    ...on twitter? With that big puppy dog photo on the left. Big red tongue hanging out. U have got to be Sugar Honey Iced Tea'ing me bro. We send that official offer with that type of letterhead to football recruits? IMO helps recruits view us as a back up plan. Or more of a back up to a back up plan. Image, from documents we send to potential recruits to coaches to faciities to campus life, is everything. If you're a high 3 star or a 4 star verbal to UCONN football and any other BCS program puts out an offer last minute (and u actually were seriously interested in that school b4 but they didn't have a spot for u but all of a sudden do) , u get official offer letter. Now uplace UCONN's official offer withe big elementary school looking puppy dog aking up half the page and you put that other offer letter next to it, what do you do?

    Me thinks we shoulld update our official letters is all I'm saying. Awful job by our athletic dept to send that out to potential football recruits. BCS football is now akin to corporate America. Image is everything even down to the letterhead. For Christ sakes I'd rather see them send a letter with the official UCONN. You know, like the alumni letters we get in the mail?

    Your grammar is worse than that image. By far.

    The Husky dog was not included in the letter. It was an image added by the recruit.

    Now what are we going to complain about?

    When you are typing to get a point across on a crappy motorola Blur to get your point across because it's in your head at that time grammar comes out crappy... I tried to update it but the screen stuck when I went into edit mode so I gave up...

    Still, the crappy letterhead we send to kids offering them a scholly to play football at UCONN is a travesty.....

    OK....I take that you are aware that the big puppy on the left was inserted by Lagow. That being said, what the heck is wrong with the letter head?

    im not a fan of our letters either ktuck. i have seen them before when kids take pics. i don't like the "Cinside". they are the most grown up of all hs kids, not 3rd graders. i have also argued that "connecticut should be all caps and the o should be the sate instead of a O like Bama has. but thats nit picky .

    It is my understanding that FHCRE designed the letter head. And if I had any ability to photoshop, I would post a fake Maryland letter which you would all find very funny. Instead, you'll have to use your imagination.

    my god i feel dense right now. he even capitalized the letters. i feel dumber, but less old as a result of this. i thought it was some kind of slang i didn't even bother trying to translate. i still miss when slang made things shorter and i stand by that
