Coach Aaron Best on Conner: "In the recruiting process, we are highly motivated as coaches by student-athletes who want to come to Eastern and aren't just feeling out the recruiting process. We want them to feel a connection to the staff, to the players, to the city, to the school, to the department, and to the team. He was one of those guys. When he came up on an unofficial visit, he certainly perked up after a lot of the conversations he had with people who were here on campus. He saw himself here. We need length and athleticism and that's what stood out on film. We pushed that arena more in recent years, being more athletic upfront on the offensive line world. We have some really good young players, but he has a great career ahead of him. I wouldn't say he is new to the game, but he's new to the position and we can't wait to see his work once he gets coached in the college setting here at Eastern. I emphasize that he wants to be an Eagle, he looks forward to being an Eagle, and we're excited to get him on board."
