2016 Commit #4 - Quayvon Skanes (WR/S) Chicago Illinois

Diaco and staff will capitalize on the great win last night!!! There were something like 50 recruits at the game. Great game atmosphere, crowd, players and coaches jumping up and down, who doesn't want to be part of that?

Diaco on Q. Skanes: he's your inside slot/ punt kick returner, difference making hard to tackle, jet, he'll be an impact player on STs 1st

If he's going to return punts, I hope no redshirt is necessary. I also hope he's insured.

Posted this about skanes in the Recruiting 2016 thread, thought it should go here too.

HCBD just told Gresh that Q. Skanes had something like 40 scholarship offers, including virtually the entire B1G, most of the ACC , etc. But they built a relationship with he and his parents and were able to hold onto him. Welcome aboard Q!

He could be a steal in this class. Led his team to a State Championship playing out of position at the QB spot. Record breaking and historic season for his team and HS program. He reminds me a lot the kind of fan fare and notoriety that Aaron Garland got a year ago. Looks like a gamer and has a chance to really be something special at Uconn. Time will tell how quickly he can get onto the field, but I bet we see him sooner rather than later on special teams in the return game.
