Guys, I talked to one of the Bearcats' most recent offers, Phillips (Ill.) 2019 wide receiver Fabian McCray. Cincinnati made him an offer this afternoon.

The Bearcats are offer No. 3, following Toledo and Western Michigan. But McCray has interests that go back further, as he camped at UC this summer. And though he talked to assistant coach Joker Phillips mostly at the camp, it's been offensive coordinator Mike Denbrock that McCray has talked to since then and it was Denbrock who visited McCray's school today and made the offer.
McCray said he was very surprised by the offer from UC. He also told me, "I think it’s a great school and a great place to go for academics and sports."
As far as visits, McCray said he's been to games at Northwestern, Illinois and Toledo. The Wildcats invited him to a bowl practice, but that hasn't been set. And I think it would mean something if either of the two homestate schools offered. But McCray also likes Toledo a lot. He went to the Akron game about a month ago and said he likes the Rockets' offense, how they get the receivers involved.
No visits set right now. But unprompted, McCray told me, "I’m looking to get back to Cincinnati, but I don’t know when"
Full story coming.
