UConn football got some good news for the future on Thursday afternoon, as two interesting players announced their commitment to Jim Mora and the Huskies.
First came three-star quarterback Cole Welliver, a top-300 recruit according to ESPN and a top-rated recruit from the Dallas, Texas area. Then Clemens Schmidt, a tight end from Dresden, Germany, announced his commitment as well.
Rated a three-star recruit by both Rivals and 247, Welliver held offers from Arizona State, Washington State, and Colorado before committing to the Huskies.
Standing 6-foot-6, Welliver considers himself a pro-style quarterback and is ranked squarely in the top 50 in that position according to 247.
