That's a tough one Aman, you have all the inside info. Seems like a long shot with a kid from TX, but on a wish list, I'd love to see this commit who the Huskies just offered. Uconn took plenty of height and size last year. He's a smaller APB, but has speed (4.38 40) and power (550 lb Squat).....seems like what Uconn needs a little more of, shifty breakaway speed in the backfield ( like Terry Caulley ) or the slot. Seems like a good student too with offers from the Military's and Yale...also saw a Minnesota offer plus interest from Boise State, Cal and Kansas.

Yeah some of the same photos and the HUDL link on both....Sounds like we need a good investigative reporter, unless he has a twin. LOL !

Here's a kid who just listed Uconn in his top 3 out of 17 FBS offers....as a 6-4/ 248 lb RB/DE there is plenty of competition though (Uconn, Alabama, Kentucky ) :

Orlando Sentinel: Daquan Newkirk drawing rave reviews

This kid Quayvon Skanes ? .... Rivals list him as a WR, see he lists Uconn in his top 3...whether RB or slot guy he looks to have some speed and does well in space
which is a need, also he seems to have value as a K/PR: Quayvon Skanes - Hudl

 

[aman kidwai]

Skanes visited UConn this weekend, we'll try to get in touch tomorrow to see how it went.
