on uconnhuskies. com.
I will get into new walk-ons, and weights and positions when I start a position by position review of the roster (which, now that this is up, I will get started on). But, a number of players with remaining eligibility are no longer on the roster, including four scholarship players:
1. Lopes, the backup DB whom we saw on specials, would have been a RS Jr. but is not listed.
2. Matt Edwards, the backup LB who we never saw on the field or talked about, would have been a RS Jr. but is not listed.
3. Jerome Williams, who ended last year as the 4th LB when he recovered from injury, and would have been a RS Senior, is not listed.
4. Corey Manning, who played a lot last year (especially after Delahunt got hurt), and would have been a RS Sr., is not listed. This surprises me a lot, as given that Delahunt hurt his knee late in the season I'd be surprised if he plays for UConn again, notwithstanding that he is listed on the spring roster.
We also lost two walk-ons worth mentioning: Maher, the 'Nova transfer, and McLaughlin, whom I thought might have been Ruben Frank's back-up at FB next year.
By the way -- are we really getting better information out of the program with the control-freak in college park? Normally, someone told us when scholarship players left, rather than having to comb through rosters.
