Mike Traini of "Fight Massachusetts" has a post on two OV's this weekend.
Matt Smith (good name) a 6-5 245 pound TE from Duke/Needham MA will visit. I blogged about Smith back on February 22nd.

Smith has Power Five size and could make the TE position into a significant cog in the revised UMass offense. The last three years the Minutemen have had to run against eight or nine in the box. An effective TE would really help UMass run the ball as the defense would have to assign a defensive player to him rather than just crowd the line of scrimmage.
The Second OV is Ted Kushi a 6-7 310 pound OL from LIU. I blogged about Kushi back on March 17th.

Kushi could study at my old school, the Isenberg School of Business, as well as potentially starting for two years on the offense line. He could have an exciting mix of education and playing against Power Five Auburn and Penn State (2023) as well as Missouri, Mississippi State and national champion Georgia in 2024. If he has NFL dreams, that would be a pretty good resume.
