There's lots of depth, just not experienced depth. Holmes and Carmichael have higher ceilings than France but are just babies. McDonald also got his first PT against Elon. So, fingers crossed for Saturday.

The Troy game will present something of a live lab for some of the younger, less experienced players.:D
