Devaun Ford - WR/RB/CB - from Mashpee Mass.

I like the fact this kid is sporting the UConn gear during the visit. Surely a positive sign.

I also feel like we have decent odds with Mass kids who are sometimes overlooked and perhaps not looking to get too far from home.

Ford is a repeat visitor (here back in February):

For this kid I feel like there is a lot of time and things that could happen between now and signing day.

That kid weighs 285 lbs? I'd like to meet his personal trainer. I would have guessed 235 lbs. max.

247 has him @ 285lb, his Hudl has him @ 280lb and Rivals has him @ 275lb . Pick one, either way he's a large kid in person ;)

You don’t think outrecruiting schools like Clemson, Florida, FSU, LSU, and Michigan is asking for too much?

Yikes.

I say that because it is our home state. We should be able to keep folks at home. I do understand it is CT and I also moved out of it but come on!

His brother is going to be on the basketball team at Princeton next year. I would keep an eye out for the top-tier academic schools here.

C’mon what?

Here’s a direct quote from a CT kid who just committted to ND today:

“They play a national schedule and they’re on national TV every week," he said. "It’s a great school to play at and while I’m there they’ll play teams like Ohio State and Wisconsin. That will be really exciting.”

Under normal circumstances breaking the P5 cachet on high end State kids continues to be very difficult (not impossible, and UConn should never stop trying but it’s a steep climb).
