The Worcester Telegram briefly mentions two UMass recruits here .

Maine's Jovan Belcher is training for the NFL.

Remember there were rumors that UMass OL coach Brian Picucci was leaving for Boston College?It turns out UNH's Sean Devine was the coach hired.

The CAA insider ranks UMass' recruiting class pretty low. Note that all of the CAA South teams received high rankings and all the CAA North received low.
