Windsor's right up the road from UCONN. I'll give Pinnock a pass.. problem wanted to get a little further away.. Don't blame him in a case like that... Best of luck at BC...
 
Windsor is right up 2 interstates and a major state route from UConn and it takes 45 minutes to get there. This is like saying Shrewsbury, MA is suburb of Boston.

Obi as a safety is gone, Summers could depart as a JR from CB. And I think John Greene is a SR. Can't have enough CB's coming. Already thin with Adams, Ellis Marder, and Hadley gone before this season.

I wish nothing but the worst luck for him.
He turned his back on his home state to join a team up the road which we despise.
F the niceties, I hope he flops in the most epic of ways

smh. nice way to treat a 17/18 year old kid who's trying to get an education and is lucky enough to get a full ride playing football while doing so...
 
Markus Vinson committed to Richmond on July 25th. Guess that one slipped through the cracks...
 
It appears that Josh Thompson (Garland, TX) is a hard commit for Texas (per 247 as of 7/27/16)

Funny josh maize story. About year and a half ago my basketball team needed a big guy. Had a Deerfield kid who brought Josh. He needed a pair of shorts I gave him my uconn shorts from my car. Was a great kid. Never got the shorts back. Hopefully it helps sway him to uconn.

No, I lived there. Most of the people in Shrewsbury work inside 495.

But it doesn't matter in this case. Windsor is close enough to Storrs that a kid who "wants to get away from mom and dad" isn't going to UConn. Same with a kid in Shrewsbury going to BC.

You're right that it really doesn't apply to your original point, but Shrewsbury shares a border with Worcester and is separated from Boston by at least 6 towns (Northboro...where I grew up and lived for 18-22 years depending on how you measure), Westboro, Southboro, Framingham, Natick, and Newton off the top of my head traveling east on 9). IMHO, it really is a stretch to call Shrewsbury a suburb of Boston, when it shares a border with the 2nd largest city (by population) in New England, is outside 495, and not in a neighboring county. Northboro just bare touches 495 and it is not a considered a Boston 'burb (Also in Worcester County). On the other hand, I used to deliver the Middles.e.x. Newspaper in my neighborhood. So there's that.

I know. I have friends in Northboro and lots of people there commute to Boston, almost all of them work in the Boston suburbs or the city. It's certainly considered a suburb of Boston to everyone I know. Hell, they have lots of people commuting to Boston from places like Whitinsville now, down 146. Home prices keeps pushing people further out. I'm in Franklin, further from Boston than Northboro is, and the Boston commuter rail has two stops in town.

It's just a perception thing I think, it doesn't matter. You still in the area?

No. I'm not. I went to UConn and got a job in Hartford upon graduation. That's why I said "depending on how you measure." I had a MA drivers' license until I was 26. I've been in CT ever since (Manchester and East Hampton). My parents and brother's family are up there, so I go back once or twice a month.
