Message: [QUOTE="AZHuskiePop, post: 5192587, member: 1609"] Eric had a troubled past when UConn became desperate for players after graduation and desertion and recruits backing out of commitments. Or declared ineligible. We were in a real bind . There was no portal so getting enough guys to practice guys left little other option I called them NFL replacement players . Cobb was big and strong but couldn’t defend a lick . He wasn’t bad offensively. Our actual recruits were Carlton , Whaley , Polley all still very young kids and lowly rated . . The eight best class in the AAC . They’re all playing professionally. Cobb’s claim to fame was he had a great offensive game against Cuse his second years under Hurley After that he disappeared . I don’t remember if he used up his eligibility or transferred This is a tragedy and regardless of his past this is something he will have to live with . A very sad event . [/QUOTE]
