About three weeks ago, Ole Miss release an updated depth chart in the lead-up to SEC Media days. Most of the names on that table are written in ink: Jordan Ta’amu will start at quarterback, the trio of A.J. Brown, D.K. Metcalf and DaMarkus Lodge will stay atop the wide receiver group and the entire offensive line is set.
But some positions, particularly on the defensive side, are still up for grabs. Those will be settled over the next couple weeks during fall camp, which formally opened on Friday morning. This’ll be the last opportunity for players to make their bid for the starting lineup in the Sept.
