NY DB Shamel Lazarus (@ShamelLazarus1) recaps his recent visit to #UConn

>>One thing that stood out to Lazarus during the trip was the talk he had with two of the staff’s assistants."I mostly hung out with coaches Cox and Wholley. They are real believers in my game and they think I can have a big impact early. They told me that they are 100% sure that I'm the guy,” said Lazarus.<<

>>“UConn is currently very high on my list. I would like to finish my visits first, before I make my final decision. I’m visiting Boston College next Tuesday and Pittsburgh and Rutgers the following week,”Lazarus said.<<

Love it. Edsall and staff continuing to impress.

@Excalibur I think you asked why the usual suspects hadn't killed Edsall on the offer lists.

Do you have your answer now?

Love the attitude and confidence Shamel...great choice...welcome aboard! Add in the Huskies beating out Rutgers twice in one day for two high profile recruits...what a day! And what a statement about RE 2.o and staff...way to go... turning this ship around quickly... way to be UConn Strong!

Kid has some good offers and a lot of interest. I'm shocked were signing DBs this well. I know there will be 5 on the field but damn. Thanks Byron and obi.

Get that young man on a proper training/nutrition program and he could become a hybrid beast. Wow. Love this commit.

It's unbelievable what this staff has done on the trail so far. LOVE both commitments today. Now let's carry this momentum onto the football field.

12 commits? Is this some sort of NCAA violation?

Hats off to the entire staff.

Do you have your answer now?

Yes. You learned your lesson.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

This is so the opposite of how Diaco recruited lil

 

[whaler11]

Yes. You learned your lesson.

I've been teaching the lesson. Maybe in the future instead of people crying when they don't like the message they will pay closer attention.

Were you teaching the lesson in 2016 when you started spouting off after the first commit, only to end up with a class that was filled with guys who had multiple offers, many from P5 schools? Just checking . . .
