Today, I felt like taking a deep dive into the University of Houston’s football depth chart. You know, just to see who’s who and what’s what for the upcoming season. I’ve been following them for a while, and it’s always interesting to see how the team shapes up year after year.

So, first things first, I hit up the usual spots online to gather some data. I was mostly looking for any official statements from the University of Houston, maybe some news articles, anything that would give me a solid starting point. It was a bit of a digital scavenger hunt, going through various sports news sites and even some fan forums.
After gathering a bunch of information, I started organizing it all. I made a simple table with positions, player names, their year, and any other interesting tidbits I could find, like previous experience or any buzz around them. This part was a bit tedious, to be honest, but it’s cool to see it all laid out.
Quarterbacks
- Donovan Smith (Senior)
- Ui Ale (Sophomore)
- Zeon Chriss (Freshman)
Running Backs
- Tony Mathis Jr. (Junior)
- Stacy Sneed (Sophomore)
- Brandon Campbell (Junior)
- Kelan Walker (Junior)
Then came the fun part – analysis. I spent some time looking at the roster, figuring out who the likely starters are, who the key backups might be, and any potential surprises. It’s like putting together a puzzle, trying to predict how the coach might use each player.

I also tried to cross-reference my findings with some of the chatter I found on fan forums and social media. It’s always interesting to see how my take compares to other fans’ opinions. Sometimes they bring up points I hadn’t considered, which is great.
My Thoughts
From what I gathered, the team seems pretty solid this year. They’ve got some experienced players in key positions, and a few fresh faces that could make a big impact. I’m particularly excited to see how the quarterback situation plays out. It seems like there will be tough competition for the starting spot.
Overall, it was a fun little project. I feel like I have a pretty good grasp of the team’s depth chart now, and I’m even more pumped for the season to start. Go Coogs!
