Cody Lindenberg will run the defense at middle linebacker, and safety Tyler Nubin will patrol the secondary.But the depth chart won’t be written in pen after the spring game on April 22 at Huntington Bank Stadium.“The great thing about spring is, and we’ve always said it, (in) spring, you will never win the job,” Fleck said before the U’s first practice on Tuesday. “You are going to set up winning the job.”That outlook is especially true in 2023 with the NCAA transfer portal routinely altering college rosters.
