Lansanah Safety

[UConn9604]

Danny Lansanah just picked up a safety in the fourth quarter of Bucs-Bengals.

Jon Gruden mentioned both Lansanah and UConn favorably, commenting that Lansanah seems to have found a home in Tampa.

Nice article about Danny. About a month old. (Sorry if you have all seen it. )

I would love to know what Gruden said about UConn.

I would love to know what Gruden said about UConn.

It was pretty brief, during a replay of Lansanah blasting through a fullback's block and tackling the ball carrier in the end zone:

After this clip, he mentioned UConn one more time and said that Lansanah had found a good home in Tampa.

Let's put it this way: the best thing about the reference to UConn is that it was no different than when Gruden had referenced a Notre Dame alum a few minutes earlier.

Since this was the fourth quarter of a blowout preseason game involving the Bucs and Bengals, chances are that I was one of about 147 people across the United States who actually heard it, however.

But hey......it's practice for the announcers too. Maybe U-C-O-N-N will be burned into his memory bank for the reg season....especially after a Branch, Butler, McClain or Gratz pick 6 and a Todman or DB 60 yard TD run.
Wishful thinking....

I follow the bucs on Twitter since I live an hour away and I can tell you his name comes up regularly for making plays. He is going to have a great year. Lots of uconn mentions this season
