They are here to chew bubblegum and to kick ass... and they're all out of bubblegum.They weren’t brought in to smile.
2020 spring roster is posted... I'm putting this link out there before I even give it a look.
Roster notables:
Side note about WOs:
- O'Neill Robinson still listed on the roster despite word that his locked is empty and name plate removed.
- Jaylon Ferrell seems to be missing. If he has left the program, I haven't seen it confirmed anywhere yet.
- Darius Bush listed as a WR (Edsall mentioned he was capable of playing both WR or CB), but had indicated that might start at WR.
- Dillon Harris noted as an LB rather than DL. Give the propensity for the UConn football department to mess up the roster notes we should wait until spring practice to confirm accuracy.
- This is not a surprise, but if you count Dillon Harris as an LB, we still have 13 DLs on the roster now. The DL position is fully restocked.
- Malik Dixon is listed as a sophomore, but I am rather certain he is a redshirt freshman in 2020.
- Russell Dixon 6'2'' is still listed a TE....I thought there might be a chance he moves to WR this spring.
I could see Jahkai Gill and Hayden Jordan at WOs that might move ahead of some scholarship guys at the WR position this spring. Both were really nifty WRs in HS.
I could also see WO Jaylen Jones in the secondary perhaps getting in the mix at safety. He had a scholarship offer to Air Force, attended there for part of a season.
Alfred Chea looks like he has a smile also.It might be my crossover to middle age, but I really don't get the "tough guy in the picture" persona. Yes, it's football, but you're a 176 pound, 17 year old wide receiver. Save the chip for the field. It's okay to enjoy the experience because you've never experienced it before and most likely won't again.
That said, Alexander Wyant has become my favorite freshman.

Mature beyond his years.Make your move soon, because that freshman you love is already a junior!
This is typical for the roster update for us at this time of year.. They simply move up the calendar. If there are position changes/updates/weight changes we won't see that til later... Unfortunately, all that stuff won't happen for another 7 months... once next season starts...
without realizing that, judging by butts on benches, most of them go unused.Goodness they look like a bunch that just got told they have to clean the sh&$ters at the rent after games.
You have too much time on your hands to come up with this lol. But thank you for the info.just an observation; now that the 20 new kids have signed and been given their jersey number we can see which jersey numbers remain available.
5 scholarship slots remaining and 5 eligible receiver jersey numbers remaining:
available;
#15
#17
#19
#25
#45
there are several ineligible receiver jerseys available in 50-79.
And of course they could opt to double up some of these kids with WO jerseys.
