Griffin has had an offer from us for a while... wonder what the hold up is on his end?

we need that and a 56th page on 2013 recruiting - I'm so lost trying to keep up w/this thread! Maybe the mods could post a new rule, any discussion above 10 pages is not a discussion, and needs to be split/killed/whatever.
 
gioff this is a rolling updates thread. thats all. its better than 20 threads a day on 20 guys with 1 post each.

news: McGill has a top 5 of jmu, ecu, cincy, md, odu. were out of it.

on another note, its been extremely interesting watching umass, char and odu recruiting wise. the northeast for years lacked fbs non bcs teams. now with several new ones, kids aren't leaving the area and are instead staying home. add in temple being back, the ucf upgrade and the rumors around a ecu upgrade and now east coast is a huge mess.

Coach P didn't let players play 2 sports at Syracuse, not sure how he feels about it now. Tough to miss spring practice. But I agree, if he allows it our chances to land DeLuzio go up dramatically. We'd be the only school at which he could do both ... SMU has offered football but has no baseball, the baseball schools haven't offered him for football.

That's why I said in another thread that the NBE national footprint might be a real advantage for UConn. Northeast/east coast is getting picked over. We need to recruit nationally. Games televised nationally on NBC and played in Florida/TX will help.

Recruiting is largely a regional phenomena regardless of conference affiliation. everyone in our recruiting area will get a couple of kids outside the ne recruiting base (TX ,FL,GA) but the bulk will come from New England and the Mid-Atlantic states.

I think for us 4* recruits will be local but there are plenty of underrecruited 3*s we can pull in nationally, especially at 1-player positions like QB (Lagow).

PP is ok with it now. Kash ran track last year. depending on what UCF has open fball wise i could see them possibly offering both which would be tough to beat. i think we may have a shot here...
Expand ...

Baseball and track are two different animals. You can run track and still participate in Spring Football. Pretty tough to play baseball and still participate in Spring Football.
 
HuskyfanDan said:
that is a good point, but i would have to see it to believe it if a stud qb wanted to pitch also and we said no for example.
Expand ...

Even tougher for a stud qb to play both. So much gets put in in the Spring. Real tough for a qb to miss all the reps that come with spring football and be able to compete for the job in the fall.

frustrating...but on a positive note... Congrats to Wholley to the beginning of the rest of his life with his rib (aka bride to be).

kyle schafenacker, there is a article out on him. anyone get the scoop? he has a top 3 of uconn, cincy and south cary. smu is out of it(they had 2 ogs commit i think already). sounds like his dream is fsu but he didn't get a offer at camp and they have 4 ol commits with 1 of them being a og.

we have 1 ol commit, he seems to be a ot.
cincy has 2 ol commits and 1 is a og
sc has 4 ol commits among 19 overall. almost a full class for them already. 3 of them were ot's is hs but it seems 1 of them will move.

seems like were in it but i havn't really seen anything positive about uconn with him...

Not too optomistic with this kid bro. I think if FSU doesn't offer SC (east coast) could be his choice...

yea were def involved with joyner. i hate to say this but i think he prepped in ct somewhat under our staffs influence. just my opinion as i see it. he is a big kid with good ability. i see him on the ol/dl in the future and not te but i think he will get his shot at te somewhere before moving. i think he may be our 3rd te in this class. but as we know, him and thompson are de recruits also. others to watch out for include stapleton and callinan. bc will need to grab 1 of them soon and i think cuse is still in the hunt for a te, maybe temple also.

holiness just verbaled to umass. we offered post camp but i suspect a grades/clear issue(partial q). maine also offered. good looking prospect btw, nice get for umass.
Expand ...

going back to this there seem to be new reports about holiness. i thought we offered after camp. i guess we didn't but now have?!?! im not really sure whats going on. he committed to umass but the press never bit on it which was interesting accept for local papers. now we have officially offered i guess. im lost basically. the only way kids pick a mac school over a bcs school is grades/test issues that mess with qualifying. so i guess we should watch out now for some news...
 
new name to watch - anthony antwine. 2013 wr from plano, he had a big day with lagow at the 7v7 this past weekend and now is on the radar.
