Is there any coach more classy than Mora with this transfer portal stuff? Amazing.
Do we know that others do not do this? I don't follow another team near as closely as I do UConn, do not read message boards or follow coaches on sm, so I wouldn't know.

Chea was an RE recruit who couldn't crack the DB lineup but played on special teams. He stuck it out and hope he gets to see more of the field somewhere next year.
RE??? holy moly how many of those are left???

The majority of our kids in the portal are just looking for playing time somewhere else, that they just probably will not get here. Also some graduate students may be looking for a degree program that UConn just doesn't offer. I think I remember that was the case once or twice the last few years.

It really is both classy and smart that Mora praises the guys who move on for more playing time somewhere else and offers to help place them. It both opens up roster sports for someone else who might help the two deep, and makes this a desirable place for players who might view their next stop as not necessarily their last spot.

And maybe for guys just looking for a good program and good school.

Re: STEM majors-

I cannot conceive of succeeding in a class like organic chemistry while simultaneously fulfilling the practice and workout obligations of an FBS athlete. I don't care what school you're attending that's a ridiculous accomplishment.

at Lowell we had a hockey player in an engineering program... the scorekeeper is also a dean and was a semi-pro player in the 70s and I mean this in the least favorable way that it was insisted that the student will stay current with the studies with said dean watching him like a hawk.

Some athletes are just nuts and can put it all together but my understanding is that it isn't easy and that summer semesters do a bit of lifting.

Guessing that wouldn't be an "in-season" class

From the outgoing, Passmore, Malcolm Bell, Chea, Hardy and Yates were all initially Edsall2.0 recruits IIRC.
I have local interest in Passmore since he played at Cocoa High School which is a town away from me in Brevard County, FL. A well-respected football program which has won multiple (7) Florida championships which included Passmore's senior year. They won again this season which was their third straight. But Tim never seemed to play so not surprised that his name is in the portal.
