UConn football’s secondary was bad last year. Really bad. The Huskies ranked 121st in Passing S&P+ out of 128 teams and lost a handful of seniors.
On the bright side, two of the seniors — Jamar Summers and Tre Bell — were both part of the reason UConn was so porous against the pass. While they are replaced by players without much experience, those young guys should theoretically improve as they get more snaps.
Herring-Wilson played in eight games but saw action in just three on defense. However, he’s the only cornerback listed on the depth chart with any experience at all, as the other three are all true freshmen.
