OT: 2026 UConn Football Commit - Tyrique Harris (Clearwater, Florida)

[Samoo]

Building the roster now is like the NFL free agency. I imagine coach Candle is looking at all the gaps on our current roster, and looking for ways to fill the gap from his Toledo players or the portal. Since the portal officially open later, he still has time to put together a list based on our needs.

One thing is he definitely needs to upgrade the roster with more P4 level players. He can't just get all the players from Toledo and expect to compete against our next year's schedule with multiple P4 teams. He will need to assemble a roster that can compete either by re-recruit UConn players in the portal, get P4 level players in the portal, or recruit players from the current Toledo commits.

The idea that somehow HCJC2 is going to try to compete with his Toledo team from last year is getting kind of old.

I'm pretty sure he is not taking "all the players from Toledo", but instead is bringing along the cream of the crop - players similar to his best from past years that have made all-league or all-American teams, or god forbid have been drafted in the NFL - you know, the ones he thinks will help win with UConn's schedule.
