Possible DC? I like guys that can talk about NFL experience because I imagine recruits drool over it.

Next stop, CINCINNATI! Welcome to the #Bearcats family!

BTW, this guy has two sets of twins. I didn't know that was possible. You Catholics must love him.

He went to St Francis Desales High School. Not a guarantee, but likely he is Catholic.

Are they streaming the 3:15 press conference anywhere? YouTube?

Here's a free link from Bearcat Report that has info on recruits and potential recruits and their thoughts on the Fickell hire. They will be updating it as they speak with recruits.

Nice looking list there.

There were no splashy names available. I think this is a solid hire. I like that he is from Ohio. He should like it here. Good luck to UC's new FB coach!

I have heard a lot of buzz about Marcus Freeman over the past week. I'm glad hes coming along for the ride.

The media is asking more questions today than they did in 4 years with Tubs.

I know a lot of the OSU fans wanted him to come back to OSU to take Fickell's place.

I'm impressed.

Well, talk about the polar opposite from TT. Fickell may not be an amazing smooth talker, but you cannot deny that guys passion. Good stuff.

This hire is exactly what UC needed.....passion, recruiting and somebody that really seems to want to be here.
