#UConn offered New Canaan (Conn.) LB/DE Zach Allen recruiting.scout.com/a.z?s=73&p=8&c…

List updated. 247 had him holding an offer but Rivals, ESPN and Scout didn't so I held off.

Guess you missed the caveat above...

If you know, can you break out the PP staff offers versus the BD staff offers. I was struggling past the first few and gave up chasing that rabbit. For example - I know Palazzolo was a previous regime offer and committed to BC before Christmas. I also know some of the DB were being chased by Coach Perkins but accurate "offer dates" are tough to find.

Coach Diaco will eventually get these kids but not yet. It's gonna take time for HCBD to undue 15 years of FHCRE and OMUTAHCPP around the state. If Diaco can manage to get a couple Lutrus type players from around the state that will be huge. A lot of people are watching the kid from New Canaan to see if he buys into Coach Diaco's vision.

A bit OT - but what does OMUTAHHCPP mean? It's a bit lengthy.

Old Musty Unintelligent Timid Asanine Horrible Head Coach Paul Pasqualoni

I didn't appreciate his coaching style and where he led this program but even I thought that was a little over the top....
