Some notes:
* RsFR LB Connor Freeform out for the year w/ leg injury
* Jay Rose comments... nothing new...From HC BD: "Jay has to live Jay's life...I wish
him the best. I wish his family the best. I will be rooting for him.”."
* Quayvon Skanes and LS Nick Zecchino are most ready to play as true frosh.
* "Q" has a unique skill set " Q is an electric guy with the ball "
* UConn's long snapper will be FR Nick Zecchino...backup is CB Jamar Summers.
* Still just catch the ball philosophy on PR's...can save 10-15 yd loss if the ball doesn't
take a bounce... "If Brian( Lemelle) or Q can return for TD great, but our mentality is different "
* RsFR CB John Robinson will play, good upside, needs reps
* Talked up TE Chris Lee..solidly in the mix and at 6-7/275lbs he's mismatch
for opposing LB's..also mentioned him improving core strength just like Alex Bloom

* From Aman @ the Uconn Blog: Potential Breakout Players For UConn FB
* Wrap up from Jim Fuller and Matt Walsh story
* Tweets from @MattSchonvisky....and Matt Peart Story
