QB Joe Fagnano > Baltimore Ravens Mini-Camp/UDFA

[cullaville]

Still spinning that excuse I see.

First of all…there is no proof that he was injured…just a rumor probably started by his agent to get him out of the bowl game.

Second…so..getting over this supposed injury and playing in the Shrine Bowl got him what exactly? A UDFA offer the same as he was projected before the bowl game.

Third…did his injury preclude him from standing on the sidelines?

Let’s face it…he just didn’t want to go to a bowl he went to the year before. He didn’t want to go to a bowl without his head coach. He was done with UConn after the FAU game.

That’s fine….I will still always be thankful for him delivering a great season (just like I am appreciative for what Mora did)…I just think it was a crappy way for him to end the season.

Bell was obviously getting drafted, and as opposed to JF, he at least made an appearance to support his teammates.

Bell playing one series is not supporting his teammates.

He just wanted to say look at me I played in the game to help my teamates.

What he did is just as bad, or worse, that not showing up at all.

Getting healthy is spin now?

You sound like you were really traumatized by this.

I thought this at the time myself as it took away from the guys on the field I felt like considering there was momentum on that drive.

Thinking it over I think Bell meant well but was put into an awkward position due to the massive dropouts. I think Joe opting out led to the massive drop outs.

It's really hard to get drafted as a QB as only 10 to 12 QBs get drafted each season. I think not getting drafted helps a QB like Joe as he can pick a team in which he sees a path to sticking. Kind of surprised that the Ravens are bringing in Pavia as well which may or may not have impacted Joe's decision to join the Ravens if he had know that.

I can't stand Pavia, dude has no humility. Really hope Joe beats him out, maybe that'll humble him a bit lol

Pavia is tailor-made for the UFL.

I want Joe to outperform Pavia

That’s a good deal for Joe….I’d take a chance on him all day every day over Pavia. Pavia needs to learn to speak Canadian. Or whatever language they speak in Repole’s dog shit league.

But, I kinda feel like we could have had full participation in the Fenway Bowl without jeopardizing a second day draft spot or a UDFA deal in Baltimore.

Coach on the field. That's a tie-breaker.
For now I'll choose to put a single disappointment aside and focus on what he did here and wish him success that reflects well on UConn.

And he'll never forget that. I wouldn't be suprised if he mentions you in his post-Super Bowl win interview.
