absolutely love this kids motor, deff has a mean streak/ nasty way about him. he could come play for me any day.

 

[ktuck911]

Picking up Byczko now is a smart move for us... Additional FBS schools will be calling/offering during and after this season.... With our commitment to him now, while others flip flop is good for us...

This is all good, but now its time to get some help in the trenches and some speed in the athletic positions.

Oklahoma State football: Cowboys get commitment from 2017 athlete Thabo Mwaniki
"Mwaniki is a three-star rated prospect with double digit scholarship offers, including Colorado, Connecticut and Kansas. He comes from the same high school as former Cowboy standouts J.W. Walsh, Jimmy Bean and Josh Stewart."

OK State mentioning UConn with two other P5s as one of his offers. That is a good thing.

Not all of them end up there. Just look at the past few classes. Byzcko will be moving to LB too. If you look at 24/7 sports, they don't have a single commit listed at TE.

FWIW Coaches can now RT and Favorite tweets from prospective recruits. They cannot tweet @ recruits but can "interact" with their messages.

Anyone see Brian Keating's twitter profile? It says "University of Connecticut Commit". But haven't see anything on him?

I did but have held off since I have seen nothing else confirming it from another source (especially since he announced his offer on Twitter but not his commitment).

I pulled this from a Nebraska article speaking about what their "offer" actually entails- does anyone know what a UConn "offer" is actually worth when factoring in the other items? I assume we are planning on doing the COA also?

"Nebraska's offer outlines the full extent of the amenities that NU football prospects will receive — full cost of attendance, Adidas gear, a MacBook Air and IPad 2 Air, the weekend meal plan at downtown restaurants and the post-eligibility stipend to pursue an internship or perhaps study abroad. "

Nothing special aside from a long snapper. Usually a preferred walk on.

PWO for LS is probably right. I like the idea of another FCIAC kid. Not because its great football, but it helps engage a broader area of the state.

We sure he wouldn't come on board as a center? Vechery graduates after the '17 season, and Crozier would be the only other C on roster.

Keating weighs 230 lbs. I don't think being a center on the FBS level is in his future unless he adds some serious girth.

Have you seen the size of him? No way he can add the mass needed to be a suitable center especially in Diaco's "size" recruiting.
