Tim Boyle Transferring from UConn

4

After three years at UConn, starting games in every season, Tim Boyle has been granted his release from the UConn Football program and will be finishing his college career elsewhere.

With sophomore Bryant Shirreffs entrenched as the starter, there wasn't much opportunity for Boyle in Storrs. He showed a lot of character in accepting the backup role and had a big part in getting UConn to bowl eligibility in the win over Houston.

Boyle never really had ideal circumstances to succeed, with any of the three coaches he played for. I hope he finds a suitable opportunity to start somewhere.
