Golloday has to sit out a year. No disrespect to Glasper, but if he was going to stand out, he has definitely had the opportunity considering Brown and Sebastiano missed quite a few games and they only played Brescacin on the outside during those scenarios.

That's why I lean towards Mitchell and Blake getting quite a few reps as they are outside players and seem to have been highly touted.

RE: Which True Freshman Will Play?
They were high on Mitchell last spring and has good size. I think he is going to see the field a lot. I think senior over Blake will play this year. my guess is they are going to give hallmon every shot to start. Have the coaches talked a lot about brooks playing a lot or is that just from the depth chart?

Depth chart and age more than anything.

At 5-11, 150...I think Senior is gonna need a year in the weight room.

I believe a freshman safety or two will play some this fall. We are thin there and Brandon Mayes may have to play corner.

Emmett is out for the year...had shoulder surgery this week.

Re: Logan. Agree with the general consensus that he was bad last year, but Carey called him the best player in spring ball, so it's pretty much a lock he'll be starting at CB. With Moore moving to S though, there's literally no expierence behind him.

Here are your other CBs on the roster:
25 Emmett Lynch CB 6-0 157 FR Chicago, IL/Rich Central
31 Anthony Brooks CB 5-11 189 RS SO Detroit, MI/Warren Mott
30 Tifonte Hunt CB 5-9 164 FR Harvey, IL/Thornton Township
39 Zeb McLaurin CB 5-11 179 RS FR Chicago, IL/St. Ignatius Prep
32 Jimmy Russell CB 5-10 194 RS FR DeKalb, IL/DeKalb
43 Albert Smalls CB 6-1 206 FR Miramar, FL/Monsignor Pace
28 Will Daniels DB 5-11 207 FR Green Bay, WI/Preble
5 Mayomi Olootu DB 6-2 173 FR Allen, Texas/Allen
21 Deion Hallmon DB 5-10 162 FR Weston, FL/Cypress Bay

It wouldn't be a surprise at all to have a couple true freshmen seeing huge playing time there this year. I think that's how they got some of the talent to come here that they did. I would be pretty damn shocked if Hallmon redshirts, and I think there's a fairly decent shot he's starting opposite Logan against the Hoes.

Logan
Hallmon
Brooks
Olootu

That position is really scary, especially if somebody gets hurt. I would imagine Moore will be playing that Demetrius Stone S/CB position and flipping between the two, though. It looks like they have Mayes working at both spots as well, which will help too. I would guess those are the 5-6 guys who see time there.
