Wonder if this is in addition to Phillips or if this means he isn't gradumatating UConn in time

In quick reads, seems like he had potential but never got that regular role. Probably steps in as our best receiver. This is very good news if true. If Shakim Phillips also comes in and stays healthy, our offense could actually be really good. Little worried about the defense though.

If only we still had the Mad Scientist. I think Professor Doofenshmirtz may be available though.

He would be the 5th incoming transfer and at a position of enormous need. Wish we could find a DT or 2.

State-meet record in the 200 meters with a 21.1 as a sophomore in 2008 ... Then added 100-meter state record with a 10.39 in the 2009 meet to break a 20-year-old mark


From his Arizona bio. Those are insane times for a high schooler.

Is there anything concrete linking him to BC, or is it just speculation at this point.

Phillips, Swigert, combined with this kid would at least move us above comical levels

He's definitely left UA but I haven't found anything linking him to BC (although it certainly makes sense).

A UConn guy keeps telling me that Shakim will graduate this summer. He just started summer classes.

Haven't seen anything linking him to BC but 5th year route may be preferable to JUCO transfers, you get someone with experience at highest level and some proven academic competence, (at least they're willing to attend class). And a grad degree from BC may actually be appreciated by some of these guys.

Hayden Rettig is a Rutgirl now, probably much better fit for him (he better be ready to scramble, The Girls have a killer BIG schedule.

Totally off topic but I saw Pitt was -9 on the road against us.

That's insane. Is Pitt even good? Lost their QB and Aaron Donald

flakes just rick rolled everyone.

And in his defense, flakes never said that he was coming to BC and even added the question mark in the title of the thread.
