Two transfers announced their commitment to Jim Mora and UConn football on Saturday: a wide receiver from FCS Delaware and a tight end from TCU.
Brett Buckman joins UConn from Delaware, choosing the Huskies over reported offers from James Madison, Western Kentucky, Buffalo, Troy, New Mexico, Ohio, and Eastern Michigan, and has two years of eligibility remaining. He’s 6-foot-1, 197 pounds, and last year he caught 39 passes for 470 yards with one touchdown. After UConn lost Keelan Marion and Aaron Turner, to ECU and Cincinnati, respectively, Buckman has a chance to be an immediate contributor for new wide receivers coach Kashif Moore.
