Roster Chart - Mid June 2018 update

Exit 4 said:
I've updated my roster tracker. I've assumed Donaldson is on scholarship beginning this fall.

I don't plan to drop the 2017 senior class/transfer list until December when it can be replaced with the 2018 graduating/departing players. I figure some of us might find it like to have it up for a quick reference during the course of this fall when we try to remember who did what last year.

Thanks for all your time and effort in providing us with a roster tracker. I have two questions:
1. What criteria did you base your decision on placing Washington over Bisack as QB2?

2. With the new rule change do you see Krajewski getting in four games?

No question he’ll start . I look at him like the last line of Marines holding of throngs of panicked Vietnamese at the US embassy as Saigon fell ... the thin line between a semblance of functional order and total collapse and mayhem.

I hope we get some suprises on D, but on paper we are hurtin big time.

Edsall said somewhere this late spring that Washington is the most talented of the rest. That said as of today it’s probably Bisack, but I am projecting a bit that by August 30th it’s Washington.

With the new rule change I think everyone that is not hurt and demonstrates they are ready to play mentally and physically will get some snaps. However, if this team is in a bunch of close games these “freshman four” snaps may not be available as need to focus on winning vs player development. Very difficult to project Krajewski at the moment as a freshman given it’s the QB position. If I had to guess he doesn’t see the field this year. Happy to be wrong because it means he is much further along the curve.

The defensive backs were awful last year. I hope Forte and Terry have taken big steps forward over the off season because honestly neither one could cover a rock with a hockey of paint. And they were among our better dbacks.
 
I actually think the defensive backs will be better and that other positions will improve throughout the year and can surprise us by seasons end

I dunno - Swann and Brayden Brown ate up a lot of playing time last year and they're gone. Have to hope Fortt and Coyle take a giant leap forward.

You don’t want us to guess, though. I’m hoping it’s not a QB. I’m guessing it is someone who he was counting on or he wouldn’t have tweeted the quote.

You are right. I have my suspicions based on what I read here, but let’s not guess. I’m wondering if anyone has some real info that can be divulged.

There is recent history of smoke correctly indicating fire here with his tweets..... so, time will tell.
 
Too bad Chief is so busy chiefin’ on basketball. Probably doesn’t have time to advise Edsall right now so we won’t know til UConn anounces

Medic, would you happen to have a list of the PWO’s for 2018 or direct me to where I can find it?
Thanks in Advacnce!

Hornet, my spreadsheet in the link above has been continuously updated this spring/summer. The full roster with PWOs and regular WOs is in the depth chart tab. At this point the UConn football website is not showing Kranich - a reported PWO on the roster just yet. Michael Freeman is another reported WO, but not yet on the website either.

PWO list
LS 1 Brian Keating (soph-pwo)(Diaco)
LB 1 Anthony Repollet (fr-pwo)(Edsall)
LB 1 Justin Bryant (fr-pwo)(Edsall)
OL 1 Brendan Casey (fr-pwo)(Edsall)
LB 1 Lavarey Banton (fr-pwo)(Edsall)
K 1 Noah Iden (fr-pwo)(Edsall)
K 1 Clay Harris (fr-pwo)(Edsall)
WR/DB 1 Cameron Kranich (fr-pwo)(Edsall)

Appreciate it very much
Thanks.
I think I might have looked at it wrong because I did scroll over to the PWO field and didn’t see anything.
Thanks again Exit

Although it’s too early to make projections on paper, the defense will be all about the ability of select true freshman to perform. A strong start by guys like Travis Jones, Pierce DeVaughn up front is a must. A guy like Keyshawn Paul needs to come in a play with a physicality we used to see from Uconn corners. A guy like Morrison needs to show his athleticism out of the gate at safety and someone like Webb or K Jones will have deliver some play making ability at LB.

The optimist’s view on D:
-freshman DL + Fines + C. Thomas surprise us
-revamped LB corp actually plays faster (we did not look fast last year)
-corners play improves because it really couldn’t get worse (rewatch a game from last year- it really couldn’t get worse). I think some of the true freshman might surprise.
-coyle and fortt seem to have a lead to hold the safety positions - all the reps over the past 6 months will have to result in better play.

I know all the reasons to doubt this D. For this morning I thought I would attempt an opposite point of view.

It all starts up front. Really curious about how quickly Jones will help the DL. Jones and Thomas could be a start of something much needed.

Uniform numbers wise, i’d like to see Garson renunbered so one of Bryant or Repollet (spelling) their own number. Both those dudes are sharing as PWO because we are out of numbers 1-49.
 
from the hudl highlights seen on Michael Freeman I sure hope he can find that "Nick Williams" type niche with us early on...

Tenzin Pharachesur?
 
So this puts us at 78 scholarship kids, 8 PWO and 16 WOs for a grand total of 102. I believe for fall camp there is a combined size limit of scholarship and walk on kids at 105, but after the first game the walk on group can be unlimited. Medic, correct me if you know otherwise.

I dont think he is a PWO, just regular WO. Do you have info to the contrary.

What I have for regular walk ons:
RB - Donevin O'Reilly (rs jr)
WR - TJ Vernieri (rs jr)
WR - Justin Morehead (so)
WR - Michael Freeman (fr)
OL - Harrison Newman (rs so)
OL - Ben Bovicini (rs jr)
OL - Douglas Wardlaw (fr)
DL - Carlton Steer (sr)
DL - Andrew Migliaccio (rs so)
DL - Tenzin Pharachesur (fr)
LB - Jeff Woodcock (rs sr)
LB - Rhakim Williams (rs so)
DB - Kyle Williams (jr) <--could he be on scholarship now?
DB - Jarrell Chaney (rs fr)
DB - Quimonei Bell-Hunter (rs fr)
LS - Jeff Sidebotham (rs so)

Hard to break returning players down as PWO vs WO. Traditionally all PWO meant was they were “guaranteed” a spot on the 105 man roster @ start of camp.

Disclaimer: We all know there are no hard guarantees in real life.

Good point, returning WOs probably have earned their way to PWO status the following year....but for simplicity I will continue attempt to delineate the two based on "media reports" and of course - rumors!
