I want this kid @ UConn...




im surprised, I watched his tape and I gotta be honest I was unimpressed. hes got great speed but on all the tape i've seen when hes "speed rushing" he is lined up insanely far outside and coming in on a hard angle that puts him way to far up field and past any Qbs drop depth basically running himself out of the play. any O-linemen with a brain is gonna ride him up field and allow the Qb to step up into a wide open throwing lane. until I see some tape on him lined up in a true DE position and use his feet/hand/quickness/moves to beat him and still be in a position to make a play on the QB I will temper my excitement about is speed.

Each his own. Read the bio and articles out there. He's raw, still growing and has impressed @ each camp he's been at. He needs solid coaching/training and better competition. Exactly the type of kid we should take a chance on.

I dont disagree hes got potential for sure its just we've been down the "hes got raw ability we can refine" rd before. i know we need talent and HCRE is renowned for his ability to develop players im just not sold. i will gladly eat crow though if we land him and he turns out to be a stud.

1:00p today (Zavier's Birthday)


As noted earlier - he may come in as a 2017 or 2018 recruit.

Always assumed this young man would be in a Fall camp this year and not next. And, with that said, here's praying it's good news for us up in Storrs CT....

As a 2017 kid that would be really cool. I don't expect him to play this year, but it sure would be nice for him to have a head start on 2018.

Zavier Scott just committed to UConn as what appears to be a 2017 Commit.

Like the young men who have committed. UConn needs some beef to go along with the skill guys, especially on the O line. Step right up and get your scolly big guys. Huskie pride!

Am I crazy or does it seem like we are hitting NY harder than we ever have? Both the NYC area and upstate.
