[UConnCat]

to UConn football player Jimmy Bennett, who's 6-9 btw. Congrats Heather!

From Jim Fuller's blog:

BIG PLANS FOR JIMMY BENNETT

It's a special time for UConn offensive tackle Jimmy Bennett who finished up his classwork at UConn, is set to play in the Medal of Honor Bowl on Jan. 11 in Charleston, S.C. which could be a major step as he looks to embark on a career in professional football.

Did I miss anytihng? Oh yeah, he proposed to his girlfriend - former UConn forward Heather Buck who said yes.

Current UConn center Stefanie Dolson said she is thrilled for Buck and Bennett.
"Super excited, I was really happy for her," Dolson said. "They are awesome, they are the perfect couple. First of all, they are both huge and secondly, they are cute together. They are great people and I am very happy for them."

Ok, if they have kids, they will be legacies. I think they could be very, very tall!

Congrats to Heather and her fiance!

Further proof, if any were needed, that sticking it out through one's full tenure at UConn allows life to work itself out...

6' 9" 307 and 6' 5" Heather... will they accept a baby footprint on a national letter of intent??

So does this mean Geno will have to coach for another 18 or 20 years?

He's waiting to hear your complaint in person, Meyers.

Be sure to be really pushy and obnoxious about it.

Wasn't a complaint. Just a missed opportunity by a youngin'. (who's advising these kids? )

Be sure to be really pushy and obnoxious about it.

Never am.

He looks like a lovable teddy bear.

The bigger they are, the harder you fall.

 

[Aluminny69]

The bigger they are, the harder you fall.

Actually, the bigger they are, the harder they hit... (one of life's little lessons.)

 

[Icebear]

The bigger they are, the harder you fall.

That's OK as long as they don't fall on you.
