[Skiblets]

How can you not love what Mora is doing. Those young men are having fun while working hard. Great stuff!

Who's the 7th RB in the group here.. I know about Knight, Brewton, Carter, Houston, Burns, and Modeste, but not the 7th young man...

If I was a betting man I'd say it is WR Hayden Jordan btwn Hosuton/Burns and Modeste.

And then some. No question this was Benedict’s hire.

I have to agree. I think DB knew he needed someone who would grow UConn FB and he got a great one. As I said, we might be around 500 or maybe a bit below, but I think we might get a bowl in 2023. (Maybe in 2022)

Appears Peter Rooney and Dylan Niedrowski have chosen to move on. Not pictured here and no longer listed on the roster. Both of their Twitter profiles indicate they’ve chosen to graduate even though they had one more year of eligibility.

Rooney was honored on Senior Day.

Ahh thanks for pointing that out.

Some crazy geographic diversity with this group; CT, MD, both sides of TX, CA, MA, Switzerland, Austria and Canada.

Love to see it. They look like they're all having fun and Mora is right there in the middle of it. I bet this team is going to play hard for each other until the last whistle.

Medic is better...but here's a guess on the TE picture from left to right:
Mountali (looks thick for a FS (he did do a PG year)), Niemenski, Estes, Dunn, Heatherman, coach Marinelli, Johnson and a large mystery man? The mystery man looks family....but I haven't figured it out yet

Almost looks like Ryan Griffin but I don't think it is him.

Russ Dixon is btwn Estes & Heatherman.

Whoops, that's who I meant to note....rather than "Dunn" which is a typo

… and the “mystery man” is Offensive GA Kevin Falaki I believe.

Yep, that looks right.

Excited to see how this group comes along...

 

[Kolumbo]

Let's see Coach Hurley do something similar. I want to see if AJax would make a better QB or WR.

IF ... that is Houston, he has filled out far beyond his listed 165 pounds on the UCONN roster

Another guy not pictured in that tweet, but still on the roster, seems to be OL Rayonte Brown, though WR Jeffreys and DL J. Moore are listed in the portal thread but still on the roster too. Anyone know if Brown is still with the team ? I also thought it was interesting that Mora gave Guidone, Rayonte's #72, in the video, when he was handing out jersey/ #'s to the transfers on late signing day.

Guess we'll know for sure when they hit the field in a week, if they put up a complete spring participation roster, along with clarity on any preps/mid years that have been added.
