The coaches have said that Maalik Bomar will likely be at linebacker when Stewart is at DE. He has hit the weight room hard over the offseason gaining over 20 pounds and has impressed the staff.

So many of the better candidates have already appeared - San Diego State, Utah State, Western Kentucky, Kansas State. My money is on Oregon State at this point.

It's good to see so many folks out there interested in UC football. Wildcat6 is actually a Northwestern fan (their profile is up next) and he was indeed referring to Indiana.

Go Bearcats…..

Schiano doesn't even deserve to be on the same list as Pasqualoni until he schedules some tough competition and then actually beats them. You might have to look past the last couple years if you're really going to compare coaches since 1990. Pasqualoni should be on top of your little list here.

With all due respect to Coach Kelly, who did a lot of heavy lifting in raising the profile of the Bearcats in the city, state and nationally, Coach Jones has really put forth the effort to raise the profile and make the program his own. Now all he has to do is keep winning ;) 2) i doubt you'll find too many Bearcats fans wasting their time trying to make the case. For some reason, despite a track record, however recent, of success the Bearcats can't seem to shake the perception, nationally, that they are not a top 25 team. Hell, this guy doesn't even consider the Bearcats a top 40 team. Understanding that every team undergoes some turnover, my question is "How many consecutive top 25 finishes does a team need to have before it starts to garner consideration for a preseason top 40 ranking?" 1) i can’t think of a Bearcat fan who isn’t pleased with Coach Jones to date.

The offensive potential is ridiculous. The defense, if only servicable, will make the team a solid Big East contender. UC should find its way to 9-3 on the year.

The man is as intense as he is loyal to his alma mater...which is to say, off the charts. @chaddogg – I love that Fitz story.

But I'd remind everyone that these games are won on the field, not on paper. So while Vandy went 2-10 last year and has a new emergency coach, they went to the Music City Bowl two years ago and beat a Boston College team that had something like an 8-game bowl winning streak. A little history lesson for younger 'Cats fans. Coming off the Rose Bowl appearance in the 1995 season, the 'Cats went down to Winston-Salem, NC to open 1996 against lightly-regarded Wake Forest. I remember all the touristy North Carolina travel packages offered to NU alums in anticipation of a road sweep at Wake and Duke. The result: a 28-27 defeat at the hands of the Deacs. Different era, different coach, true enough, but I've seen these situations bite the 'Cats enough over the years that I've learned never to take any game for granted. @sasser – Looking at the schedule, at Indiana looks like a potential “trap game” for the ‘Cats.
