Kid's got nice size ( 6'4 230lbs )... and he's from the West coast (OR) ... Would be nice to tap into that region

Actually he's from Orlando, FL and goes to The First Academy. I believe he went to a Nike camp in Oregon however.
 
Make it 8!

@desmondconner: #UConnFootball commit No.8 for 2015 is Ian Campbell, 6-5, 225 TE from Pequamnock (N.J,) Township
 
Anybody feel like some of these kids that have committed that have no or 2 stars so far will more than likely end up as 3 star kids? I think so... Seems like we're getting kids that are 'under the radar' earlier now instead of going after the kids that are already ranked. I like this process better.
 
I would not expect many upticks in stars - no incentive for rivals or 24/7 to do so. Not that I care. I remain firmly committed to trusting this staff to rebuild the team with the pieces they think fit best, rather than a couple of guys who never played and could not run 40 yards

Not a chance. Rivals has no incentive to do so. UConn football doesn't pay the bills. The SEC and select other programs do. UConn is the 93rd ranked team in the country and 2* recruits maintains the status quo. There is no upward pressure to change.

Blessed to be able to say I got offered by two more schools last week, The United States Naval Academy, and FAMU.
Nice highlights. Seems to have an eye for the ball and is very aggressive,even when being blocked by bigger guys. I hope he gets an offer. Seems to fit the profile nicely: big guy with smarts. Having his sister at UConn is nice, too.

I disagree. I think with us getting commitments from these types of kids earlier (we've never done this before) I think we have a few soon to be unhidden gems in the class so far. This program has no place to go but up.. Ride or die Husky fan here. I see this program working to take the next step and stay there not just make a cameo appearence and fall back.
 
What will happen is if these "under the radar kids" have breakout seasons and start getting offered by other P5 schools at the end of recruiting season, if they flip they will immediately be jacked to a 3* if they stay firm to the UCONN commit, they won't change in ranking......

I like him as DL. Big and can move a bit. Good moves and get up field to the ball carrier/QB.

Me too... He's one of those kids you can definitely see taking a redshirt year and bulking up to play inside on the DLine

Appears to have the raw size and frame for it. Can be a bull rusher in the interior I think. He looks like Lindsey Witten did as a senior just about.
