With the in-home visits complete, he's ready to begin taking official visits. http://connecticut.scout.com/2/904053.html Evan Daniels http://connecticut.scout.com/2/904053.html Tue, 29 Sep 2009 13:39:00 GMT 1 342 Connecticut connecticut UConn wide receiver Michael Smith comes from about as far away from Connecticut as you can, Houston, Texas, but that hasn’t hindered him from making himself at home at Rentschler field. Smith, one of just two true freshmen to see playing time for the Huskies last season, was dominant in his performance over Rhode Island; tallying eight catches for 82 yards. http://connecticut.scout.com/2/903400.html Russell Blair http://connecticut.scout.com/2/903400.html Sun, 27 Sep 2009 16:35:00 GMT 0 342 Connecticut connecticut When head coach Randy Edsall came to UConn in the fall of 1998 he had no idea he’d be sticking around for 11 years. With Saturday’s game under his belt Edsall will become UConn’s longest tenured football coach, passing J.O. Christian with 122 games at the helm of the Huskies. Edsall’s 60 wins are just six shy of the program record and his 11 years at UConn are tied for ninth longest in the FBS. http://connecticut.scout.com/2/903009.html Russell Blair http://connecticut.scout.com/2/903009.html Sat, 26 Sep 2009 04:31:00 GMT 0 342 Connecticut connecticut In this weeks edition of the notebook we break down Harrison Barnes' recruitment, take an inside look at Shabazz Muhammad and admire Darrin Horn's terrific recruiting haul at South Carolina. http://connecticut.scout.com/2/902888.html Evan Daniels http://connecticut.scout.com/2/902888.html Fri, 25 Sep 2009 17:23:00 GMT 1 342 Connecticut connecticut Jeremy Lamb won't take any more visits.

This wasn’t the time for chew people out. This was a time to cheer people up. Football seasons can be fragile and turn on a dime. In the fourth quarter of the Huskies’ game against North Carolina, it turned badly in a big way. http://connecticut.scout.com/2/898504.html John Silver http://connecticut.scout.com/2/898504.html Sun, 13 Sep 2009 15:24:00 GMT 0 342 Connecticut connecticut The last time the UConn football team played North Carolina it was a nightmare. Zach Frazer was making his first career start and had three interceptions, including one for a touchdown. The Huskies also committed 11 penalties. That wasn’t the worst of it. North Carolina linebacker Bruce Carter blocked three kicks and the Huskies went on to a demoralizing 38-12 loss. http://connecticut.scout.com/2/898027.html John F. Silver http://connecticut.scout.com/2/898027.html Fri, 11 Sep 2009 23:56:00 GMT 0 342 Connecticut connecticut STORRS – It has been a long wait for Zach Frazer. The junior quarterback from Mechanicsburg, Pa. was one of the most heralded quarterback recruits in the country coming out of high school and spent one season at Notre Dame. He transferred to UConn after a season in South Bend sitting out a season and sat out another year as an understudy a year ago to Tyler Lorenzen. http://connecticut.scout.com/2/894292.html John Silver http://connecticut.scout.com/2/894292.html Wed, 02 Sep 2009 03:35:00 GMT 1 342 Connecticut connecticut We're a little old school over at Scout.com.

That is perhaps the biggest adjustment the sophomore defensive tackle had to make when he moved to the interior of the line. http://connecticut.scout.com/2/892675.html John Silver http://connecticut.scout.com/2/892675.html Fri, 28 Aug 2009 04:16:00 GMT 0 342 Connecticut connecticut Scout.com spent the summer traveling the camp and AAU circuit.
