How Many Scholarships?

[pick6s]

How many scholarships do we have available for this upcoming class?

 

[Exit 4]

Thought I posted a response on this last night. We have 9 graduating seniors + 3 scholarships currently not in use, for a total of 12 slots as a baseline. I think this number could increase perhaps as much as 8 more assuming we have approx 5 redshirt juniors to exit via graduation and I figure something like 3 of the current underclassman will probably exit for the usual reasons (playing time/academics).

Is that nine scholarship seniors and five scholarship rJrs?

 

[Exit 4]

Here are the redshirt juniors:

1) Brandon Bisack (RS)
2) Donevin O'Reilly (RS)
3) Zordan Holman (RS)
4) Tyler Davis (RS)
5) Bryan Cespedes (RS)
6) Ian Campbell (RS)
7) Matt Peart (RS)
8) Philippe Okounam (RS)
9) Kevin Murphy (RS)
10) Connor Freeborn (RS)
11) Eli Thomas (RS)
12) Marshé Terry (RS)
13) Michael Tarbutt (RS)

No public info out there yet on which kids will stick around for a senior year. We will get our first clue when they announce who will be recognized on senior day vs Temple in late November. I'm estimating five of these kids wont return for their last year of eligibility, but I could be way wrong.

I'm sure O'Reilly and Eli Thomas will be back. And we really will need Tyler Davis to return...Peart too.

Peart is in looking towards Occupational Therapy graduate programs so idk if he will be here next year or not pending acceptance

Fuller’s throughts from his article on redshirts posted in the Game Week thread and a separate redshirt thread:

>>The move will allow UConn to redshirt 15 of the 25 true freshmen on scholarship. This is perhaps even more important since UConn’s next recruiting class will probably be somewhere around 13-15 players rather than the normal 25 because of the number of available scholarships.<<

As a newspaper reporter, I feel fuller has to play it safe on estimated size of the 2019 class.

My goodness, we need to recruit 4 DL again and hope they grow up fast.
