New Depth Chart, Blah Blah Off-Season

I've been doing some fun stuff with spreadsheets these past few days, and as a result, I want to do sort of a "test post" to see how it looks. I thought I would update you all with what I consider the 2-deep depth chart as of spring ball.

Of course, so many things will change come August when the team takes the practice field, but I thought it would be fun to kill some off-season time with some speculation.

So there you go. This, along with so many other statistical spreadsheets will be adorning this site as the season progresses.

I really really really don't want to get into the habit of just posting links. I think as a somewhat serious blogger (really?), you should be able to generate some worthwhile content...however, it is mid-July. And as we get ready to gear up for the season, honest to goodness content may be a bit hard to come by. So I apologize for all of the "filler".

Also, I am going to be participating in the mgoblog's blogpoll this year. As a fellow mgoblogger, I am very happy to have my vote counted. All hail the king of Michigan blogs!

And, I'll also be doing the Big Ten Bloggers Pick'em for the first time! This is a pick'em game administered by Gopher Nation (long live the "Nation" blogs!). We have probably 20 or so Big Ten blogs participating, and only about 25% are Penn State blogs...so it should be fun!
