Next up for 2015:
Miami receiver commits to UConn

Frank Battle........WR....Miami, FLA (Belen Jesuit)....................................Frank Battle - HUDL VIDEO HIGHLIGHTS

additional (scouting) report: Miami-Dade Class of 2015 - Pre-Summer Top 50
38. Frank Battle, WR, 6-6, 180, Miami Belen Jesuit: Having height and athletic ability may not equate to being a great receiver, but having watched this impressive football talent the past six months, you have to be impressed at what he will be like when he adds weight and gets stronger. Has off the charts athletic ability.

I've seen Kevin Murphy at some camps and he's no way near 6'3, 6'2 might be generous.....
 
Thx Blade Runner :)

Looks like he doesn't go down on the initial contact. Not sure of the quality of the competition but he looks like a gamer.

The QB isn't bad either....
 
Welcome to the latest Husky commit and a much needed add for the OL:

+1, Bill as I said at the very top.....as with all CFB recruiting nationwide it remains fluid until Feb.
( unless the talked about early signing period happens in CFB)....So we shall see as it gets down to
crunch time....and with a few rumblings out there now. I'll be interested to see if Uconn adds a 4th
scholly QB or another CB.
 
Welcome to the next Husky......
