Stan Cross brings ball-hawking DB upside to UConn
Stan Cross projects as a **physical, playmaking defensive back** who already showed takeaways and tackling production at Iowa Central, where he played in **11 games** as a freshman with **45 tackles, 2 interceptions, and a forced fumble** in the 2020 season[1]. His appeal is the combo scouts love: **instincts, urgency, and versatility** rather than just raw measurables[1]. With East Nashville and junior-college accolades on his résumé, he looks like a competitive, plug-in depth option who can help on special teams and in sub-packages if he translates his production to the FBS level[1].
