[Adios]

Digging this Texas pipeline thing. They take football too seriously down there.

This kid has starter potential through bulking up.

Welcome to the Family young man.

I would expect to see a game of two in Texas on future schedules given how TX has become a recruiting hotbed for UConn.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

We are bringing in two kids from a town of 8,000 in Texas. Gotta love recruiting in the 21st century! Welcome aboard!

I’d love to get Texas or A&M. We have a relationship with Baylor. We’d have a shot against the others though

 

[Duncan Idaho]

Reminiscent of Wilburn and Wylie from Washington-Wilkes in GA.

We are bringing in two kids from a town of 8,000 in Texas. Gotta love recruiting in the 21st century! Welcome aboard!

The high school they attend has about 2,500 students.

Welcome to UConn, Femi!

 

[HuskyAlum012]

I would be very ok with a recruiting class made of entirely Texas high school football players.

I would be very ok with a recruiting class made of entirely Texas high school football players.

And one or two QB's from Connecticut.

Welcome to the Dog Pound, Femi!!!

 

[Drew]

Looks like he’s got potential to develop into a solid guard prospect for us

 

[uchusky32]

Welcome to the Pound, Femi!

 

[Austin316]

WELCOME TO THE DOG POUND!

 

[MilliniumPrince]

Welcome home Husky

 

[BlueDogs]

Awesome and welcome aboard!

 

[Waquoit]

Is Trophy Club the next Bogalusa?

 

[UConnRock]

Edsall saw something in the kid. He usually wants to see developing Olinemen in camps or their senior tapes. Same district as Robbie Rochester from this year's class. Robbie was 1st team all district.

You’re as old as me.

"An interesting note about Femi is that when asked about leaving the AAC, he was the first and only commit so far to bring up the TV deal. To him, that was the best part of UConn becoming independent"

.
I guess that kills 2 birds with one stone. Gets good players AND gives the boneyard a reason to complain that we don’t get any Connecticut kids because Edsall hates them.

Femi, Congratulations and Here's to a Successful Career.
