Purdue at Nebraska: Depth Charts!

The first depth chart of the Gerad Parker era is out and it bears a striking resemblance to the final depth chart under Hazell.

Offense

WR 7 DeAngelo Yancey, Sr., 6-2, 205, Atlanta, Ga.

21 Anthony Mahoungou, Jr., 6-3, 210, Paris, France

WR 18 Cameron Posey, 5th, 6-1, 192, Boca Raton, Fla.

10 Gregory Phillips, Jr., 6-0, 201, Lithonia, Ga.

LT 66 Cameron Cermin, 5th, 6-5, 323, College Station, Texas

75 Jalen Neal, Jr., 6-8, 315, Tempe, Ariz.

LG 72 Jason King, 5th, 6-4, 310, Little Rock, Ark.

55 Michael Mendez, R-Fr., 6-4, 305, Los Fresnos, Texas

C 53 Kirk Barron, So., 6-2, 300, Mishawaka, Ind.

68 Peyton Truitt, R-Fr., 6-5, 296, West Lafayette, Ind.

RG 70 Jordan Roos, 5th, 6-4, 301, Celina, Texas

55 Michael Mendez, R-Fr., 6-4, 305, Los Fresnos, Texas

RT 79 Matt McCann, R-Fr., 6-6, 314, Fishers, Ind.

75 Jalen Neal, Jr., 6-8, 315, Tempe, Ariz.

TE 88 Cole Herdman, So., 6-4, 251, Leesburg, Va.

89 Brycen Hopkins, R-Fr., 6-5, 239, Nashville, Tenn.

WR 3 Bilal Marshall, 5th, 6-2, 201, Miami, Fla.

13 Terrance Landers, Fr., 6-4, 200, Dayton, Ohio

QB 11 David Blough, So., 6-1, 200, Carrollton, Texas

2 Elijah Sindelar, R-Fr., 6-4, 236, Princeton, Ky.

RB 8 Markell Jones, So., 5-11, 210, Columbus, Ind.

37 Brian Lankford-Johnson, Fr., 6-0, 195, St. Paul, Minn.

25 Tario Fuller, R-Fr., 6-0, 192, Sugar Hill, Ga.

The only change here is officially moving Lankford-Johnson to Jones’ primary backup. Fuller has not played in the last two games, but Jones and Lankford-Johnson are still a little banged up with shoulder injuries. Jones certainly has looked limited, but Purdue has barely blocked for him too.

Defense

DT 54 Jake Replogle, Sr., 6-5, 275, Centerville, Ohio

59 Langston Newton, 5th, 6-3, 278, Indianapolis, Ind.

NG 18 Eddy Wilson, So., 6-4, 300, Pontiac, Mich.

66 Alex Criddle, Fr., 6-4, 309, Broken Arrow, Okla.

DE 95 Evan Panfil, Sr., 6-5, 270, New Lenox, Ill.

56 Wyatt Cook, R-Fr., 6-2, 240, Westminster, Md.

DE 45 Austin Larkin, Jr., 6-3, 259, University City, Mo.

or 13 Gelen Robinson, Jr., 6-1, 275, Schererville, Ind.

Will 21 Markus Bailey, R-Fr., 6-1, 235, Columbus, Ohio

42 Andy James Garcia, 5th, 6-0, 223, Miami, Fla.

Mike 4 Ja’Whaun Bentley, Jr., 6-2, 250, Glenarden, Md.

16 Garrett Hudson, Jr., 6-2, 245, Tallahassee, Fla.

Buck 36 Danny Ezechukwu, Jr., 6-2, 240, Lithonia, Ga.

29 Jimmy Herman, 5th, 6-4, 240, Carmel, Ind.

LCB 2 Da’Wan Hunte, Jr., 5-9, 188, Miami, Fla.

23 Josh Hayes, Fr., 6-0, 181, Indianapolis, Ind.

SS 3 Leroy Clark, Sr., 5-10, 197, Miami, Fla.

7 Robert Gregory, 5th, 6-1, 225, Chicago, Ill.

FS 27 Navon Mosley, Fr., 6-0, 181, Bloomfield, Mich.

26 C.J. Parker, Jr., 6-2, 205, Menifee, Calif.

RCB 24 Tim Cason, 5-11, 195, Clarkston, Mich.

6 Myles Norwood, Jr., 6-0, 174, Arlington, Texas

The defense is exactly the same as last week, but both Ja’Whaun Bentley and Jake Replogle were out against Iowa. I don’t know how much of a different they would have made with such a putrid performance against the run, but they are Purdue’s two best defenders (even if it looks like Bentley is not 100% still from his knee injury). It should be noted that Lorenzo Neal has played a lot more in the middle than Criddle or Newton as the listed backups.
