Could uconn convince Miller Moss from USC to come to Storrs as QB -- rumor is he wants B10
If convince=dollars, the answer is no.

In all seriousness, I would think more Hank Bachmeir than that level guy.

Reminder:

Immediate 30 day window to enter portal when there is a head coach change.

Otherwise
  • Winter Window: December 9, 2024 – December 28, 2024. This period begins right after the conference championship games, allowing players to make decisions before bowl games and the spring semester.
  • Spring Window: April 16, 2025 – April 25, 2025. This follows spring practices, giving players a chance to assess their position on the depth chart and transfer if needed.
Grad Transfers can enter anytime.

USC QB Miller Moss is expected to look at Michigan, Auburn, Iowa, and Louisville once he enters the NCAA Transfer Portal, per @PeteNakos. UConn needs to make its case to Moss, too.
UConn needs to find a QB that actually has played FBS. No way Miller Moss is coming to UConn but there will be plenty of QBs with experience they should be able to get. Need to offer $500k plus. Especially if NIL is expected to be $2 million plus. Biggest weakness on the team is a good throwing QB.

Iowa is ranked 35 and Auburn is ranked 66, and UConn is 60, according to CBS Sports. Iowa is 44, Auburn is 70, and UConn is 59, according to Fox Sports. From what I understand Michigan spent a lot of money on another QB. UConn may have a chance with Moss. I totally agree with CJasmer the biggest weakness on UConn's team is a good throwing QB.

No way is UConn getting Moss. He wants to play in SEC or BIG. UConn needs to get a QB with actual experiencing playing in the FBS that can throw. Do not take another chance on a bench warmer.

I stand by what I posted earlier. Get a guy at QB with proven production and that has shown accuracy on tape from either lower level FBS or FCS that won't take up 25 percent of your budget and get him Bell, Sheffield, Hanson, Shammar type weapons to throw it too.

Keep in mind you're gonna need to bring in impact players at other key positions like LB, DL maybe even an OT. I wouldn't commit that much of the budget unless the kid was a legit star but they cost more than that it seems.

Depends what the budget is but I agree the most important thing is a QB that has either been successful throwing at FCS or lower FBS level. UConn will have to spend money just to keep their best players already on the team. Cannot lose their top 2 WR or running backs in the portal.

It’s Xmas and it’s the time of year one can ask for anything, but seriously guys - manning, moss? Let’s focus on a former highly recruited kid who can’t get on field. That is NE 2.0. That’s our ceiling, for now.

Maybe if Underwood and Moss are going to Michigan, someone like Jaydn Davis becomes available.

Maybe Puglisi sees the writing on the wall with Jaden Rashada and Gunner Stockton in front of him on the depth chart.

I know he probably won’t do it, but I would love to hear Mora honestly answer what kind of QB he is looking for in the portal. I know that’s tricky because he doesn’t want to throw Roberson or Evers under the bus, but I tend to agree with other sentiments in this thread that some sort of starting experience matters.

You can keep signing ex-4 stars and ‘hope’ they finally get it…or get a 2 or 3 star who has had reps who has shown they can play. Yes the upside may not be as great, but as we saw with Fagnano…you don’t need a star…you just need competence at QB. But..i do think that Fagnano was at the low end of competence. I don’t think he is the model of what they want….but he showed reps are better than stars.

Also…regarding Welliver…he may be the answer..but as we know…the team needs multiple qbs who can start.

Maybe if Aller comes back then Beau Pribula will portal and we can get a good one. That would be an amazing scenario.
