Welcome home Kashif!

 

[Guru13]

Great job by Mora hands down, hiring back a UConn Alum and someone who knew what it took to win.

 

[HuskyAlum012]

Lets go Kashif! Great pickup

Welcome home Kashif!

This absolutely needed to be in this thread! I was just about to post it myself.

Welcome home Kashif!

Just put that play on an endless in the WR room. Tell the WR's, if any of them make a better catch, they'll change the highlight reel to that.

Awesome hire!! WELCOME HOME.

 

[Skiblets]

Welcome home Kashif!

One of the greatest catches in our 1A history. Froze in Birmingham that day but well worth the trip. The only thing I hate about that clip is how the color commentator had no idea what his first name was. Kaleef? Cmon man! Welcome home Kashif!!

 

[Skiblets]

My favorite of his though was climbing the ladder in overtime against Notre Dame. He had hops!!!

 

[BugsyCT]

Good to see Husky alums return back to the program - welcome back Kashif!!

Dude is one of the all time greats for UConn. He knows his stuff and is going to be a huge asset for Mora and company. This is a nice pick up. I'm pumped to see him back.

Good hire by Mora IMO. Although Moore is still a bit green, he's managed to coach at a few stops already. A young guy who can relate to today's players, will be very effective in recruiting. The fact that he's from the Northeast and can sell playing for Uconn when it was a competitive program making moves is an added bonus.

Barthell had heavy NJ connections but was a bit more experienced. Kashif brings those NJ roots which is a place UConn has to do well in.

Won’t hurt recruiting in CT either:

 

[MilliniumPrince]

KASH MONEY!

 

[Huskyforlife]

Love it. Mora wouldn't replace Allen with Moore if he didn't know his stuff. Welcome home!

Welcome home Kash. While Birmingham was my fav memory on the field, I still see him running out onto the field with the #6 jersey.

Here’s hoping he can elevate wr play. Whoever ends up at center will need wideouts who can create separation off the line, find passing lanes and add YAC.

 

[ShakyTheMohel]

I remember his Dad was a pretty active...and good poster on here. Maybe he will be back.

Welcome home Kash!

I expect to see him at the tailgates, he's a good guy.

Running onto the field with Jasper's jersey was the first thing that I thought of when I saw this announcement along with the catch in Birmingham.

Hope this is a good move that works out because I was at the Bowl in 2021 for Cornell @ Yale and the Big Red's coaching made Diacos staff seem like Hall of Famers. Made that comment to an unknown guy in the restroom at halftime, turned out to be the Cornell AD. He's gone now, hopefully Kashif left because it was a sinking ship.

SC game catch was unreal reminded me Manningham catch against Pats

 

[businesslawyer]

My favorite was Kash and Brad Kanuch making 30 yard sprints to get in position to give Marcus Easley blocks that led to his long TD catch and run in Morgantown, putting us up in the 4th quarter in the game after Jazz Howard’s untimely death.

Welcome Home is the universal greeting shared by Vietnam Veterans to this day, even after 50+ years. It is a reflection of the camaraderie and shared values forged in miliary service. I see Jim Mora fostering this culture at UConn, bringing together members of the UConn family across generations, along with the recruitment of Connecticut high school athletes.

WELCOME HOME, Kashif.
