Seems Mr. Coney earned a scholly! Congrats young man.

With all due respect and I do mean with all due respect I believe that it was mentioned earlier in the week. Having said that I'm not being a wise guy I appreciate any mention of these walk-ons getting rewarded, especially that I'm also a Naugy guy. Congrats Mr Coney. Few more weeks and it's showtime. Can't wait

While posted elsewhere, I'm glad this has its own thread. Walk ons take a leap of faith and fight an uphill battle. Dedication and hard work should be rewarded. It is great to see how Diaco not only talks the talk but walks the walk regarding walk ons.

I'm looking forward to seeing how Bryan (and other former walk ons like Jason Thompson) contribute this year.

Coach has upped his hair game. No bucket hat could possibly contain it. I expect good things this fall.

Love Diaco's new look and the awesome spirit of camaraderie on this team. We're headed for greatness this fall.

Ramblings from The Runway: Naugatuck's Coney hard work is rewarded at UConn

>>Diaco has made it a point of identifying in-state products who he wants be a part of the program and he brings them in as preferred walk-ons selling them on the possibility of earning a scholarship. Madison's Nick Vitale, Shelton's Jason Thompson, Hebron's Will Rishell and Higganum's Sean Marinan are among those who have taken that path and now it was Coney's turn.

"He has some talent and skill that has given him a chance to produce with the guys so he doesn't look out of place," Diaco said.."He works hard, he works his tail off. He worked hard in the fall, did everything that everybody asked him, was one of the top performers in winter conditioning, came out in the spring and was one of the top performers again in the summer so it ends up becoming easy.<<
