I suppose that's a decent offer list...

Welcome to the Pound, Quay!

I am one that usually puts stock in the other offers a kid has. It's not a definitive predictor of talent level, but it's nice to know some P5 schools were interested. Their is a reason these schools are, for the most part, better than UConn - recruiting. So this is a very encouraging addition to the fold.

Here? This kid wants to come here?

We have two young SC DL on the team. He gets to stay in the EST. Maybe he likes the staff and appreciates the opportunity. This is the kind of thing that happens more regularly elsewhere. Let’s make it a thing here.

Whoa, a South Carolina kid has offers from Maryland, North Carolina, Oregon, UCF, and WVU, and wants to play here? This would be a huge get for Edsell.

Don’t be an ass.

This is a great commitment from a kid with a significant list of offers. Why do some here feel the need to make stupid comments that appear to question his decision-making?

He'll be playing against nearly as many P5 opponents as he would in a P5 league and for a team and coach with a history of developing players that go on to the NFL.
Enjoy it, wish him well and try being positive.

Because folks like Dream Jobbed exist and think they are being funny or coy but I feel this is a the type of player that RE2 looked for during his 1st UConn gig and they are a great fit
BTW - DB the db just gave a public backing and endorsement for RE2 so we can relax all those ridiculous who's coming here next year as HC threads
Those players that probably should have stepped off the team most likely have and RE2 is starting to again get some bigger, stronger faster athletes to Storrs
It's going to take a while but I think things may be looking up- they have to

I just noticed this. I know some of you may like this too. On Evans' HUDL page it lists him as a wrestler as well.

Committed just after a kid with no other FBS offers. This kid looks like a great if not confusing signee.
