Inside the Huddle
Junior college transfer Cory Butler has moved ahead of Bubba Poole at slot receiver, but he's also going to get reps at cornerback this week … Freshman receiver Tyrone Smith has cracked the two deep at Z receiver behind Kenneth Scott … Junior all-conference candidate J.J. Dielman is back at right tackle, where he started all 13 games last season. The initial plan was to move Dielman to left tackle, where he played in the spring, but co-offensive coordinator/offensive line coach Jim Harding would like either Sam Tevi or Jackson Barton to develop at left tackle ... Sophomore Marcus Williams has taken the lead over junior Jason Thompson at free safety … True freshman Britain Covey is the No. 1 punt returner after the first week of camp … Walk-on Aaron Amaama joined the camp "105" roster last week, replacing injured redshirt freshman Vaha Vainuku. The roster is capped at 105 players during fall camp and Vainuku will rejoin the roster (and others will be added) when school starts, at which time the team will expand to around 115-120 players.
