It has become commonplace for Purdue Football to not release a depth chart.
It appears in the media guide before the game and Mike Carmin from the Journal and Courier generally Tweets it out.
Until then, it is a full time guess during #CovidSzn.
As of now, it still looks like we are going without Rondale Moore, 4 weeks into the season.
King Doerue appears to be an afterthought with how Zander Horvath has come steam rolling out.
I am not even sure if those two are hurt or if it is something else. Coach Brohm disclosed Cam Craig surgery and said George was still banged up, but he did not mention injuries with the other two.
Who knows.
Well, here is my best guess - again.
