Getting harder to tell the difference these days.
Some people just need to take a break from the board, being here for prolonged periods of time with a bad team will change you.

For those who are more adept at breaking down game tape than I...

Malik Burns is teammates with James Tunstall at Lackey HS. Offers from ECU, Toledo, and Kent State (visiting there next month). Not trying to start more beef about who we are/should be recruiting against, but just going off of measurables he seems far more trim than our current pass rushers. Any thoughts?

Malik Burns on Hudl

Not sure what I am seeing in his film. The offensive line is absolutely dominating in most every play generating massive holes and getting downfield to further plays. It looks like varsity vs the freshman team in every clip.

"This is the official offer list for the 2017 UConn football recruiting class" determined by who?

There are kids missing off your list that hold UConn offers.


feels more like a list of kids they are still targeting (and acknowledging all of the offers that were turned down)

AJ Dillion flips from MI to BC.

Pretty sure Uconn was never a serious consideration for him.

Guess he didn't want to get stockpiled... be interesting to see if Sabastian now flips to Michigan. Should know today.

Brendan Devera® ‏@BrendanDevera 5m 5 minutes ago
Just received a scholarship offer from the university of Connecticut huskies

Brendan is a 6-2 235lb LB/QB from Wayne Hills High School in Wayne NJ. UNH commit since summer. Other offers from the usual cast of Northeast FCS schools (Albany, Stony Brook, Maine, Fordham etc...)

Rutgers LB target Brendan Devera earns 1st FBS offer

Senior year Highlights - Brendan DeVera

This kid is a tackling machine...has Syracuse and Rutty kicking the tires. Claims 4.6 speed.

Looks like a good prospect for MLB as he tackles downhill using his shoulders...and should enough speed to cover RBs and TEs in the middle for passes.

Team QB and Punter to boot.

Scott Lutrus 2.0? Maybe.

Claims a 4.47 40 time which seems possible looking at the tape. Nice player. It would be great to generate a flip on Temple.

Also looks to have some wiggle. We need playmakers.

Blessed to receive an offer from Uconn

Jordan Scott is a 5-6.5 163lb/(5-7 150lb)"Athlete" from St Joseph Regional High School in Montvale, NJ. University of Rhode Island, Stetson, Gannon University

Interesting article from back in June from Todd Hunt who covers New Jersey High School recruiting and was @ the N.J. Select Football Showcase.

>>Fastest 40-yard dash - The fastest 40-yard dash time went to St. Joseph (Mont.) athlete Jordan Scott, a 5-7, 150-pound junior, originally out of Linden, N.J. "That kid Jordan Scott, man -- holy cow -- 4.367 on the laser," said Todd Smith. "That's probably one of the fastest high school times I've ever seen in my life. If you ran sub 4.5 on the hand time, we sent you over to the laser to get a real laser time on you. So I guess he ran some obnoxious hand time and they were like you've got to go over to the laser. And then he went over to the laser and he ran 4.367."<<

DARRIAN BEAVERS ‏@duubbb 1m 1 minute ago
Blessed to receive an offer from Uconn !!!!

Darrian Beavers is a 6-4 210lb Safety/WR from Colerain High School in Ohio. Other offers from Army, Ball State, Buffalo, BGSU, Miami-Ohio, Eastern Kentucky and Georgia State.

The Creature - Darrian Beavers highlights

His HUDL bio says 6'5'' and 222lb with a 4.48 40 time. He doesn't look 6'5'' on the field to me, but anyway. The highlight film is mostly SS, but I would think his future given his height is at WR. A tall WR with long arms can be a real asset to a QB.

what is the lavender color represent
Guys we offered when they were already committed elsewhere. In other words, we are trying to get them to break their verbal.
