UConn Football Class of 2021 Early Signing Day Thread/Info (12/16/20>12/18/20)

Man this makes me so pumped for next year. Welcome to all the new Huskies!
 
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.
 
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: "All of these guys came from winning programs. They know what winning is about."

Edsall, joking (we think), on P Haydn Kerr: "He's only 28 or 29 years old."

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

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.

Thank you @ huskymedic for this great thread! Missing not being in East Hartford at The Dog House to mingle with the coaches and several hundred other fans this evening. What you provided here helps soften the blow.
Great presentation with the signers and their high light videos.
To the new dogs in the pack welcome, a fine looking bunch indeed!

Looking ahead here are the uniform #s available:

16 kids for 13 numbers. Looks like at least 3 will be sharing with another player unless we have some departures. 8 kids currently share numbers with another player (usually a scholarship player with a non scholarship player - or if a pair of scholarship players, one that players D with with that plays O in order to eliminate the chance they are both on the field simultaneously).
