I'm not sure the majority of folks here are shocked about what goes on... it's just a story and something for discussion.
 
David Pindell, a 6'1" JC QB has a recent twitter follow from both Lashlee and Edsall - No comparison to Lawson's film, but looks fast - would be a welcome mature addition to the depth chart - looks like Temple is also recruiting him.

David Pindell on Hudl

Also - Rhett is going in on BC commits - followed another 2 today - Caleb Stoneburner and Noah Jordan-Williams, I think he's following all of their commits at this point haha.

Yeah... I think some of the Twitter follows are for show/psychological/trolling @ this point @ times.(BC)

I'm really looking forward to next year's cycle.

LOL. I'll worry about next year's cycle the second week of February. For now, I'm worried about whether they can fix this year's class, and then look at the grad transfer market in the spring for 2 or 3 pieces of immediate need.
 
Jim Fuller:Ramblings from The Runway: Not exactly great PR for new UConn staff

>>Currently UConn is at 10 commitments for the current recruiting class including early enrollee Omar Fortt. Because of my women's basketball coverage responsibilities, I wasn't able to attend Walter Camp festivities over the weekend. I wanted to catch up with UConn commit Ryan Fitton who I noticed has been following plenty of staff members from Rutgers on Twitter. My colleague Sean Patrick Bowley caught up with Staples coach Marce Petroccio who confirmed that Fitton has been offered by Rutgers so it is a situation we will be monitoring. Also, UConn commit Dallas Hobbs recently was offered by Washington State so we'll see if there are changes to the number of committed players.

If my math is correct (and with the way Diaco gave out scholarships to walk-ons I could have missed a player or two now on scholarship) UConn should have 23 scholarships available. With 21 players on scholarship in the junior class, there shouldn't be a need to hold back scholarships to balance out the classes. Obviously these next couple of weeks are going to be interesting to say the least as an brand new staff is out pursuing prospects.<<

Byczko now reporting to have a UMass offer. Looks like he'll get his shot at revenge on the field during our series.
 
Chris Elmore is a 6-0 270lb DT from Philips High in Chicago Ill (Q. Skanes' alma mater). Current offers from Syracuse, Buffalo, Western Michigan, Central Michigan, FAU. Miami Ohio and Wyoming.

“Western Michigan is still there. They are still one of my top choices,” Elmore said. “Syracuse is in there and I’ll be taking a visit there this weekend, UConn has also gotten into the mix a little bit and I’ve been talking to their new coaching staff.

>>With UConn introducing new head coach Randy Edsall late last month, Elmore is just starting to familiarize himself with the Huskies, but a former teammate of his is already in Storrs. “I’ve talked to Quayvon (Skanes) about it and he loves it there,” Elmore said. “He is on a good road, so hopefully he will be playing a lot next year because he redshirted this past year.”<<

Junior Highlights - Chris Elmore

Have we started going after higher caliber players since Edsall and RL have gotten here? I mean guys with FBS offers.

if they have offers from other FBS programs can we still pull their scholarships right before signing day?

This weekend will tell a lot. Hope we see 5 commits at least. With only 2 recruit weekends left this should happen right away.

Not sure... he was initially offered back in 2015. Some sites have him holding an offer and other sites don't.

It appears that ESPN and Rivals have him w/ an offer and 247 and Scout don't.

Did some sniffing and found this from a few days ago: "South Carolina has moved on from three-star defensive tackle Romello Martin for academic reasons." -- needs to retake SATs.

Let's be honest here Scout has done a lousy job following up on any UConn recruits and why I don't visit there any longer

No argument = that's why I cross reference between sites before posting most offers. Sad thing is that Scout feeds ESPN alot of the time.
