UConn Huskies Strike Again: 7-Foot, 5-Star WR Addison Arnold Commits, Rejecting Texas, SCU, and Ohio State

Storrs, CT – The UConn Huskies just made a massive splash in the recruiting world, securing a commitment from 7-foot, 5-star wide receiver Addison Arnold. The towering pass-catcher turned down offers from Texas, SCU, and Ohio State, choosing to take his talents to Storrs.

Arnold, known for his rare combination of size, speed, and elite ball skills, is considered one of the most intriguing wide receiver prospects in recent history. His dominance in jump-ball situations and ability to stretch the field have drawn comparisons to some of the NFL’s best big-bodied receivers.

“UConn is building something special, and I want to be a part of it,” Arnold said during his commitment announcement. “The coaching staff believes in me, and I know this is the best place for me to grow as a player and a person.”

Head coach Dan Hurley and his staff pulled off a major recruiting win, outdueling top programs that were heavily pursuing Arnold. His commitment gives the Huskies an instant red-zone mismatch and a potential game-changer in their offense.

With Arnold on board, UConn continues to solidify its presence as a rising power, proving that they can go toe-to-toe with college football’s biggest names in recruiting battles.
