The Huskies may have found their starting quarterback for the 2026 season and beyond. Freshmen signal caller Kalieb Osborne has officially committed to transfer from Toledo to UConn.
Osborne follows new Huskies head coach Jason Candle, who previously coached Osborne at Toledo and played a pivotal role in his initial recruitment.
The transfer portal officially opened on Friday and already, new UConn Coach Jason Candle is dipping into his Toledo past to fortify the UConn roster which has been hit hard by the transfer portal and graduation.
UConn head football coach Jason Candle first staff is set. The new-look staff features a blend of veteran coordinators from Power Four programs and a significant contingent of coaches with proven championship pedigree from Candle’s previous tenure at Toledo.
As the transfer window opens, UConn Football finds itself at a crossroads. Following the departure of Jim Mora to Colorado State in November, the program has pivoted to new head coach in Jason Candle.
The Jason Candle era at UConn is off to a good start in recruiting after the new coach landed his first cornerstone recruit, securing a pivotal commitment from three-star quarterback Bo Polston.
UConn Athletic Director David Benedict has reportedly found his man. According to FootballScoop and On3’s Pete Nakos, the Huskies are expected to hire Toledo Coach, Jason Candle.
