Maybe that’s because Bennett’s career biography at Connecticut reads more like a medical chart than an annual review of an offensive tackle's progress. http://connecticut.scout.com/2/1214569.html 2047 Ken Davis http://connecticut.scout.com/2/1214569.html Fri, 24 Aug 2012 21:29:00 GMT 0 342 Connecticut connecticut Jimmy Bennett knows his time is coming. The 6-foot-8 tackle out of Alexandria, Va. was a sought after recruit that UConn desperately needed to reel in.

The 6-foot-8, 280-pound offensive lineman from West Potomac, Va., wasn’t sure how he felt about the campus or the coaches and had a long list of schools he still hadn’t seen, so there was no basis for comparison. Then he took another visit to College Park for the WVU game, and everything changed dramatically. http://maryland.scout.com/2/696338.html 2047 Jeff Ermann http://maryland.scout.com/2/696338.html Tue, 30 Oct 2007 23:30:00 GMT 1 174 Maryland maryland Alexandria, Va., product Jimmy Bennett and his West Potomac High School teammates are off to a 3-0 record this season and are about to begin district play, so the offensive lineman is focused on one thing, and that is helping his team go all the way.
