Key quote from a rivals article today:

"Uconn is so close and I know them well, but I really like South Carolina. I'd say they are the top choice, then Penn State or Northwestern and then UCONN.

[Adios]

Uh oh.

 

[Jimmy Serrano]

Well that sucks.

I think the uncertainty around the BE is really gonna hurt recruiting.

 

[UConn4ever]

have we even offered yet?

 

[Waquoit]

You missed this telling quote, "I had UConn higher on my list, but I didn't like what their fans wrote about ACC teams on message boards."

 

[uconnbaseball]

have we even offered yet?

Nope. Neither has anyone else.

 

[DieHardHusky]

Please offer!

 

[Stinger92860]

Based on what he said, I would not expect him to come here.....

 

[Dann]

he has 3 offers right now, he just hasn't made them public. rumor is that psu/usce/iowa have offered but don't take me up on that.

He should have a look at the 2010 Papajohn's Bowl.

He might have seen a recent SEC championship game.

 

[Adios]

What South Carolina has to their advantage is that Spurrier used to be a pro QB. If UConn ends up in a same conference as UCF, maybe his father can convince him UConn is the place to be.

 

[CTFootball95]

The problem is UCONN waits too long to offer, senior year instead of making 2013 offers now. Look at the 2013 CT kids with offers to BC, Syracuse, etc already...Boeing has three offers in hand, he is close to two more...SEC, Big Ten and ACC. He has been to two UCONN games with coaches. Why they are waiting to offer is beyond me, his Dad was quoted saying if UCONN offers they would commit, but that was during the summer. Now who knows. UCONN has no 2013 offers out there, or very few beyond the Red Lion player. I think his family would want him to go to UCONN, but his Dad played at UCF, I don't think anything is done yet, but please HCPP make the offer. A friend who knows the family said he has trips planned to South Carolina, Penn State (Again), Illinois, Northwestern (again), Indiana, NC State and Notre Dame (Again). He did make two UCONN games even last week vs South Fl.

 

[Adios]

The fact that the coaching staff is waiting is ridiculous.

lmaooooooo

 

[CTFootball95]

Maybe this is why other schools are able to excite 17-18 year old prospects.... Seems like the last three homegames we had Saturday afternoon in the park songs during time outs or pre-kickoffs... Did I even here Sweet Caroline at Fordham?

its nothing personal with how the STAFF works. every kid on UCONNs board, except a few ( devin fuller, wayne morgan ) got offered right away.
this STAFF is not just going to throw offers around without giving a full
evaluation! malik golden had waited for the uconn offer and went with PSU. If the player is really sincere with UCONN in heart, time will tell!
example Dobbs a kid i mentor and talk to on a regular basis, is grounded with Uconn, waited 6 months to be offered. now Dobbs is currently nationally #14 prep player in the NATION, and the phone continues
to ring for him at MILFORD. BC' NC STATE' IOWA' loves Dobbs but
he has his blinders on and standing strong with his heart and UCONN!
Boeing Brown has a very bright future and will love to cheer the kid on
at the RENT down the road. if BB wants UCONN only time will tell!
if kid has the offers they should be bought forward so the STAFF can
see it's foreal and make a move! i support all the CT. H.S. PLAYERS
and would like to see BB stay home, with Dobbs and Cochran, Delorenzo, Reddick.

 

[TouchdownHusky]

Can anyone really be surprised that UConn hasn't gone on the "offensive" with this kid. On the field and off the field, the Huskies continue to find it difficult to "score".

 

[ktuck911]

winning on the field goes a long way with recruits like these... Gotta show more when the lights come on...

UConn wasn't in an SEC championship game.

 

[CTFootball95]

UConn wasn't in an SEC championship game.

I think they meant because South Carolina was in the SEC Championship Game.

Uconnfootball12, don't you speak to or know Boeing or his family, I thought I saw that on the old board and he seemed die-hard UCONN. I had heard or read from the camp comments, Boeing would have or would commit to UCONN if they offer, but as you pointed out, they are really slow. I would hate to lose BB to Penn State or South Carolina, but you can see he is getting a lot of attention from these programs. I don't blame him for not making offers public, get recruited because they want you, not because others do. Also read at O-D4life he is playing in the Offense-Defense All-American Junior Bowl in Dallas Cowboys Stadium this December and made it to the USA Football U19 team roster for USA vs The World. Talk about great experiences on a national stage!

Duh....

 

[Carl Spackler]

We've got three home games in November, and juniors are allowed unlimited unofficial visits as far as I know.

I hope the kid can make it up to the stadium in a couple weeks. Syracuse game should be a blast.

 

[UCDaveD]

Anyone think this could be a power play from the BB camp to maybe try and put the pressure on UConn to offer?
