Welcome to the Dog Pound, Caleb!!!

(I want to be the first to say that this was probably the "player to be named later" in the Durell Robinson trade)

My friends, I have watched this kid in HS. He has caused much stress and heartache among opposing coaches here in Austin. I'm gonna try my best to not be hyperbolic, but he might be our best WR in a very long time. We have such a stacked WR room with him, Bell, and Porter.

Next year, our skill positions might be the deepest ever and we have a ton of P4 transfers into our defense. The bowl game was only a week or so ago. I already can't wait for next season!

By all means, feel free to hyperbolic... it's my favorite type of bolic...

Awesome! WR’s don’t come unless they have someone to throw to them. Between this and Bell staying, feels like we may get see a different style of offense!

Or a better version of the same style. Either way, I'm good with it...

Cloud 9....that's where UConn football fans are at, at this point. Man does it feel good after so long!! Welcome Caleb!

Loading up for shoot outs if we get into them.

Wow! Fantastic pick up by the staff.

While I hate the portal as constructed, I am loving waking up every day to unwrap a new gift for the holidays.

So, he was the best receiver in Austin and like 2nd or 3rd best receiver in TX his senior year (2022). Top 10 WR nationally. Has UConn ever had a player rated this high during his HS days? (According to 247, it's not even close.) Pretty much all Austin area coaches thought he was NFL bound. He has speed, elusiveness, good hands, large catch radius, great route running, all around great instincts. We have some good HS players here in Austin and Caleb make them look silly and/or like little kids. The only reason he's not a universal 5-star in HS was because of his size 5'11" 170 ish lbs. But he plays much bigger than his size.

Skyler Bell's greatest trait is his exceptional route running. He knows when to speed up or slow down to gain separation. I think he knows where to be better than the QB at times. Caleb should be just as good if not better than Bell here and that's really saying something.

This is a big, big, big deal! Get excited folks!

please qb's wake the funk up and put the ball in these boys' chest. Heck - lodge it IN their chests.
let's go.

Love this pick up.

UConn has some money coming from somewhere to compete for these transfers.

He followed Garrett Wilson from Lake Travis High to Ohio State. Hopefully can regain that path in National Flag blue and white
