UConn announced that sophomore Chandler Whitmer will start fall camp as No. 1 on the depth chart at quarterback and also that Scott McCummings will miss the beginning of camp due to excused personal reasons.

Whitmer moved to the front of the pack during spring practice and had an outstanding showing at the spring game. With McCummings not at camp early on and freshman Casey Cochran likely being hampered by a cast to protect a broken left thumb there should be time for Whitmer, last year's starter Johnny McEntee and Michael Nebrich to try to get a jump on the competition.

UConn listed a depth chart in the prospectus handed out at Big East media day and listed the five quarterbacks alphabetically,
