Maybe not. Remember how bad Pindell looked?

I may be in the minority, but I want a mobile pocket passer, not a run-first or option guy. I never saw pro potential in Pindell.

Nah. I said last week this dude had a 1900 yd season at Maine and had productive games against BC and UMass on tape.

If im gonna bring in another P5 back up with no game experience I'd rather rock with Evers. He has shown ability in games. All he needs is slight improvement in his accuracy and he could be really effective.

I couldn’t agree more

Don't need pro potential in college QBs. Mobile QBs are a problem in college. Id take Thomas Castellanos in Sammis's offense all day

I don’t disagree - I definitely have reservations about Evers. I think it’s important to remember that last year he arrived after spring camp, so he only had the fall camp to prepare. Come next season (if he’s still here) he will have had two full offseasons to learn and prepare.

Didn’t Evers walk today with the seniors? Will he be back?

I think UConn gets a portal transfer. Love to look at Lonergan if he portal or even Minicucci.

Joe is mobile. Joe is not a runner, although he can certainly get chunks. I don't think a runner fits what Mora wants to do.

Who cares about pro potential. Pindell is one of the best QBs to ever play here.

Pindell had a good year in '18, with >3000 total passing/rushing yards. I take Fagnano over Pindell 100x of 100. It's a more complete offense. Let's also remember Pindell had 19 passing TDs to 13 INTs.

Of course it fits. Why wouldn’t you want everything?

Kudos to the D for knocking the QB out with a clean hard hit. I think he broke his hand.
Expand ...

I hope he's okay and recover from his injury. I hate it happened.

JwittersPAC said:
Yes good job breaking someone’s hand. I do not wish for injuries.
Expand ...

Playing football has a chance of injury. No matter what you can do to make any sport as safe as possible, people will get hurt.

Hope he is fine...

Don't feel sorry for them at all. Remember they compete with UConn in recruiting. Not sure NE can support UConn, BC & UMass. Liked it better when Mass was an FCS program.

If the rumors are true, Albany, URI and UNH (New Hampshire) are being looked into by the MAC. They want a few traveling partner for UMass, since Buffalo is the closet school to them.

I'm taking the rumors with a gain of salt, but it's an interesting time we are living in.

Let’s not forget - Fagnano was a benchwarmer until he wasn’t. People were done with him after less than two games of work in 2023. Now look where we are. And fwiw being a benchwarmer behind Joe isn’t anything to be ashamed of.
Expand ...
No, the point was that Fagnano was a productive proven QB at a level down
 
Palatine said:
I think UConn can find a loophole and get Fagnano another year of eligibility. Maybe a Covid+ year.
Expand ...
Fagnano goes for his 8th year? Will he be an Assistant Professor next year. lol. On a serious note I think UConn’s starting QB for next year is not on the team yet.
 
storrsroars said:
I don't think we have our 2026 QB yet. Evers would be a huge step backwards.
Expand ...
Of course, in 2024 the consensus was that Fagnano should never see another meaningful snap at UConn. We'll see what happens in the offseason and root like hell for whomever gets the nod.


If Fagnano has "long Covid" can he get a 2nd COVID year?

He has already been in college for 7 years. Is it possible to get an 8th year? I guess we are at the point that players could stay in college until their 30 years old.

Based on what they are doing in basketball now maybe we can get an NFL backup. Does Tommy Divito have any eligibility left?

Here are some of the QBs that played in the NFL with eligibility. I would go after Mahomes. I heard he is good.

Cam Edwards was great again today. On that key first down on our last scoring drive with a screen pass to Bell, it was Cam making to block to free Bell. Cam was our offensive MVP today.

Also his effort blocking that let Fagnano get into the end zone (barely) on the opening drive.

Not sure which game it was, perhaps Ball State where we got a glimpse of Evers and a couple of others. I dunno, they looked pretty good. We have only seen that tiny glimpse but in that group I am thinking UConn could find a starter. We don't know what kind of progress they have made this year.

It’s the second or third time you’ve brought this up. Can you point to the genesis of this rumor (a link ?).
