I had an out-of-body experience reading the original post.

Some schlep named Donyell Marshall was from the Philly area.

Oh yeah. I forgot he was from PA as well. Good catch, but it's been quite some time since we mined an nugget out of that area. Baltimore area, which is close by, has been good for us of late. Rudy, Rome, Boone, etc.

Agreed, not every kid crests the hill at our favorite dairy cow U and falls in love with the place. I did, and it's much nicer now. But it is the boonies.

Luckily storrs center is currently under construction next to the campus. It is projected to have about 200,000 square feet of retail, about 700 apartment/ condo units, and some office space when fully completed in a few years. It should help eliminate some of the rural feel. It won't necessarily make recruits drool over all there is to do on campus, but at least UConn will have a college town....finally.

For those of you who haven't heard about it here is a link. There's more info on the web if your curious
