With strength and conditioning already underway for existing players, the University of Cincinnati football staff will host several Class A rookies this weekend on campus. Major colleges usually host these weekends to show off their facilities and give players a taste of the college environment.
Players will also be invited to attend a Sunday 1pm Bearcat Basketball Report with the Memphis Tigers. While this game is still an American Athletic Conference contest, the players being recruited will be sold worth of Big 12 football. Cincinnati officially joins the Big 12 on July 1 and they are all awaiting the announcement of the conference schedule for next season.
