The Minuteman Command has an interview with English during his Junior Day visit to UMass.
Hudl.com has video highlights.
UMass needs offensive linemen. English could play in front of friends and family in Amherst and join the Pop Warner and Joe Griffin talent pipeline with the Minutemen.
If you missed it, all the original starting offensive linemen from 2025 left/graduated. LT Luke Painton, LG Sullivan Weidman, C Benjamin Roy, RG Mao Glynn and RT Ryan Mosesso all are gone.
The offensive line was not a strong point last year. I went to most of the games and watched 'em all on DVR. I can't think of a game where we dominated the line of scrimmage. I've blogged about our nearly last in FBS rushing totals.
For the season, UMass went 54-172 31% on third downs. The Minutemen went 6-26 on fourth downs 23%. Those are really bad numbers. A stop on fourth down is a turnover. Stops on 3rd downs are effectively turnovers. A first down at the end of the game would have won the Bryant and Buffalo contests. A lot of that was due to offensive line play.
Brock Taylor started some games later in the season. Jaxon King, Payton Miller and Zachary Franks are probably the top returning offensive linemen.
UMass added Aitor Unionabarrenechea from Colorado State. Greg Knox from McNeese State, and Greg Klingensmith from William & Mary. All three will probably start.
Still, I think this leaves the O-line room pretty thin. I would grade the potential improvement here as a "C" (primarily because of numbers).
If I was coach and I had enough NIL money for two additional players, I'd spend it on two offensive linemen. If I had NIL for three, I'd spend it on three offensive linemen.

This article covers his offer from Northwestern.
Wallace has Power Four offers from Cincinnati, Kansas State, Northwestern and Purdue. Miami (Ohio), Northern Illinois, Toledo and Western Michigan have offered from the MAC. UMass needs offensive linemen and Wallace could be in the mix early in Amherst.
UMass formerly announces hiring Max Warner as offensive coordinator.
Hopefully, Warner will have a lot more offensive talent to work with this year. Former Minuteman OC Mike Bajakian directed the worst offense in college football, but was hired away by Power Four Michigan State, which leads to the conclusion the problem was talent, not coaching.
The Daily Collegian has a post on Warner's hiring.

This article covers his recruitment by Michigan State.
This article discusses his recruitment by Power Four teams.
Spillers has fifteen offers including Illinois, Maryland, Michigan, Michigan State and more. Bowling Green, Toledo, Miami (Ohio) and Western Michigan have offered from the MAC. Spillers is a versatile athlete and he would have a chance to play early in Amherst.
Like every other stat for 2025 receiving totals were dismal. UMass lost T.Y. Harding for the season early and that made a big dent in playmaking. Harding accounted for 719 total yards in 2024 (receiving 334, punt returns 109 and kickoff returns 276).
Jacquon Gibson was the only WR threat in 2025. Gibson went 63-613 9.8 yards/catch. But he had ZERO TD's. Of UMass' 8 receiving TD's, four were caught by TE's. Gibson left in the transfer portal and ended up with Virginia.
I think UMass made a big signing with Joe Griffin Jr. He had a productive career with Boston College. I think he has the size and skills to to make an impact for the Minutemen.
The T.Y. Harding, Joe Griffin combo should give UMass an effective passing threat.
UMass also added DII Devin Matthews. He went 36-649 yards and 7 TD's in 2025. Matthews is 5-9 and probably will play the slot receiver.
The Minutemen also signed a talented freshman class with Drew Alsep, Tavian Dashell, David Moore and Kai Owens. I can see several of those players contributing in 2026. Wide receiver is one position a true freshman can play.
Owens is one of the highest-rated true freshmen ever to sign with UMass. If he gets in and is productive, I'd burn his redshirt (if he agrees) if needed.
I'm excited about the 2026 WR room and I think that room added the most talent on offense.
I'd give the 2026 WR additions a potential grade of "A".
Last year's rushing results for the Minutemen were horrifying. We finished #131 out of 134 in rushing offense.
Against Temple, (who finished 5-7 in 2025) we had 103 net yards rushing and 41 of those 103 came on one rush by Rocco Griffin (who had a good opening quarter against the Owls and then disappeared for the rest of the year).
Against a 3-8 FCS team Bryant, we rushed for 101 yards and 19 (one fifth) came on one play by Grant Jordan. One rushing first down at the end of the game would have won it for UMass.
Against Buffalo, the game we came the closest to winning, we rushed for 187 yards, but 90 of those yards came on one play by Brandon Hood. For the rest of the game we rushed 43 times for 97 yards.
In the last game of the season in the "Bottom Bowl" against Bowling Green, on our own field, UMass rushed 29 times for 69 net yards, 2.4 yards/rush.
Being unable to run the ball makes the QB look bad. If the defense can disregard the running game, they can pin their ears back and rush the passer, which they did with abandon in 2025.
Fixing the run game will make a major impact on UMass' chances in 2026.
UMass added Jordan Washington. He has good size and had a decent season for the Racers in 2025.
The Minutemen also added Justin Williams-Thomas a transfer from Cal/Marshall. Williams-Thomas was a highly rated RB out of HS, but so far has been unable to generate much playing time in college.
I really like true freshman recruit TK Davis. I'm also high on true freshman Justin Lewis.
A freshman can play in four games without burning their redshirt. If I were the UMass coach, I'd get Davis and Lewis reps in eight games this year. We need production.
I'd give the potential upgrade here as a B minus. We did not sign an instant All-MAC running back , but the expectation is UMass will move up from awful. I think Davis and Lewis have talent to move the meter even further in future years.

This article covers his recruiting by Michigan.
This article writes about his offer from Michigan State.
Willis has over 20 offers including Wisconsin, Michigan, Michigan State, Cincinnati and more. Bowling Green, Miami (Ohio), Toledo, Western Michigan and Kent State have offered from the MAC. Willis would have the opportunity to start early in Amherst and also get an East Coast education.
I got sucked in by the excitement of the transfer portal and resumed Sunday blogging. Now that it seems the bulk of the transfers have arrived, I'm going back to taking Sundays off until Fall camp starts.
Everybody stay warm and I'll see you tomorrow!
Except for the the Andrew Ford and Blake Frohapfel era during Coach Whipple's second stint at UMass, the Minutemen have not had effective quarterbacks during our FBS era.
Last year AJ Hairston had a 89.2 EFF. Grant Jordan had a 108.1 EFF. Brandon Rose had a EFF of 96.5.
UMass' collective 2025 quarterback opponents had a EFF of 169.0.
Some of the quarterbacks problems were due to a total lack of a running game and very poor pass blocking, but still..
Jordan was clearly the best QB. He scored 33% of UMass' rushing TD's and did make some plays (usually running for his life from the opponents pass rush).
All three left in the transfer portal. Jordan signed with Power Four Oklahoma State. AJ Hairston signed with FCS Merrimack. So far, I could not find any news for Rose.
UMass added Pop Watson. On paper, he seems a big improvement. However, Watson was unable to break into the starting position at Virginia Tech. He appeared in 11 games and started two in three years with the Hokies. He needs to get out of the gate fast in 2026. UMass needs offensive production and Watson needs to provide it. He'll have the keys to the car starting the season, but if the UMass offense sputters (again), he could be pushed by RJ Johnson III. Last year Johnson had a QB EFF of 146.4 and threw for almost 2,600 yards.
The UMass QB room also adds true freshman Aedan McCarthy. I like his background and he should be a solid future starter. UMass also has Will Perry who, you will remember, engineered a nifty scoring drive against UConn two years ago.
So how'd we do?
I would rate the signings as a B+. Both Watson and RJ Johnson III have the potential to jump start the UMass offense. On paper, the quarterback room seems to have substantially more talent than last year. However, Watson's career as a backup at Virginia Tech and Johnson's lack of FBS time will mean we'll have to wait to September to see the results..

This article talks about his offer by Minnesota.
Mercer has 23 offers including a laundry list of Power Four teams such as Michigan, Wisconsin, BC, Texas A&M and more. UMass, Toledo and Western Michigan have offered from the MAC. Mercer would have the opportunity to play early and often in Amherst.

I subscribe to 247Sports, but I don't know if this link will be available to non-subscribers.
247Sports ranks UMass' transfer portal class as #2 in the MAC.
If you can't see it, the MAC transfer portal rankings are
Toledo had 14 three-star transfers. UMass had 12. Nobody else had more than nine.
247Sports has UMass #103 in FBS transfer portal ranking. The Power Four conference teams occupy (roughly) transfer portal slots 1-65. The Group-of-five teams, again roughly, compete for the slots 66-136, as they do for freshmen recruiting.
At #103 UMass in just into the top half of Group-of-Five teams.
Boston College is ranked #62, which sorta reflects their current status as the bottom of the ACC and near the bottom of the Power Four.
UConn is ranked #71, which is indicative of their 9-4 record and status as one of the top Group-of-Five teams..
We'll see how it all plays out in 2026!

This article covers his visit to Iowa State.
Florida Atlantic and UMass (his first FBS offer) have offered from Group-of-Five. Power four Arkansas, Minnesota, Iowa State, Northwestern and Wisconsin have also offered.

This article covers his recruitment by Arizona.
Jones has 23 offers including multiple offers by Power Four programs. LSU, Arkansas, Texas A&M, Kansas State and others have offered. UMass and several other Group-of-Five teams have also offered. He would play earlier with the Minutemen and would be a big signing.
The Minuteman Command has a post interviewing former Lawrence Central coach William Patterson about incoming transfer Jahman Harmon.
UMass was #133 out of 134 FBS in team pass defense efficiency in 2025. Anyone who wanted to pass against the Minuteman defense could do it. UMass gave up 29 passing TD's, which was the most in FBS.
Harmon could push TJ Magee for a starting CB position right away.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Williams-Thomas' Herd bio here.
This article features Williams-Thomas.
Williams-Thomas was a four-star recruit out of HS, He had multiple Power Four offers. So far, he has not been able to generate much playing time. The UMass RB room was the worst in the nation in 2025. Williams-Thomas should add depth and potential for this year.
The Minuteman Command has a post and interview with DE transfer Justin Krueger.
DE's who can rush the passer are in high demand. Kreuger has a chance to get some stats that would draw attention of a Power Four program. He'd also make a positive impact on UMass' results.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UConn's home 2026 schedule includes UMass.
The Huskies 2026 schedule is significantly more difficult than last year's. IMHO, another 9-4 season is unlikely.

Melvin was a high three-star recruit out of HS. Melvin had Power Four offers from BC, Pitt, West Virginia and Virginia Tech.
This article from 2024 talks about his commitment to UConn.
UMass continues to stockpile DL talent. Melvin was rated by 247Sports as a top-100 DL recruit nationally and a top-20 recruit from the state of Maryland. He has Power Four size and he should make an immediate difference in Amherst.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Minuteman Command has a post on DL transfer Kamarion Thomas.
Thomas was a 247Sports three-star player and ranked as a top-20 defensive player from NY out of HS.
UMass considerably strengthened the DL with transfer portal recruits with Zakar Morris, Zachary Betts, Justin Krueger, William and Andrew DePaepe along with Thomas. This is a strong group and should make an impact in 2026.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

UMass had a productive Saturday as the Minutemen reeled in six transfers.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UMass closed the deal with 6-4 210 pound WR Joseph Griffin Jr.
Griffin's Wisconsin bio here.
The Minuteman Command has a post on Griffin joining the Minutemen.
Griffin had a productive two years with BC but was unable to crack the starting rotation at Wisconsin. He could do his career (and UMass) a big favor by catching everything in sight in 2026. The Minutemen's long ball passing ability in 2025 was non-existent.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Washington's Racers bio here.
Washington went 12 GP 86-340 4.0 AVE 3 TD's 24 LONG as a RB. Also caught the ball out of the backfield 22-206 9.4 AVE 3 TD's 60 LONG. And he's big enough to help with pass blocking..
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Krueger's Tribe bio here.
Krueger had excellent stats in 2025. He went 12GP 20 UT 32 AT 52 TT 8 TFL (!) 2.0 SACKS and 5 QBH. Those are really good numbers for a down lineman. May he bring that kind of production to Amherst.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UMass also signed Glen Klingensmith a 6-5 300 OL from William & Mary.
His Tribe bio here.
This article from August of 2025 features Klingensmith.
Klinggensmith started all 12 games in 2025. He should be an instant starter for UMass.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joining the Minutemen is Devlin Matthews, a 5-9 185 pound WR from East Texas A&M.
Devlin's Lion's bio here.
Devlin went 11GP 30-649 18.0 AVD 7 TD's 59 LONG in 2025. He has the potential to add more firepower to UMass' passing attack.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rockets bio here.
Johnson was All-State in Georgia in HS. He's a capable QB who could insure the UMass offense does not come to a complete halt if Pop Watson gets nicked up.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The transfer portal closed yesterday. That's for players entering the portal.
For players already in the the portal:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UMass currently has 21 true freshmen recruits for 2026.
WE have have 18 (counting two players who entered the portal and re-signed with UMass) incoming transfers.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No updates in incoming transfers so far today.
IMHO, still need a RB, FB and an additional OL.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Minuteman Command has an interview with Springfield's Central HS head coach Bill Watson-----and father of Pop Watson.
Coach Watson relates UMass is making a pitch for Joseph Griffin late of Boston College/Wisconsin.
Griffin's Badgers bio here.
Griffin is a Springfield native and a former teammate of Pop Watson. UMass totally lacked a deep-threat WR last year. The season's longest completion was by TE Max Dowling. Griffin would be a great addition to the 2026 Minutemen.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One thing did go well in 2025..
AJ Hairston signs with Merrimack.
Still looking for a RB and a 240 pound FB..
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Passmore's UMass bio here.
In 2025, Passmore went 12 GP 2 UT 13 AT 15 TT.
D-linemen are the scarcest recruits. Passmore should help in the rebuilding of the Minuteman defensive front.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bournes UMass bio here.
In 2025, Bournes went 12 GP 28 UT 34 AT 62 TT 2 TFL and 1 FF. Keeping him is a strong positive for the Minuteman defense.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You know UMass football had a good day when number of commits names won't fit in Blogger's title block..
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jacksonville State bio here.
173 TT in his HS junior and senior year. Bendolph should be a solid addition the the middle of the UMass defense.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Greg Knox, a 6-6 305 pound OL transfer from McNeese State has joined the Minutemen.
McNeese bio here.
Rated as a three-star transfer by On3.com.
The Minuteman Command has an interview with Knox.
Knox should be in contention to start immediately. Run blocking and pass protection was a major problem last year. Knox could change that around.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UCF bio here.
At Brown, Reed was a team captain and nominated for a number of FCS awards. He should supply senior leadership and contend for a starting position.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jahmad Harmon, a 5-10 180 pound DB from Ball State/Kent State has transferred to UMass
Cardinals bio here.
Harmon should supply depth and talent to a UMass secondary that was next-to-last in team pass defense efficiency in 2025.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Zachary Betts, a 6-2 245 pound LB transfer from St. Francis has committed to UMass.
St. Francis bio here.
Betts has the size to play up close to the line of scrimmage. He should be an excellent addition to the Minuteman defense.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Randall King a 6-2 205 pound WR transfer from Campbell has joined the Minutemen.
Camels' bio here.
King was 2024 Phil Steele Freshman All-American. In 2025 he went 59-689 and 5 TD's. Last year an injury to one WR (TY Harding) put the UMass passing game into a dead stop. King should be an excellent target for Pop Watson to throw to.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Social media is reporting Andrew and William Depaepe defensive linemen from Indiana are transferring to UMass .
Andrew Depaepe was a four-star recruit out of HS.
 |
| William Depaepe |
Sports Illustrated has a story on the Depaepe brothers leaving Indiana.
Andrew Depaepe could the the highest rated recruit ever to play for the Minutemen. Both should be a huge addition to the UMass defensive front.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pop Watson, has committed to UMass.
The Minuteman Command has a post on Watson's commitment.
Sports Illustrated also has a story on Watson's joining UMass.
There is an old maxim that says "if you don't have a quarterback, you don't have an offense." Except for Whipple's four years, UMass has struggled to field a FBS-level quarterback. Watson has the skills to build an offense around. By himself, Watson can't do it, but with a running game, wide receivers and a better offensive line, he could lead UMass out of the wilderness.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Watson gets some help with the commit of Aiton Urionabarrenecha, a 6-5 320 OL transfer from Colorado State.
His Colorado State bio here.
Played 769 snaps for the Rams in 2025.
Urionabarrenecha should be the starting center in 2026. The Minuteman offensive line needs a big improvement over 2025 if we are to be more competitive this year.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Was a FCS Freshman All-American in 2023.
Iseah is a senior with 182 TT. He can play stand-up LB or one hand down. He should add a dimension to a UMass defense that needs more talent and experience.

Thomas has four years of eligibility. Last year I drove all the way to Ohio to watch the UMass-Kent State game. What I saw was the Golden Flashes, who are by no means Nebraska, run right up the "A" gap against the UMass defense. Thomas could be a fixture in the Minutemen DL for a number of years.
The Minuteman Command has a post on Stanley's signing.
Stanley's Garden City bio here
Hudl.com has video highlights.
Stanley has a chance to make an impact immediately. The UMass pass defense was awful in 2025. Opponents threw for 2,550 yards, 67.99% Completion AVE, 29 TD's and a 168.99 (!) EFF. Hope to see Stanley making BKUP's in 2026.

UMass has also offered Tyler Hughes ex-William & Mary. The Tribe has already scrubbed his bio.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
About 4,500 players are in the transfer portal.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Social media reports UMass has made multiple offers. So far, no signings announced.
UMass needs:
1. A dual-threat QB.
2. A FBS level RB.
3. Offensive line help.
4. Cornerbacks
5. Defensive line help.
6. Wide receivers.
UMass was dead last in total offense (by a significant margin) last year. That was the worst offense in Minuteman history.
The Minutemen were #131 in rushing offense and averaged 2.81 yards/carry. Only Charlotte in all of college football had less rushing TD's.
UMass was also dead last in passing efficiency. No defense could win with this offense. Improving the Minutemen offense to "average" would help a lot..
