I was very impressed by his film. Every highlight film is pretty good, obviously. But the way he moved for a big guy was very impressive. He seemed both quick and fast. He was also very smooth and always balanced. My gut tells me he will be very hard to redshirt.

“It’s awesome and exciting to know that I was going to be heading to a really nice university [as a whole],” he verified. “To have the opportunity to play at this level is pretty big for me. I‘m not sure what I’m going to major in just yet, but I’ll definitely make that decision after I get to school and start taking classes. I know the Business School is extremely good up at UConn, especially with the networking they have set up and how close they are to New York City and Boston. A free education that is worth about $300K is a pretty big responsibility and I’m definitely looking forward to playing.”

I like this kid already.

He's from a high school in Collin County, Texas (I used to drive by it every day) and he mentioned the quality of the business school.

I think I have my first man crush.

Hard not to root for this kid. Sounds like he comes from a great family too.

This certainly shows how important it is for kids to have a Dad at home. What a great sounding young man and one that listens to his father. And, his father sure knows what's important in life.
From what Randy says he sure sounds like a steal and at an important position too.

I had no dad in my life growing up. I had my mom, uncle and grandparents. You need strong family values, which I had. Just sayin.

That works too, as long as your mom, uncle, and grandparents were willing to play football with you and a couple of the neighborhood kids in the backyard.

This kid will be playing DE next fall, as will Travis Jones at nose.

Of course there are exceptions, and it's great you had the support and guidance that you received, but many don't. My point was that, in general, kids need the support and stability of a nuclear family.
