West Virginia University head coach Rich Rodriguez released the depth chart ahead of Saturday’s matchup against the TCU Horned Frogs (3-3, 1-2). Kickoff is set for noon EST and the action will broadcast on ESPN2.
Prince Strachan makes his debut on the depth chart for the first time this season. The redshirt junior receiver has started the last two games and has recorded eight catches for 205 yards, stretching the field for longs of 40 and 41 yards.
Fifth year tackle Malik Agbo made his first of the season at right tackle last week against Cincinnati but remains listed behind freshman left tackle Kevin Brown.
Junior tight end also made his first start of the season against the Bearcats. He hauled in three passes for 59 yards, including a huge pick up of 36 yards.

There have been no changes to the defensive side of the depth chart from a week ago. Nick Taylor is listed at starting right cornerback. He’s remained on the two-deep but has not seen action in the last two games as he’s been sidelined with an injury.
Junior Keyshawn Robinson, then fifth year corner Jason Chambers has stepped in place for an injured Taylor in the last two games.
David Afogho made his first start of the season after starting all 12 games last season. The redshirt junior edge rusher tallied five tackles against the Bearcats.
Several Mountaineers made their first start in the old Gold and Blue on the defensive side of the ball on Saturday. Fifth year safety Jacorey Thomas started at strong safety, senior safety Andrew Powdrell lined up at left corner, and redshirt freshman defensive line Taylor Brown put his hand in the dirt at defensive tackle.
