Welcome to the Dog Pound, Remon!!!

 

[Adios]

Excellent technique and strength. This kid must have went under the radar.

Highlights

Am I wrong to assume he doesn't come here unless Steven Krajewski was still positive about UConn?

I was thinking the same thing... reasonable assumption.

He's also currently undersized. Time to put in work young man. Welcome big dog!!!

 

[Bonehead]

Welcome Dawg!!

 

[rbny1]

Welcome to UConn, Remon!

 

[uconnbill]

He can play anywhere along the line and played left tackle this past year.

The facilities at Colquitt Co are nicer than some colleges not named UConn.

Welcome to Storrs, Remon

Welcome Remon. Looks like a big help for the run game is on the way. Great footwork.

 

[oldanintheway]

Congratulations Remon and Welcome.

 

[Rosebud70]

Comes from a great program

I hope you're right because I stand by my belief that Steven Krajewski is the best quarterback we have right now. And I hope Remon helps protect his fellow alum...

 

[Dooooooomed]

Love to see them Southern kids coming up to the North.

 

[DoctorWho85]

Welcome to the pound. Can't wait to see you on the field

 

[Exit 4]

Has great balance, good pad level, plays with leverage...

 

[metsfan2323]

I love the athleticism and the long arms. Watch the play starting at 2:19, he ends up blocking 30 yards downfield. On the fourth play in the video he blocks two people and the second block is a pancake.

Looks like Randy found a hidden gem.

Yes, you're wrong for making that assumption. He's not turning down better offers to come here -- it's his best offer. Thus, while you may be right, there is no reason to assume he needs a sign from Krajewski to come here.

Glad to have him. Can grow into the size needed or move to Defense if he has the quickness and agility he appears to possess.

Don’t you dare get excited...been down this road 9 times. Time for Kids to perform.

Slow down boneyard! Undersize, not highly recruited, and from Georgia he will not go under the radar.
Needs to put on fifty pounds of muscle to play D1 football. Looks like a redshirt If you ask me.

Yes, but we need football players. The recruit speed with nominal football skills routine was a big fail. If he can build up and maintain speed and agility, it’s a good get.

Honestly, don't think we'd have offered if we didn't see those traits in him... We're clearly moving fwd in terms of the kinds of recruits we're bringing in... his current lack of size stands out, but there's gotta be something we saw that tells us that he's going to provide a lot more for us in time...

 

[hardcorehusky]

RE has a history of taking undersized lineman and making them really good. We have had this discussion ad infinitum on this board. If he is athletic and has good hip turn, RE will work with him. If the kid puts in the effort on his end, it will work out well.
