steady, experienced UConn interior OL with size and reliability
Schafenacker was a 6-3, 284-pound redshirt senior offensive lineman at UConn, and his value came more from steadiness than flash: he played in eight games in the 2016 season after redshirting in 2013 and sitting out the 2014 and 2015 seasons, which points to a long development arc and a player who earned trust over time.[1][5] Recruiting services listed him as a solid interior line prospect, with 247Sports noting him as a 6-3, 290-pound guard from the 2013 class, while CBS Sports described him as UConn’s most highly rated commitment in that cycle.[3][9] If you want an OL built on experience, size, and program familiarity, he fits the classic dependable “glue guy” profile.[1][3]
