Since 2005, SMU has started 8, 8, 11, 10, 10, 10, 10, 9, 9, 9, 10, 5, 8, and 7 white players. In 2019 they look to jump up to 9.
WR Tyler Page was the third leading WR last year but only had 12 catches. Not sure if he will be a starter in 2019 but his role will definitely expand, he had the longest touchdown for a white player last year in the FBS with a 92 yard touchdown catch.
Lots of good depth on this team and a ton of white walk ons who could eventually see the field. RB TJ McDaniel is a future starter and S/LB Trevor Denbow should make a lot of plays this year in a hybrid role. Former QB Collin Rock is likely to be the top backup at safety.
I am slightly worried about the lack of OL depth behind the 4 white starters.
Offense
QB Shane Buechele
*WR Tyler Page
TE Ryan Becker
LT Beau Morris
LG Alan Ali
C Hayden Howerton
RG Nick Dennis
Defense
DE Turner Coxe
S/LB Trevor Denbow
Players to watch:
RB TJ McDaniel, RB Merek Pierce, TE Corey Rau, TE Ben Redding, DT Harrison Loveless, S Collin Rock
