We had some information on this past weekend's Junior Day at Gillette. Glad to see the coaching staff is going after a bunch of good local athletes:

Like him. He looks like he spots the ball well and is pretty fluid in the pocket. Some of the highlights seemed more like highlights for his receivers than him. But gotta trust Molnars ability to gauge a QB. Glad to get someone over BC and UConn especially, but it is nice that PSU and Miami (Fla.) were also talking to him.

It could be that, or Molnar may be easier to relate to as a QB. Molnar was a QB coach for a very long time, up until when we hired him in fact. He has a track record of success with players in the position including Tony Pike at Cincy in 2009. Also, the run and gun style that we are likely to play puts a lot of spotlight on a QB which can help them get noticed and even drafted. (see Colt Brennan)

No idea what he is actually telling them though when he visits them. For all we know, he may really like the Patriots and want to play at Gillette.

Hey Crooks,

Any idea who these guys are on Twitter tweeting for UMass to offer them? I saw you tweeted at one of them.

EDIT: Deferring to Crooks on this one.

It seems like now we have a legit shot of landing some of the better players in the area. NE doesn't produce a ton of guys, but they do produce some very good ones. What we have is gillette. Most of these kids are pats fans, and may have played a championship game there. Once we start landing some of the better players in the area, the flood gates will open. The school is doing a great job of sched. Good games also. We can show these guys that they will be playing the best teams out there.
