Medic I'm interested to see how long it takes for Marinelli's influence with Niang to bump UCONN right off his list.

Seriously. When I see his name associated with a recruit, I put the chances at zero the player commits here.

Alot are old retweets by "uconnrecruiting" - if you see a new one let me know.

Yes. I see that now. My Twitter skills suck. Sorry.

 

[JimHSR]

Why does everyone make such a big stink about the Marinelli thing. He's one coach at one HS in Connecticut of all places. Who cares. They've had what, 2 guys go to big time programs in the recent past (3 if you count the OL next season). If the fear is that he wont send his 2nd and 3rd tier recruits to uconn (since guys with P5 offers wont consider uconn anyway), then just find that caliber player elsewhere, they're a dime a dozen (and in a previous post, someone mentioned Petroccio at Staples, maybe it was in the 2015 thread, Staples has no players and is largely successful due to his system, so again, no loss).

Just people consumed with keeping the best players in the state at Uconn. It has never been the case and probably never will be.

JB confirms that Charles Baldwin from Windsor CT (Windsor HS) now a freshman @ ASA College in Brooklyn has another UConn offer. He had an offer in 2014 but ended up going the JUCO route.

He's a 6-5 300lb/6-6 305lb OL w/ other others from Miami and VaTech.

A CT kid with a Miami and VT offer. Don't let him out of the state. Even though he is in Mass now. Bring him back!

 

[FDNY99]

Medic nice to see the Red bank Catholic/UCONN pipeline has a chance at reopening. For what it's worth my buddy who is a former RBC and UCONN Co-Capt said that Smith is VERY good...getting him will be a serious coup. He said that Hahn is a VERY good ath and we have as good a shot as anyone to land him. He is a serious playmater and would be a "GREAT get" as he put it.

Too early for speculation and expectations. But I like your friends comments and hopeful enthusiasm. 2015 recruiting is just about done. Onto the next class. Let the wild ride begin!

He lives back in that part of NJ...Matt DeGennaro does too. My buddy goes to RBC games as much as he can, and his former coach there is the AD. Needless to say the AD sent a fair amount of kids to UCONN to play football when he was the HC at RBC...and the both of them never had anything good to say about our former recruiting coordinator Matt Cersosimo. Diaco recruited that school regularly for ND...and UCONN is back there recruiting regularly again. There have been LOT of kids that were co-capt's at both RBC and UCONN.

Went sniffing around and I can't find that any of these guys got an offer post HCDB hire - (doesn't mean it doesn't exist). If anyone has other intel - we'll add them.

 

[Bonehead]

Just people consumed with keeping the best players in the state at Uconn. It has never been the case and probably never will be.

Most of the best players have been going to BC and they rank last among all P5 schools in recruiting - why are we trying to get them to come to UConn again - because their friends and family will fill the rent or another reason??

Isn't Saban confirming someone has an offer discussing a recruit who has not signed yet?

That is a violation in most conferences right?.

Oh wait...P5...check Alabama....check.

Nevermind....

He confirmed it to the kid, whom he's allowed to call. The kid then told Friedman. I hate the upper crust as much as we all do, but nothing scuzzy happened here.

We're looking good with Scooter Harrington. Daniel Dalton a TE from MA has just committed to Boston College. I always get nervous when top CT players gets offered by BC.
