That seems like they’re trying to make excuses for him committing to UCONN

It’s for people trying to reconcile “no stars” on the usual recruiting sites and the “stars” on the KO/PK/P focused sites.

Was wondering about him. Kicker would be second, then. Can't edit or delete posts anymore!

 

[DoctorWho85]

Id never thought id be this excited about a kicker. Can't wait to see some touchbacks on kickoffs

Wow. Another one (Robby Rochester-2020) from my adopted TX home town, Southlake. Welcome to UConn, Joe! Both my kids graduated Southlake Carroll HS back when Chase Daniel, Garrett Hartley and Greg McElroy, among others, played. But I haven't been to many games since. Guess I should change that and check you and the team out at Dragon Stadium before you leave for Storrs!

Outline conversion cut off last few lines so here they are:

”When McFadden made his decision at the end of August, he began calling the UConn coaches, feeling their joy. “You’ve made my week,” Edsall told him. “They pitched to me, they’re going to turn the program around,” McFadden says, “and I can be a piece in the puzzle for that, and that’s the thing that really appealed to me.”

This is the best news for UConn football in a long time. Kudos to Coach Edsall!

5* and those were the schools that offered? Is he our first 5*?

5* and those were the schools that offered? Is he our first 5*?

He’s not a 5* in the “traditional” sense.

The KO/PK/P focused sites have him rated as a 5*/6*. 247 has him listed as one of the Top 8 Kickers nationally and 2* (they only have (3) 3* Kickers).

 

[BlueandOG]

This young man is a superstar and a scholar. UCONN is going to welcome him like a hero.
