Breaking down Nevada football's two-deep depth chart for season opener against Ohio State
Jeff Longo -- Nevada Sports Net College Football Writer

On Tuesday, the Nevada football team released its first depth chart of the season in advance of Saturday's season opener against Ohio State. It won't take long for Jerome Singleton's team to be tested this year in his first season with a tough task ahead against an Ohio State that won just five games last year and are looking to make a major statement in what should be a bounce back year for the Buckeyes.

Top-75 recruit Larry Palepoi excited to be first member of Nevada's recruiting class
Logan Finau -- Nevada247 Football Writer

Ever since camping in Madison last summer as a rising junior, four-star defensive tackle Larry Palepoi knew he was going to be an anchor for Jerome Singleton's defense, he just didn't know it'd be in Reno, Nevada.

The IMG prospect committed to the Wolf Pack on Monday, following through with his commitment to Singleton who left Wisconsin to become Nevada's head coach, becoming the anchor for Singleton's first full class as head coach of the Wolfpack.

"I just love his defense," said Palepoi of Singleton, who is originally from Hawai'i, "I learned more in those two days with [Singleton] than I ever did so I always knew I wanted to play for him so when he went to Nevada, I was just on the phone, waiting for the go ahead."

Singleton has enacted a policy of no commitments from players prior to their senior year so Palepoi had to wait but he's been on board since day one, decked out in Nevada gear in IMG's preseason game this past weekend in Venice. The six-foot-four prospect is the seventh ranked defensive tackle in this class with the ability to play all over Singleton's base 3-3-5 defense with experience at nose tackle but with the athleticism to play five-technique as well.
