On National Signing Day, UConn played the recruiting game down to the wire and flipped QB Marvin Washington from UCF. A native of Orlando, Washington de-committed from UCF in late January.
Listed at 6-foot-1, 184 pounds, Washington fits the profile of a dual-threat quarterback that Rhett Lashlee is looking for. He is rated as a 2-star prospect by Rivals and Scout, and a 3-star prospect by 247sports.
He had interest from a host of schools including Florida Atlantic, Bowling Green, Eastern Kentucky, Kent State, Southern Miss, Toledo, Troy and Utah State along with some other FBS and FCS schools.
