With training camp opening this week, the Cincinnati Bearcats athletics website has updated the roster for the football team for the upcoming 2014 season. It’s always an exciting time around these parts as we inch closer and closer to seeing the team hit the field against a live opponent and compete for another conference championship.

This also gives us a glimpse into the new players on Cincinnati’s roster. We’ve been tracking them since National Signing Day and there’s always a feeling of relief when their names pop up on the official list, solidifying that they actually made it on campus and will be members of the team. It’s pretty much a foregone conclusion that if a recruit signs his letter of intent he’ll show up at school over the Summer but you never know. Aaron Harrises do happen.

You can peruse the fully updated official roster on the Go Bearcats site but here’s a list of the newbies you should be aware of.
