The two-deep depth chart for the Arkansas State game has been released and is available on the official site. Like there is every year there’s a lot of co-starters on these early lists. The most interesting notes on here is that we have co-starters at right right guard in [tag]Chris Hall[/tag] and [tag]Cedric Dockery[/tag] and also at both safety positions. We’ll look into the depth chart in more detail tonight tomorrow.

Oklahoma commit Herman Mitchell tragically murdered. Teammates learned of his death on way to scrimmage.
