-> “I’m excited for anything that’s to come,” Daniels said. “But I do think it’s an honor to play for Connecticut. This is my dream growing up, I love UConn, love UConn basketball, I used to go to UConn football games. More in-state kids need to stay home and go to UConn. It could not be more apparent this is the place to be. Even if we get off to a bad start, it’s not even a question we’re still going to be there at the end of the season. The coaches do a great job of getting us ready. Nobody cares what you did in February right now.” <-

-> “I had so much learning to do my freshman year,” he said. “I didn’t even realize. I thought I came in prepared, but nobody is ever going be prepared for what college baseball is going to bring you. With guys like David Smith (Tigers draft pick), Ben Huber, Dom Freeberger, those dudes are huge influences on who I am today. I would not be who I am today if I didn’t run into them my freshman year.” <-
