Fortt/Citadel hmnnn

or Omar Fortt?

Could be. I think the citadel part of the tweet is more appropriate for Keating, though.

ForTT -- CitadeLL

... and we could also be off completely. Darien is Blue Wave and St Luke's is the Storm. But I can't think of a CT HS w/ Citadel in name. LOL...

Commit #8 for @UConnFootball football is St Luke's (New Canaan, CT) S Omar Fortt, who took in practice in Storrs yesterday #BleedBlue

 

[ktuck911]

Glad Omar is on board. My kid goes to school with him. She said he's a good guy. Which to me must mean Diaco's RKG

 

[ktuck911]

I have a feeling we must have #9 commit in Brian Keating from Darien too. Why else would he put on his Twitter profile that he's committed to the University of Connecticut and he got his offer 2 days ago????

Keating got his offer on June 28th...

 

[TheDoggPound]

It's got to be Fortt.

Kinda turns into a circus when there isn't a quick public follow-up to UConn paws. Response to initial UConn Paws tweet just now that now no longer exists

@BKeats304 congrats boss

 

[ktuck911]

Keating got his offer on June 28th...

He showed the official written offer on his Twitter page 2 days ago

 

[huskymedic]

He showed the official written offer on his Twitter page 2 days agi5

Yeah... August 1st is the first day that formal written scholarship offers to rising seniors can be sent - backs up verbal offers even if kids have verbally committed already.

Good article on Liam Fornadel. He holds UConn in high regard.
