WR Shawwn Boose to Uconn

[Buffett10]

He's playing sprint football at Post U. Sprint football is for smaller people I think the max weight limit is 175.

 

[Adios]

What club - he's playing football for another school?

Club = UConn students.

That awkward moment when you realize you drink the finest scotch and smoke the kindest weed....

But don't understand what the cool kids on the BY'd are talking about.

Goodnight!!

You didn't have TO LIke that dick.

If you read his tweets the kid just sounds like trouble.

According to his twitter he is going to Uconn next year.

I'm pretty conversant with ncaa rules re xfers, 4 yr, walk-on at 2 yr college, etc.

But I have no clue how the ncaa treats this sport and this school. Is Post University, (PU, for those who are into abbreviations) even an accredited school? is it under ncaa rules? is it a 4 yr college?

I would think that if uconn needed to put him in a post grad program, considering the sketchiness of some of them, he would be at a recognized post grad school.

The mystery remains.

Maybe he's coming as a preferred walk-on and needs to live in state for a year to get in-state tuition?

Just seems like a very sketchy/odd situation. Had a ton of interest from big programs out west. Then ends up at tiny university in CT playing sprint football, whatever that is.

sprint football is like kids who are of a certain size or smaller only can play. i would rather do a 7-7 league then it but w/e. its only done by like 5 schools. i guess post does it now. i always knew it was a army/navy/ivy thing and nothing more but i guess its getting bigger or something. if coach p needed to get this kid somewhere for a year and then to uconn, this is kinda interesting that he chose this. his connections are always interesting, thats for sure.

I wonder when we will finally find out the real scoop. I thought about tweeting @ him to see whats up.

Post isn't a Junior College. Sometimes kids just say things.

Post is DII for athletics.

Coach P has apparently been known to send recruits to JUCO such as Dean, so why not do the same with Boose if he was really ever a serious target?
