surprise Foley wasnt selected at least 2nd team.

Would have liked to have seen arkeel get an honorable mention for all he's done running/receiving/returning, but i think he'll find his way in next year

I agree. I think every team in the conference would start him.

 

[uconnphil2016]

I agree. I think every team in the conference would start him.

He's got the highest ceiling of any of our underclassmen with the exception of Summers (maybe). Ferocious pass rusher, bully, big body, athletic...he's got NFL written all over him.

Thomas' numbers are more than comparable to Adams at WR. He has more receptions, more yards, but less TD's. Not the end of the world by any means, but he did deserve that recognition.

I'm not sure if Adams was a ST honorable mention or a WR honorable mention, but probably more for ST. He did lead the conference in avg yds/KO return.

There were other WR's that had better pure receiving stats than Adams and Thomas that did not get any mention. Thomas was 8th in the AAC in receptions and out of the top 10 in both yards and TDs.

For sure. Next year when the offense has another year of continuity with same QB and OC, we'll see Thomas' numbers rise and he'll be on that all conference list.

I think this just shows that the seniors get a little bump, which is fine. I thought Obi was dynamite for the last half of the season, but I have no problem with Adams getting the nod.

Obi was awesome. Loved his progression. Excited to see him next year.

If only our coaches were better. Then everyone would be on the first team. Other than for supplanting Matakevich.

LOL. You are relentless.

I wouldn't want Friend from Temple either. He couldn't help.
