Not that I'm aware of...

Damn. Sounds like he may follow Green.

I bet some big boys are trying to come in late on this kid... But I truly hope we have a legit shot with him come tomorrow... Would be nice to finally see UConn as the hat the kid chooses on NLI day instead of the other guy (norm)

[Exit 4]

Oh well on Vollmer. I think we can find what we need via the 5th year senior market this spring. Lashlee and Grimes seem to have plenty of old friends to call on.

 

[Timking124]

I cant wait until signing day is over with as im growing more and more uncomfortable stalking these kids on Twitter to see if they sign.

[noeynox]

Damn it. I wanted Vollmer and Brown instead they both go to UVA.

 

[Timking124]

@huskymedic

Is there a player that has gone on a OV with the current staff that hasn't signed?

I think Edsall is perfect in regards to players who have already committed

 

[Pudge]

Damn it. I wanted Vollmer and Brown instead they both go to UVA.

One stop shopping at TAFT ... and also CHESHIRE. We need to get our UConn share of that.

 

[Drew]

 

[uconnphil2016]

If we can just get one of three (Green, Sheffield, Washington), I'll be ecstatic.

 

[noeynox]

I would love all three but Sheffield and Green would be great ways to cap it off. Has Blackshear committed to RU yet?

 

[ktuck911]

Damn it. I wanted Vollmer and Brown instead they both go to UVA.

Honestly, not surprised about Vollmer... we have 4 OL in this class already... Wish him well at UVA... can't blame him for that choice... Charlotesville, VA is a beautiful place... best of luck to he and Brown down there... I still like our chances with what we've hauled in so far....

Sheffield has an offer, visited and has not committed yet.

Hall has an offer - not sure if he visited and hasn't committed.

Green, Washington and Kouyate have visited - not sure of confirmed offer status and all haven't committed anywhere yet.

 

[huskymedic]

Pending...

I did last night after seeing this:

Marvin Washington ‏@_Marvv10 23h 23 hours ago
I really wanna go to school with my brother man @MIAMIJCG26

He's no longer on private with his twitter account. Also, looks like he's following a few UConn folks (Edsall Sr and Jr included).. at the same time he's following RichRod (Arizona)... Should be interesting...

 

[Exit 4]

So Vollmer, Brown, DeGroot, Hobbs, DeVera and Cummins all land at P5 schools.....with 3 getting their chance in the final days of the cycle. All look like decent players, however I feel like we have a complimentary recruits already for each one of these guys. If we don't get Sheffield and/or Washington, I wont be able to say the same, those two look special.

 

[Exit 4]

ThisIsUConnCountry ‏@MattSchonvisky 13m13 minutes ago
that could be coming to Storrs. I expect to see at least three more commits before signing day is done this time tomorrow.

I'm gonna guess the three are Green, Kayoute and .... Sheffield.....or Washington....

 

[UC1995]

Latest following is Edsall (s) Wholley, Crocker, etc.... got the whole coaching staff coming on ... but glad following a recruit on offense in Fitton...

Add in Lashlee, Crocker & Wholley too. The current player is Coyle and two recruits, Sheffield and Fitton.

Three most represented schools, coaching wise are UConn, AZ and Florida. He's also following three AZ reporters. Other coaches, players or message boards are from Indiana, Purdue, Florida, Ga Tech, Tenn, Middle Tenn, Hawaii, Nevada, Ball St, & FAU.
