Yes in East Hartford at Renschler the UConn footballs team defense is going to allow his dream schools football team to score at will!!!
As with most threads, this one went off the rails. But here's my two cents on the impact of the a poor showing by our football team against his dream school if that were to happen. While Dook is ruining their reputation of being a basketball by having a respectable football program this season, UConn will continue to show that we are still a basketball school, where he can be the star of the sport that gets the most attention.
Frankly, I don't think the football game will have any impact whatsoever. Based on the type of kid he seems to be, and the fact that he's so highly touted and talented, that it really doesn't matter what program he plays for as far as national (ESPN drooling) perception and/or TV exposure is concerned. He's going to choose the program that he feels is the best fit for him. Let's hope he values the coaching and winning culture that Hurley has established here at uconn.
I could understand choosing your dream school if it still had its Hall of Fame coach, but that's not the case here. I don't know what the culture is at Dook now, but the culture at UConn is earning playing time by being coached up and working hard. I like our culture and hope we continue to get those type of recruits. Of course I'd love to see us land arguably the best recruit in this class who will likely be a one and done, but we've done pretty good over the years, including last year, winning championships with a handful of top 50 recruits and a solid supporting cast around them.
