Kevin Friend brings veteran stability to UConn’s offensive line
Friend is a proven, experienced **offensive tackle** for the Huskies, with **29 career starts** and a key role on a line that returns all five starters, making him a reliable anchor rather than a flashy stat-sheet player.[6] His value is in consistency, toughness, and familiarity with UConn’s system, traits that matter for protecting the quarterback and keeping the run game on schedule.[6] If you want an older, battle-tested blocker who helps raise the floor of an offensive front, Friend fits the profile.
