UConn football seeks starting quarterback ahead of fall camp

UConn football is entering fall camp with an ongoing competition for the starting quarterback position. Coach Jason Candle has not made an official decision, citing the need for players to get adequate practice time. Kalieb Osborne, who previously played under Candle at Toledo, is viewed as a frontrunner. Also in contention is Jake Merklinger, a transfer from Tennessee who has shown promise in limited appearances. Additional candidates include returning players Tucker McDonald and freshman Bo Polston, both of whom are vying for significant playing time in the upcoming season.
