Dear Bearcat Fans,
School has started and the leaves are changing as summer turns into fall.
Bearcat Insider has been on hand to cover many of the hottest topics
surrounding the Bearcats athletic program since our last printing. Not
only has things changed around UC, but Bearcat Insider has seen some
changes as well. Our website BearcatInsider.com keeps growing as
more Bearcat fans have learned about us. Our partner, Scout.com is now
part of the largest internet/media company going in Fox Sports. With our
partnership the staff of Bearcat Insider expects many new things to
come. Some we've already seen. But in the end Bearcat fans will be the
winner in all of this. What have you missed?

We're very excited about printing another magazine. Our goal is to make
this the best printed source of the Bearcats around. Trust me when I tell
you many people inside and outside of the university have taken notice.
This issue of our growing magazine has many great stories for you.
Inside the staff has put together some great information with special
stories on the Bearcats Men's Soccer program. We also had the chance
to speak with new Men's Basketball Coach Andy Kennedy and his
newest player Ronald Allen.
As we always try to do, Tim Adams goes "Old School" with two former
Bearcat football players and lets you know how they are doing since
their playing days ended.
We also look at the Bearcats first official Big East game and go outside
the helmet with Butler Benton the Bearcats sophomore running back
who's coming off a shoulder injury from the spring. As always, football
recruiting is heating up and the Bearcats have received five verbal
commitments. We look at each of them and also give you some other
names to keep an eye out for.
We want to thank all of you who've made Bearcat Insider grow and hope
you keep enjoying our coverage of Bearcat athletics. As always, please
feel free to e-mail me with any questions or comments about this
magazine or our website.
Sincerely,

The 2005 season will be one of many first for the Bearcats football program. Leaving Conference USA, the Bearcats
take residence in their new conference the Big East. With this move many new and exciting things will happen in the
course of the first year.
The first “Big Thing” came on Saturday, October 8th as the Bearcats traveled up the Ohio River to Pittsburgh to battle the Pitt Panthers in the schools first match-up against a Big East foe. With both Pitt and UC sitting on rivers that
run together, University of Cincinnati Athletic Director Bob Goin found it the right time to kickoff a new rivalry game.
While it will take several years for players and fans to feel attached to this new rival, the hard hitting action the game
brought will help make it happen sooner then many expected.
HISTORY MADE: UC PLAYS FIRST BIG EAST GAME
Attending the game and watching were University of Cincinnati President Nancy Zimpher, Mr. Goin and several
members of the university athletic staff. A party was planned for UCAT members and alumni who had the chance to
gather inside a tent before the game to get ready.
As many fans will find during the next few seasons, the Bearcats have former players living in the areas of the new
conference and Coach Dantonio is using these games to bring them back into the Bearcats family. At Pitt, former
Bearcat and NFL player Dan Raines was honored by Coach Dantonio and took the field with the captains for the coin
flip. Rains was excited about this chance and also by having the opportunity of getting with several former teammates
to talk about old times.
Once inside fans enjoyed the large video board at Heinz Field. The action on the field didn’t go the Bearcats way in
this one. As the young Bearcats keep learning the ropes. But the team isn’t that far behind and Coach Dantonio
expects his troops to start playing like veterans in upcoming Big East games.
How will the Bearcats fair in the coming weeks? It’s hard to say, but fans will find great effort from these young cats
and should enjoy the chance to watch Big East foes Connecticut, Louisville and West Virginia take the new turf at
Nippert Stadium.
For those who really love Bearcats football there are also trips to Syracuse, South Florida and Rutgers yet to come.
Each of these games will see the Bearcats enter as underdogs, but I’ve got a feeling a few more victories are in the cards
being held by Coach Dantonio and his staff.
While the weatherman could have given fans a better day, Bearcat fans enjoyed the chance of getting together outside
of the stadium and talking with fellow Bearcats and the many Pitt fans tailgating.
While the new trophy will sit in the halls of the Panthers this year, look for the Bearcats to fight to see it return to its
rightful home next season when the Panthers make their first trip into Nippert Stadium.
