Notes:

After a disappointing spring and summer, WR Kyle Jefferson now sits behind Maurice Moore as the starting wideout opposite David Gilreath, despite having an impressive freshman campaign.

Following a solid summer camp, LB Jaevery McFadden will be starting between seniors Jonathan Casillas and DeAndre Levy. Elijah Hodge sits third in that spot behind Culmer St. Jean.

Not surprisingly to those who watched spring practices, Jay Valai beat out Aubrey Pleasant for the starting strong safety spot.
