And deservedly so! It's kind of ridiculous to me that a kid who is considered to be in the top 35 of the hotbed state of Pennsylvania was originally listed only as a 2-star, but that's just me...

 

[Dooley]

Further proof that we have a coaching staff that can identify talent earlier than most "experts".

 

[BlueDogs]

Geez, he's got some size huh? I wonder what the coaching staff thinks where he fits best, DE or T?

Definite nose tackle at 6'2. As said above, he is a bit short for the P5 cookie cutter. Doesn't matter, just makes him more determined and he has better leverage.

*Really wish someone w/ the "juice" would edit in Kevin Murphy's name into title*

Anyways... Ranked #18 in Philadelphia Inquirer/Philly.com Rally 100 (top high school football prospects in Southeastern Pennsylvania.>

18. Kevin Murphy W.C. East DL 6-2 270 Sr.

As a tackle, the hard-working and rugged Murphy is the anchor of the Vikings' 4-4 defense. The Connecticut commit also serves as an offensive tackle, the spot where last season he earned first-team all-Ches-Mont League National Conference honors.

Number of others have/had UConn offers.

Yea he really went far and panned out. Kevin belongs on the defensive side of the ball.

Nose for the ball!

 

[BNich]

Nose for the ball!

Seems disciplined to me. Contains blockers on some plays and makes the stop. Gets up field and tackles the ball carrier behind the line on others. Moves laterally pretty well for a big kid.

Sure.

Just shoot me a PM next time.

 

[huskymedic]

Sure.

Just shoot me a PM next time.

Thank you Fishy (and before it gets pointed out he's been listed as both DE and DT so if it's changed to DL it works just as well and may prevent an argument).

Saw this today. Good to see. Des also tweeted that a few of our verbals have had P5 offers extended lately yet none seem to be waivering from their verbal to us. NLI day is still a month or so off but shows that Diaco and Co found kids who wanna play here and believe in what Diaco is hopefully building. Hope it all sticks.

Can't get hear soon enough. I think these kind of quotes and offers are showing everyone Diaco knows what he and staff are doing in the recruiting world.
