Tyler Lorenzen

Catching up with the old guys

Dan Orlovsky took a lot of heat for coming to UConn in 2000. The Huskies were a I-AA, and he was a high level quarterback recruit. If the object is to play in the NFL it might behoove a player to play at the highest level. What was he thinking? Orlovsky, a Shelton native, had faith [...]

In Today’s JI

Notebook on Monday’s media day festivities in Storrs. Donald Brown coming back, news and other notes. I have a couple of more things in the works, so I will talk to you all soon.

Thursday no news teleconference

Wow. Missed the call because of computer issues, should I even write anything? It’s comical. True story. I was emailed a replay of the conference call because I missed it. The link I was sent was a Pre-Syracuse call in the subject line. I clicked on it and listened for five minutes and took notes [...]

Quarterback shuffle

One and only update today unless there is major breaking news. I am a news guy at heart, and the excitement of elections is too much for me to ignore. First off, who is going to be the QB for the Huskies? If you take Randy Edsall’s words, Cody Endres, Tyler Lorenzen and Zach Frazer [...]

Wednesday off week

What a refreshing change today. Just the usual beat writers were up on campus and we were actually able to spend time with some of the players, not the usual 5-10 minute gang interviews. I talked with Rob Lunn, Zach Frazer, Donnie Brown and Tyler Lorenzen about 20 minutes each way. You can get conversational, [...]

Late to the party

Tyler Lorenzen out 6-8 weeks. No surprise. I think he could return for the bowl game, especially if it’s after Christmas. The later the better. 8 weeks would take the Huskies to Dec.6 against Pittsburgh. I can’t imagine him playing for the rest of the regular season. But, with 3 weeks of practice for a [...]

In Today’s JI

Tuesday presser story on Jasper Howard and a note on Tyler “Tebow” Lorenzen. Of note, I will be on NFL Network’s College Football Now today. We’ll see how it goes. I hate giving predictions, I better come up with one real quick. Edit late: The great Santini has me on video. I can’t bring myself [...]

Quick hits

Open practice today and there was no Tyler Lorenzen and D.J. Hernandez (hmm, is this a coincidence? Maybe Tyler is Boomer Esiason and Hernandez, Chris Collinsworth. Just maybe?). Randy Edsall wanted to see some of the other guys and I thought Zach Frazer, Cody Endres and Casey Turner each had their moments. Endres is getting [...]

In today’s JI

Randy Edsall went after guard Zach Hurd pretty hard. No one was spared. If Hurd and company are feeling down let me give a word of advice: Don’t be worried when the coach yells at you. Be worried when he doesn’t yell at you. That means your not an option to play. My take on [...]

Big East Media Day

Greetings from Newport. Big East Media Day went without a hitch, though when I got back to my hotel room the Internet was down. The only shock for me on Tuesday was that UConn was picked to finish sixth in the conference. I know the sentiment amongst college football’s elite is that the Huskies were [...]
