Football Recruits

[kyyote]

These are the recruits UTEP announced earlier this month.  It includes a quarterback and a kick returner are my thoughts.  Then there is the giant.  And wide receivers!  A tight end that looks like a receiver and not a blocking lineman.

A receiving TE would be a huge addition.

6-8, 390 lbs is a huge addition in a different way.  Oughta be able to QB sneak across the goal line behind him.  Or give him the ball a la William Perry?  Let them all hang off him as he slowly lumbers down the field?

We need more than a kick returner on special teams.  Is Aaron Price still the special teams coach?
