Great day! Excited we were able to hold on to class as well as get CJ back.

Love that we were able to get almost every kid to stay committed and sign despite everything going on/not playing this season. Very excited for this class and to see if we bring any final pieces in the next couple of months. Would love some transfer portal guys to compliment these young pups!

Edsall isn't a terrible recruiter. He definitely has an eye for talent and maximizing the potential of the player. All things considered I think this class turned out great.

Help! Huskymedic, for some reason none of your text appears in any of your messages lately. Would appreciate any help rectifying. Thanks

I really like what we’re doing skill wise on offense. The age of the 6’5 receiver (minus Metcalf and Evans) is pretty much done. A lot of receivers in the NFL and college are 5’9 to 6’2 tops and very athletic. Love the pieces we’re accumulating. If we can get a QB to take the reigns we’re in good shape I think

UConn FB coach Randy Edsall said his team had few surprises this morning. “We were able to ward off a few people that tried to come in on a couple of them,” Edsall said.

Edsall on QB Tyler Phommachanh: “Like his skillset, like his mannerisms, like his leadership. Like everything."

Edsall states he's impressed with the 2021 class' ability on the field, but even more so from a leadership standpoint #UConnFootball

Edsall said versatility was a big focus in his class.

UCTV Sports @UCTVSports 1m
Edsall: "All of these guys came from winning programs. They know what winning is about."

Neill Ostrout @NeillOstrout 1m
Edsall, joking (we think), on P Haydn Kerr: "He's only 28 or 29 years old."

Neill Ostrout @NeillOstrout1m
Edsall said the Huskies might add 1-3 more players, likely through the transfer portal.

His Dad was an NFL All Pro player Kevin Hardy. Great blood lines for sure

I think we landed a very nice class. There is one kid I forget which, who threw a block on a kick return, I swear the guy he hit still hasn’t woken up. I like last years class as well. The level of players Edsall gets is just such a step up.

Good thing about these Aussie kickers is we don’t need a scholarship since they can collect social security...I kid, I kid..
