Kevin Mensah Gets Helmet Sticker on College Football Final

Congratulations!

Well deserved!

Mensah has really blossomed this year. I think it is now safe to say he is our best back since Todman. (I'd rank him ahead of Arkel)

Mensah now with 2,302 career yards which according to my wikipedia research ranks him 8th all time for UCONN, he's got a chance to pass #1 Donald Brown (3,800) at this rate.

External positives and recognition build momentum. Way to go.

And then they mentioned partying at the game v Navy on Friday. So, I’m assuming that Jesse Palmer is part of the telecast. It was nice to see our helmet on the table and they even showed the highlights.

If I still cared about ESPN, this would have made me happy.

 

[Uconnalliance]

Awesome! he’s a silent killer,love that kid!

 

[Palatine]

It's nice to have coverage about the program that is positive. That is something we need. Congrats to Kevin.

 

[J187Money]

Well deserved - he had a great game!

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Should have started him on my fantasy team

And he doesn’t shirk as a blocker. He picked up rushers on a few plays that I saw

Booms and Busts: Week Nine

Christopher Crawford breaks down the best and worst from the college football weekend (AP)

sports.yahoo.com

UConn RB Kevin Mensah -- 164 yards rushing, five rushing touchdowns -- vs. UMass: It was tempting to ignore this one, with all due respect to Mensah; and there is a lot of respect due to Mensah. Why, you may or may not be asking? Because we were doing our best to just not talk about this game between two 1-6 clubs. When you score five touchdowns like Mensah did, we can't. In all seriousness, Mensah has been a bright spot for the Huskies, and he was outstanding in the 56-34 win over the Minutemen.

Mensah is quietly having a pretty good year. Throwing Thompkins in there and we have a run game we haven't seen since Todman

So is my dog, particularly if I make the mistake of feeding her turkey.

Well deserved. Congrats to KM and the O line.

 

[uconnbill]

Well deserved for sure as he showed great balance on his runs throughout the game.

Q - have we ever received a helmet sticker before?

Yeah, Andre Dixon and Donald Brown got one back in our glory years.

This would be beautiful. I feel like it’d have to be negative reinforcement though, throw a pick or miss a blocking assignment...get a deep dog

I like what are working with depth wise at RB for us. Mensah is holding it down, setting a GREAT example of how you should work at that position for the young pups behind him. Thompkins has been a great stop gap option for us, to further help get the youngsters ready for the stage in 2020. That's when Dante Black gets unleashed along side Mensah.. Exciting..
