HE carries 285 very well. He can certainly bulk up and strengthen quite a bit from my eye.

No doubt - I guess they are of the mindset that it doesn't hurt to offer.

Gram used to tell us that "You are the company you keep"?

I like that approach. The kids themselves follow this stuff, and seeing UConn on the offer list along with Alabama and Michigan tends to remind them that we play at this level (even if we don't really recruit at this level). Some kid may really like New England and hate the heat, who knows?

 

[ktuck911]

Skyline in Dallas TX has always been a pipeline for D1 college football players.. FINALLY, we woke up and are at least publically (kinda) offering kids there....

I thought Connecticut and the surrounding states had no recruits that Big Ten programs would be interested in?!?!?!

He's just making the rounds of states soon to be a part of the B1G, it's all good.

I'm so glad we didn't hire that guy.

Meaning an offer could be forthcoming? Or reaching to even extend him an offer meaning we have no shot?

 

[Wonkster]

... Some kid may really like New England and hate the heat, who knows?

I'd like to point out that Geno's current point guard is the FIRST Texas-based player he has ever landed. She gave Shabazz fits during the preseason mixed team game and is a sure-fire All-American this upcoming season.

What was her thinking? -

"I've spent my whole life in Texas. I'd like to see the rest of the country."

Could have swung by Suffield but he was here trying to poach J Miller from PSU:

“@Legacy_IWBG: #GreatnessSustained athlete Jarvis Miller @Jarvis_9 was offered by Michigan State today!”

“@GregPickel: Conn. S Jarvis Miller (@Jarvis_9) is firm to #PennState despite MSU offer following good performance at NJ NFTC ($)”
