The Future

[HExus]

While I think this UC team is being over rated right now, its nice to see them playing well enough to get some national respect. Its been awhile. I'm not sure they are really deserving of a top 25 spot just yet, but 2 years ago you would be lying if you saw this turn around happening so fast.

So going forward, a few points and questions:

How long can the Bearcats keep Fickell?

Being that around 70% of the team is underclassmen, do they start next year in the top 25?

Can UC beat OSU next September, and if so how big of a recruiting win would that be for the team?

If UC wins out next year with OSU on the slate, can a group of 5 team finally make the playoffs?

hmmmm

A few things to think on since no one else is posting anything.

1) I think for a while. But you never know. And he's only had 1 good season so far and it's far from over...

2) No, they will not start in the Top 25. I hope I'm wrong, but I don't think I will be

3) Can they? Sure. Will they? highly unlikely. It would be an enormous win for the program.

4) If UC wins out next year, beating OSU....I think they would have a 10% chance at making the CFP.

I think coach is loyal to OHIO, with his kids in school and living close to Cincinnati he will be at UC for a while. Kelly did say in year one that his dream job would be ND and sure enough we know the rest of the story. Do not know how long he would have stayed. I did not think Jones was going to stay and that was after he promised not to leave. if Ohio State wanted Fickel for head coach he would be gone. Only my thoughts.
