Need to kill some time on another rainy day? Well, here’s something that could take up a few minutes.
  Arkansas coach Bobby Petrino released his post-spring depth chart on Friday, and as expected, there are no surprises. For the most part, the depth chart looks how we thought it would.
  Sophomore Ryan Mallett is listed as the starting quarterback, and redshirt freshman Tyler Wilson is behind him as the backup. Redshirt freshman Jim Youngblood is penciled in as the No. 3 quarterback.
  Petrino said during a news conference last month to wrap up spring practice that Mallett would be his starting quarterback if the season started today. But Petrino added that Wilson would come in on the first series of the second quarter and run the offense.
  One position that included some shakeup is running back, where sophomore De’Anthony Curtis has moved up to the No. 2 spot behind returning starter Michael Smith. At one time, Curtis was buried on the depth chart and it wasn’t sure how many snaps he’d get in practice.
  But a slew of injuries in the spring – senior Brandon Barnett (broken leg), freshman Knile Davis (broken ankle), sophomore Dennis Johnson (swollen foot) – cleared room for Curtis and he looked impressive at times running the football. Of course, he needs to avoid his fumbling problems.
  Sophomore Broderick Green, who’s still awaiting word from the NCAA on whether he’ll be eligible to play next season, is penciled in as the No. 3 tailback on the depth chart. Interestingly, Johnson has slipped to No. 4 and Barnett is behind him as the No. 5 running back.
  The rest of the positions feature little change – aside from junior Van Stumon moving ahead of sophomore Mitchell Bailey as the starting fullback. The offensive line, wide receivers, defensive line and linebackers are the same.
  Meanwhile, senior Matt Harris remains ahead of sophomore Tramain Thomas for the starting free safety position.Â

  So, did that kill a few minutes and beat watching more rain fall? If not, maybe this will help.
