Head coach Ken Niumatalolo cited fullback depth as a concern entering August camp. Navy had a proven returner in Chris High, but no other fullback on the roster had played a meaningful minute at the position during a game.
With Friday night’s season opener at Florida Atlantic looming, fullbacks coach Mike Judge feels comfortable he has two men to lean on, but is still trying to figure out the rest of the depth chart.
High and converted slotback Josh Walker have both been impressive during August drills, giving the coaching staff confidence the Midshipmen have a solid one-two punch at the position.
