UConn football roster preview: Quarterback
The QB room will feature a competition for the starting job, perhaps one that plays out over the season, and decent depth as well.

I love how Turner uses his feet to keep the play alive, rather than just committing to the run if he’s pressured in the pocket. I don’t think he should be in the first two in the depth chart this year by any means, but I think he could be good for us eventually.
I thought Nigel Fitzgerald impressed enough this spring to at least warrant a more optimistic prediction about his playing time from these guys.![]()
Roster Preview: WRs & TEs
The Husky pass-catchers offer promise for a more prolific Husky offense in 2022.uconnhuskyfootball.substack.com
We actually have positions this year.
Positionless football was an idea that was ahead of its time.We actually have positions this year.
Way too much depth and speed with Houston and Brewton….they both need some slot opportunities.He's correctly not mentioned among the WR's but Brian Brewton is someone who needs to get receiving opportunities. Brewton's got that Nick Williams potential to take it to the house every time he touches the ball. I expect the same to be true for Rosa.
Would it be Happy Days?I'd have no complaints if it was Marion, Ross and Fitzgerald.

One position group might be the most talented on the team. The other is replacing two key starters from last year.uconnhuskyfootball.substack.com
Do you think Randy personally recruited… anyone at all?View attachment 78635
They left out he had an offer from Boise St and ULM and some other schools. I think this shows how him and Haynes were consistently good and probably our best interior guys, Edsall kept him on the bench probably because he wasn’t personally recruited by Edsall but rather Corey and J.B Grimes.
I know he recruited a few guys, Haynes, Rooney, and Dylan Niedrowski just to name a few were recruited by Edsall.Do you think Randy personally recruited… anyone at all?
