?Sorry - thought it was a non-premium article?

>>One thing he likes about UConn’s coaching staff is their honesty in regards to a player’s pro prospects and the state of the program. “They don't try to sell me a story of NFL guarantees like other coaches,” said Boone. “And they are pretty straight forward on how the team has been doing.” Although he plays both inside and outside on the offensive line, Boone prefers tackle. Luckily for him, that’s where UConn wants him to play. His long arms and athleticism make him a good fit for the edge, but Boone says he needs to improve his leverage.<<

No timetable for decision.

I really want this kid. I really think he could be a three year starter for us on DL and be a real difference maker.

Another punch to the gut sincr this kid did visit this winter. Recruiting on the offense will be a challenge until the kids see the Lashee product on the field.

Meh... I don't consider a Jersey kid going to Rutgers as their first in state commit a punch in the gut. He was only here for Junior Day w/ his school. Not much since. I'm more ticked about Robinson after being in his Top 3 (only non P5 there).

Interesting tweet by Todd. He's been talking about Jones for weeks and has been following him closely. I haven't seen any other source on this before today (Scout now has him holding an offer too). Travis is very quiet on social media).

Can't let this kid leave CT. Would be a solid pick up for our OL
 
Seems like we have some interesting underclassman at camp today, but what about prospects for 2018 like Rondell Bothroyd, Travis Jones and others?

Btw, Travis Jones looks like a decent prospect for either Center or NT.

As noted above - Jones is @ Rutgers today.

Todderick Hunt‏ @TodderickHunt 5m 5 minutes ago
I like Rutgers' strategy of having guys who gain offers at camps, return days later 4 personal time. Has resulted in string of commitments.

Todderick Hunt‏ @TodderickHunt 5m 5 minutes ago
I'd think 2 of today's visitors - Khris Banks and Travis Jones - are guys #Rutgers would like to have similar results with.

Todderick Hunt‏ @TodderickHunt 4m 4 minutes ago
Banks recently told me he could commit somewhere in 2 weeks to a month. Jones told me he wouldn't commit today, but who knows.

LOVE Travis Jones. Kid can move for his size. Did we not offer yet?

It's reported above that we offered? I haven't personally seen anywhere that he has been on campus but that could just be it hasn't been reported.

Plenty of time to flip him. Build that fence around CT!
 
Anyone have any idea why Nico Ragaini has not been offered yet? This kid was considered by many in the state to be the best player in the state. I coach in the SCC and this kid is legit. Great receiver and dynamic punt/kick returner. Just received offer from BC. PG'ing at Avon.
