Huskies break huddle defensively in 1st 11:11 in a 4-2-5 with 3 true freshmen up front (Jones, Pace, Uguak & Murphy) #UConnFootball

Caleb Thomas and Marshe Terry being pushed.

Edsall has done an amazing job of re-stocking the roster in a short period of time. We now have depth and competition at every position. We're probably a year away on defense but the future is bright.

The future is now on offense, I expect some high scoring games.

>>Even before the UConn football team held its first preseason practice it was pretty much a foregone conclusion that Hergy Mayala, the Huskies leader in catches and receiving yards, and spring football star Kyle Buss would hold down two of the starting wide receiver positions. The other spot, however, has created one of the most intriguing battles during camp. Senior Tyraiq Beals and sophomore Keyion Dixon, each had at least 30 receptions during the 2017 season, have split time with the starters at almost every practice.

Beals, who caught six touchdown passes in a game as a senior in high school, has no qualms about venturing into the tough areas to secure drive-sustaining catches. Dixon is more of a big-play threat and has certainly been used on deep routes during camp. “It is not really a cutthroat battle but we know who ever is in there is going to have to do the job,” Dixon said. “We have been feeding off of each other and helping each other out.”<<

Marshé Terry and Omar Fortt should be standouts on D. The O Line will be much better as will Pindell. The fact that we've identified some pretty good depth at all positions---and are way ahead of last year's "collective confusion", should give us all some confidence. Don't be shocked if we're the surprise team of the AAC this year.
