    The only kid that surprised me on the New England thread was the kid from Doherty HS in Worcester. I had not heard of anything from him locally. Also surprised that a kid with his size was not playing basketball. I guess he does the high jump (did 6-0 in the district meet good for third place) for the track team.

    Hurst looks like a baller. Thanks for the work you put into recruiting, Huskyfandan. You should try and work for the UConn Rivals site. Does he have other offers or were we his first?

    I remember his dad. He was a fair to middling sized cornerback. Mom must have had some big men in her family because that's a big kid.

    Was Hurst Sr. the dude that got all crossed up by Barry Sanders in that classic clip that gets played all the time? Where Barry Sanders breaks off a long run and the DB turns the wrong way like three times as he is running downfield?

    Is this unusual in the amount of offers we have out, or is it that we never received this amount of info on recruits. I know RE kept things more secretive. Looks to me we are trying to get involved with and offer kids that have a higher profile.
