Wednesday--February 6, 2013

UPDATE: 

Harry Plumer has highlights from UMass' signing day. Note that we still have three scholarships to give and there may be more transfers.

The UMass website has the 18 recruits so far with bios and video.

Every year I get more hits on LOI Day than I got on the day UMass played Appalachian State in the National Championship game.

This is a big class for UMass. The Minutemen had some FBS  level players when we moved to the MAC last year--- but not enough. Coach Molnar's freshmen were a good start. Kessan Messiah made an impact all by himself. Once he started, the long runs like Indiana made during our first home game became a lot rarer. The 2012 class was impressive given the short time Coach Molnar and staff had to contact the recruits.

2013's class will be another notch forward. Our biggest needs are offensive linemen, quarterback, linebackers and wide receivers.

I'll try to post some updates later. Keep in mind I'm 6 hours later here in Maui. I also have a crappy internet connection...
