Maryland OT transfer RJ Dill

[B1GEast]

Will make his decision on Wednesday, it's going to be Rutgers or Uconn, I think he was on campus this weekend, stay tuned.

Nice update bro... I sure hope it's us...

Will he be at a table with a Rutgers and a UConn hat and lots of cameras?

Close. Instead of putting on a hat, he's going to wear a doo-rag in the color of the school he commits to.

 

[epark88]

Word on the street: he'll be arriving to his presser on a moped...

 

[Waquoit]

Hope he's a hoop fan and went to the game on Sunday.

Dill would be a huge step towards a bounce back 2012, as it more than makes up for Jimmy Bennett not being back (and I'm assuming that, given the timing of the injury, even if he came back to Uconn for his 5th year he wouldn't be near 100% for the start of the season, but we have never heard anything officially on whether or not Bennett is trying to get on the field next year).

 

[UConnRock]

UConn Advantage - came in second in his original decision, so he obviously liked the coaches and school. His recruiting coach (Hughes) and position coach (Foley) are still at UConn so there remains a familiarity.

Rutgers Advantage - for a kid with one more year left he may be enticed by the perception of the team. Rutgers returns a bunch of players and will likely be projected to finish higher than UConn.

Equal - The need for an experienced OT. With Bennett gone there is certainly a spot available at UConn, and based on what Trevardo Williams did to the Rutgers OTs there is no doubt of a need there.

It would really suck to finish second for a second time.

 

[NutmegState]

We play Maryland next season. That can't hurt...

It would be nice to get a couple of big pit bulls on offensive line. Dill and Brodie will work just fine.

 

[ktuck911]

Dill would definitely work right now.. Don't think Brodie would be on the depth chart just yet, but I still hope we him.. Redshirt him ( put some more beef on him ) and unleash him come the '13 season....

I heard this is a done deal. Let's hope it is.

Really want Dill to come to UCONN. Classy kid, and an instant starter on the offensive line. He is a very good tackle and it can't be understated how great of a get he would be.

Hope your right. Can you share where you heard this?

 

[Jimmy Serrano]

Anyone know when this announcement is going down today?

 

[J187Money]

Hope your right. Can you share where you heard this?

Unfortunately no. And regardless of what I was told, nothing is done until it is done.

 

[NJfballfan]

Sorry guys, he committed to Rutgers.

 

[J187Money]

Sorry guys, he committed to Rutgers.

Which is why I said what I said. Never know until it is final.

 

[Waquoit]

Sorry guys, he committed to Rutgers.

Never too late to make another bad decision. The effects of an MD education, I guess.

One of these days, we're going to beat Rutgers for a recruit. One of these days. Sigh.

[Jimmy Serrano]

Well this sucks.

 

[Palatine]

I thought you couldn't transfer to a team that plays your old team.

 

[Yonick]

Sorry guys, he committed to Rutgers.

Well we have a NJfball fan saying it's Rutgers with no source. We'll have to wait for something more official than NJfballfan's word.
