Kevin Mensah, Connecticut, Player News
|
Running back Kevin Mensah, the fourth-leading rusher in UConn history, has entered his name in the NCAA transfer portal. Mensah had back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons in 2018-19, but saw his role diminish as a senior as freshman Nate Carter took over as the Huskies primary ball-carrier. While he still has a year of eligibility left due to the COVID-19 season, Mensah's departure was expected. He was honored on Senior Day last month against Houston, the final game of the Huskies 1-11 season. The 5-foot-9, 20 2-pound Mensah finished his UConn career with 2,933 rushing yards, ranking behind Donald Brown (3,800), Terry Caulley (3,187) and Jordan Todman (3,179). - CT Post

UConn running back Kevin Mensah isn't quite sure what his career rushing numbers are or how they might stack up when his been around forever college football career ends in about four months. Which is probably healthy, because Mensah's body of work throu gh four years and three seasons, which leaves him in line to become one of the program's all-time leaders, won't necessarily help him remain the Huskies' top ball carrier when the team resumes competition Aug. 28 at Fresno State and beyond. "He can't get complacent and can't rest on his past accomplishments to think he's got the job won," coach Randy Edsall said at the Huskies' media day event last month. "But he's been productive. I think the challenge to Kevin is taking his game to another level. … He's maturing, and he needs to continue to mature. I'll just be honest. He hasn't developed as the type of leader that I would expect (from) a guy in his situation. Gotten better, but still has a ways to go."Mensah, a fifth-year senior, will have to prove himself again on a team with options it has not had the luxury of drawing from since his 2017 arrival, which coincided with the return of Edsall. Rob Burns, a graduate transfer from the University of Miami, and Nate Carter, a freshman from Roche ster, N.Y., are Mensah's main backfield competition. Edsall wants Mensah to work a little more efficiently and talk a little less. - CT Post

UConn has agreed to a multi-year television deal that will put most of its home football games on CBS Sports Network, the school announced Monday. The university did not disclose the financial details of the deal between CBS and Learfield IMG College, wh ich holds UConn’s athletics multimedia rights, but said it is worth seven figures over four years. Under the contract, the network plans to televise four UConn home games in 2020 (Indiana, Liberty, Middle Tennessee and Army) and all home games from 202 1-2023. This will be the Huskies' first season as a football independent after leaving the American Athletic Conference. Most of UConn's sports teams will be playing in the Big East, which signed a 12-year, $500 million media deal with Fox in 2013. - AP College Football
