I think this happens...this shutdown is indefensible. Young people need the opportunity to make contact/visits to make critical decisions.

UConn offers Dre Spriggs 6'3'' WR from Harlan Texas.

We are at that point with just room for a couple more kids in the 2021 class where we might see a new offer go out quickly after other recruit commits elsewhere. Probably not a coincidence the 6'4'' Gasden (WR prospect) commits to Syracuse a day ago and now this offer is out. The staff appears to be on the hunt for a tall/big catch radius WR to compliment guys like Tracey, Turner, Marion (from last year) and Bush (from last year).

Other offers: Bryant, SFA, Fresno, USTA, TX State, Lamar, Coastal Carolina, Navy, Sam Houston, New Mexico, Texas Southern and Hawaii.

Yup.. We need a BIG WR ... We have enough medium to smaller guys already... Edsall seemed to be on Gadsden (twitter), but now that the young man chose another school we still need to address the position. This Spriggs kid plays with some "dog" in him too.. Would be a solid fit for us:

He has a very good step move to the inside. Can see better on the 247 junior highlights.

Makes great catches on balls thrown where they shouldn't be. Short, to the wrong side, requiring a dive, etc.
If he could only show he'll get the ones four feet over his head I think we'll have what we need.

Does not playing football this year make any difference? I am not sure just curious

Sprague03 · Sep 20, 2020

maybe with the current cast of TE coming back, edsall and co. decided to make tactical changes in recruiting? Coincidence that Chris Johnson decommitted as well?

I’m more concerned about distant kids not being able to physically get up and visit campus on official visits. Extended dead period can’t be helping.

When did Johnson recommit?

That Queen song is ringing in my head right now, in a bad way (another one bites the dust....)

Well... I guess not playing in the fall was low on his list of reason.

Losing a kid to an Ivy League school ain't such a bad deal. Best of luck to him... I get this decision.. all day long....

Scout giving props to Ikenna Ugbaja who is planning to make his commitment announcement this week - very hard to read the tea leaves on this one. I think he has Sunday ability.

He can get that opportunity playing up in Storrs, staying close to home. He can ask a few guys about that, current and past... I'm talking DL (Fatukasi, Stephen, Reyes... and T Jones is next)

In fairness, he's going to one of the premier universities in the world. As much as I loved my time at UConn had Yale or Harvard came calling I would have absolutely went there

Really good power and bend. As I said before, I think he has Sunday ability if he makes the effort.

As expected, 3-star OT from Texas decides to stay home for the Longhorns.
