After the Register's Mike Pucci first reported on Thursday that Dobbs had committed to play at UConn, the Post's Sean Patrick Bowley confirmed it in an interview with Dobbs later on Thursday.
According to Bowley's story, UConn coach Paul Pasqualoni offered Dobbs a scholarship, and Dobbs responded in the affirmative on Thursday afternoon.
Dobbs must still attend Milford Academy in the fall after committing there, but he will sign his letter of intent to play at UConn in February and enroll at the school in January so he can participate in next year's spring practice, according to the report.
Tsopanides had been rumored to be headed to Iowa recently, and that turns out to be the truth. Dan Podheiser at the Register Citizen published a story on Thursday as well chronicling Tsopanides' last month, including his workout in Milford that caught the eye of Iowa offensive coordinator Ken O'Keefe.
Iowa flew Tsopanides to Iowa City on Tuesday and he accepted a full scholarship offer on Wednesday, according to the story. He will not attend Milford Academy and instead will head to Iowa at the beginning of August.
Congratulations to Dobbs and Tsopanides on the scholarships and best of luck this fall and in the future.
