Blurb from Dom Amore’s multi-sports Sunday column:
-> Another fresh start
Elsewhere in fresh starts, we will know Saturday how the Jim Mora era started for UConn football. It’ll start the usual way, with the Huskies major underdogs, roughly four touchdowns, against a very good team, Utah State.
One thing Mora seems to like is the Huskies’ overall team speed which, of course, has not matched up well with top opponents in recent years. Utah State will show right away if UConn’s roster overhaul has yielded the necessary upgrade.
“I like where we are in terms of team speed,” Mora said this week. “With team speed a lot of people just talk about the perimeter, but I look at our defensive line. I think our line runs well, our safeties run well, our receivers run well. The burners on our team are Devontae Houston and Brian Brewton, those guys can flat get out and go. But guys like Kaleb Anthony and Aaron Turner can challenge them. And all our quarterbacks can run, all four of them.” <-
