by a concussion during fall camp. And perhaps most interesting, senior linebacker Elston Forte isn’t listed anywhere on the depth chart.

Forte, voted a captain by his teammates, has been bothered by an undisclosed injury.
