Boeing, to my knowledge, was being recruited almost exclusively by Morehead. They had a pretty good relationship by all accounts. Since Joe advanced to a HC gig, the priorities of our coaching staff were basically put on hiring a new QB coach, and we've now had a QB coach on board for about 6 weeks now, that's had to get up to speed on who we've already got, and getting his feet wet in the waters of college football after having come from the NFL as recently as a few weeks prior.......
I'm completely guessing at all of this..... but...
I think it's probably safe to say that the intensity by which UConn was recruiting Boeing may have dropped off a bit in the past few weeks from what he was used to as a junior, and it's probably safe to say, that now that spring practice will be starting up, and Day is going to be up to speed with the current roster and have a real good feel of what we've got at the depth chart there, and where we want to go with it, that if UConn is trully interested in the young man, then recruiting will definitely heat up for him.
I agree with Cerrano, the quote as posted seems out of character, no reference I can see either as to where it came from. Message board gossip is all it is.
