Roster question

[zappinpoke]

Looking at the roster I noticed that AJ Hotchkins LB from OR wasn't listed. He was supposed to be a late signee. Also thought some big Canadian DE who had just started to play football had also committed, but don't see him listed either. Anyone know whats up?

Probably not here until until fall?

Here are some fairly recent tweets from Kongbo:

The only recent tweets from Hotchkins related to UW concerned Smith and Herron.

Nothing to show that they won't be in Laramie in the fall.

No they aren't. There are only five freshmen who didn't redshirt in 2013 listed on the depth chart:

FB 48 Waddie Love (6-1, 185, Fr., Encampment, Wyo.)
SLB 30 Brecken Biggs (6-0, 178, Fr., Casper, Wyo.)
MLB 40 Sam Boyd (6-1, 190, Fr., Eagle, Colo.)
DE 62 Seth Edeen (6-3, 203, Fr., Cheyenne, Wyo.)
RG 69 Richard Bettencourt (6-3, 290, Fr., Meridian, Idaho)

Now being new to the program, I can't say this with 100% certainty, but I'm confident that these are walk-on players.

The first 4 are all spring ball walk-ons. Bettencourt,a 2014 recruit, is on scholarship and graduated HS early. All the other 2014 recruits are listed on the roster except the two I mentioned.

And...I'm an idiot. I just realized you were asking why they weren't on the roster, not why they weren't on the depth chart.
