Talking with the Voice of the Bearcats: Dan Hoard
Not sure how Scott secured time with THE Dan Hoard but he certainly didn’t waste it. A great interview here with the guy that gives me chills everytime he yells “Touchdoooown, BEAAAARCATS!”
Recruiting
First BCS offer for Washington
It’s still early but, as we learned this coaching staff never sleeps when it comes to recruiting. Recently they offered Orlando defensive end Devin Washington. It appears like he’s getting interest from quite a few BCS programs and you can never hate having a kid with a 4.8 GPA enrolled at your school.
