2017 Recruiting Thread

Marvin Washington (QB) was in the building....His Twitter account is locked, but he tweeted this at 10:02pm
"Hanging with the #Undefeated Uconn Girls basketball team ☺ @UconnWBB #94-0"

I guess he didn't know it's 95-0

Totally slid right by that... nice catch.

Hope RL/TR read him a bed time story about Kendall Briles and the likelihood he lasts @ FAU.

I thought someone said he was supposed to be visiting Arizona this weekend, yes? IF that's right, then could this be a good sign for us?

No - Arizona called him and he's following RichRod.

This is great news about Washington.

About this Chris Green kid, where did he play his senior year because he is nowhere to be found on the Santa Ana Mater Dei website, not can I find any senior year footage.

Los Angeles Senior High School.

Ok, thanks Medic. Still...the fact that took the last weekend to visit us instead of AZ, could be considered a good sign.

FWIW Pindell's rivals profile indicates he should be on an OV here this weekend

 

[Exit 4]

Shame on me for writing this; but some combination of Pindell, Washington, Sheffield, Green, Kayoute, Vollmer and Gardner will move us out of last place in AAC recruiting and maybe as high as #8 per the 247 rankings. It would also put is in the top 90 nationally. What does it mean, well - sometimes not a whole lot, but I'll take it.

For those who are twitter blocked @ work... Abdoul Kouyate is a 6-3 250lb DE/LB from Blair Academy in Blairstown, New Jersey. Appears to have reclassified after transferring from Cardinal Hayes HS in da Bronx. Current offers are BGSU, UMass? San Diego, Sacred Heart, Wagner and Morgan State.

call it hyperbole if you'd like, but I just watched his hudl tape for the first time and I think he could start here from day 1. He would be the most talented QB on the roster no question.

Always remember they're throwing against HS defenses. Not gonna see WRs that open on this level. Do agree the kid looks talented.

there are some big time throws in his tape. watch the throw at 1:05 - that's pure skill and something we do not have on the roster right now

Just rewatched his tape. Really the closing thing I have seen in a UConn Dline recruit to Trevardo Williams since well, Trevardo Williams. This our new edge rusher.

Agreed he makes pro like throws with pinpoint accuracy. I dont understand how he is only a 2/3 star recruit.

shhhh.

His senior tape is filthy. Super quick release, throwing ropes and bombs. Also throwing on the run and sometimes off his back foot - but with velocity. He really could start as a true freshman - at least from a tools perspective.

He (Washington) posted this last night (but that's all he's posted).

and btw, I think we're still in on Raheem Blackshear.. Gut feeling... We're in a different place than where Edsall left us the first time... MSU already has a ton of 3 and 4 star skill players on their squad.. Just a gut feeling we could possibly get a surprise in him on signing day...

My gut is still saying we still have a shot with this kid....

Arch Wood ATH Raheem Blackshear tells me he's still committed to #MichState, but is strongly considering #Rutgers after official visit.

Almost sounds like whoever he sees last...wins! lol Can we get him to visit Tuesday?

He and Pindell's are impressive. No hesitation from Pinellas and Washington slings it all over the field. Impressive either way.

Has he been to Storrs yet??? My biased opinion: I get the B1G love but he's just a better fit in Storrs. More opportunity for him to see the field early.

Blessed to say that I have committed to Howard University

 

[Jerry27]

Any idea who this is?
Edit: being that this person also said on the 23rd that he committed to North Dakota State and he looks like the build of a WR; Jaylen Hall maybe?

Я U Ξ B Ξ И‏@rueby_V
UPDATE: My brother picked up a full ride from UConn yesterday. He's gonna be a Husky!

It appears to be Jaylen Hall. He hasn't announced yet on his twitter though? Saw no reference of North Dakota State offer on any of his 247/Scout profiles. Not sure what to make of it yet...

 

[Timking124]

Hopefully it doesn't mean someone said they wouldn't commit.

Medic what happens if we go over the 80 scholarship offers in Feb? Cuts in the spring?

 

[WinnersCircle]

I think it is Cameron Hairston. 6'3 WR out of Missouri.
