Take One UConn Basketball Player And Put Him On The Football Team

[Drew]

Who are you choosing and what position are you putting him at?

I'm kind of torn to be honest. I think Enoch could make a solid defensive end/pass rusher if taught proper technique, problem with him is he's so tall that leverage might be an issue for him.

Purvis at Free Safety is the other one I'm thinking of. Dude would lay some people out over the middle


What say you?

I say you need a job to take up some of your time...

10x more posts than me and actively tracking where hundreds of high schoolers are going to attend college- and I'm the one who needs a job?!

[Palatine]

Donny Marshall. Vintage Donny Marshall.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Jalen Adams would be a monster duel threat QB

 

[BlueMAB]

Vance Jackson at TE
Alterique Gilbert at RB
or
Mamadou Diarra at DE

Rodney Purvis at WR. 6'4 205 according to roster, and lightning quick, can high point the ball at least to 9'. No idea if he can catch, but if he could he'd be a terror running routes in this completely hypothetical boredom related topic.

Rodney has famously small hands for his size. Often loses the handle going up for dunks/lay ups. At DB though..,

Arms too short.



[I kid... kind of]

 

[uconnphil2016]

Amida Brimah at WR. Just have him stand in the endzone and toss it up high. Even if he can't catch he'll get lucky sometimes.

 

[Dooley]

Ed Nelson. Good body for a FB/TE hybrid, awesome motor, and team first guy. Not afraid of contact either - obviously important if we need him to block.

 

[gwhuskyfan]

Can we get Rakim Lubin back? Put him anywhere

 

[DoctorWho85]

Okafor - TE

 

[Stinger92860]

Lyman Depriest - Linebacker

 

[huskypantz]

Toraino Walker - DE.

 

[JMick]

Larrier at X receiver. Dude is athletic as heck and can jump through the roof.

 

[jmp33]

Scott Burrell QB

Have Brimah guard the goalposts on longer field goals

You guys have short memories.

Brian Fair walked onto the football team and went to camp with the Arizona Cardinals.

If you are talking about current players none of them.

If you want an actual answer outside of Burrell - Jeff Adrien is sort of the kind of guy they have turned tight ends in the past.

 

[jdb50]

I would put John Gwynn or Kemba as slot receivers but as far as the way back machine how about John Thomas as strong side DE.

 

[Huskyforlife]

Diarra would be an exciting prospect at 3-4 OLB. 6'6 230 pounds without football weight training. Pretty athletic, and has very long arms.

 

[Huskyforlife]

I like Adams at QB, just needs to work on his form

 

[Scoe]

Johnny Selvie, Kirk King, and Eric Hayward all on the Dline. AD at TE, Boatright in a Larry Taylor role, Ray Allen at RB.

 

[UCFBfan]

Tony Robertson has crazy ups. Put him at a Safety spot or DB and he could swat it away. Maybe make him just a straight up Athlete and use him all around the field. That man could dunk like no other at times.
