Depth Chart Notes
Offense
There's no surprise who will lead the Frogs this season at quarterback. Not only will Josh Hoover look to build on a decent freshman year, but the Frogs have added some intriguing new weapons for the offense to have that explosive element they were missing last year. Some aspects of the offense to watch throughout the season are the wide receiver group and the offensive line.
The Horned Frogs are fairly deep when it comes to receivers with a lot of veterans coming back from last year's squad, not to mention one of the more dominant receivers in the country, Savion Williams. The offensive line was a competitive position throughout fall camp so we could see movement there during the season as well. Sonny Dykes spoke highly of the younger guys in the offensive line group during fall camp saying that they closed the gap to the starters quicker than he had imagined.
Make no mistake, the absences of Avery Helm, Vernon Glover, and Paul Oyewale are significant losses on the defensive side of the ball. On the bright side, the Frogs get back one of their leaders and best linebackers, Johnny Hodges, on defense for the first time since November of last year.
Another change the Horned Frogs made after the 2023-24 season was parting ways with defensive coordinator Joe Gillespie. Andy Avalos takes over on defense after being Boise State's head coach for three years. Avalos also led a dominant defense at Oregon when he was the defensive coordinator in the 2019-20 season.
Special Teams
On the special teams side of the ball, Kyle Lemmerman sticks out the most when reading the depth chart. The true freshman will be handling field goals and extra points for the Horned Frogs after being ranked the nation's best kicker coming out of high school by 247 Sports. From what we saw during fall camp, Lemmerman will be fun to watch when the game is on the line.
