Its fitting that we will take a look at Ross Trail’s first full season as a Cincinnati Bearcat during the week of National Signing Day. Trail was a major recruiting coup for the Tommy Tuberville era. A four-star recruit by ESPN, he was named the No. 6 prospect out of his home state of Arkansas and the No. 21 quarterback in his class.
Trail impressed during last year’s spring game and entered this season No. 2 on the depth chart behind Hayden Moore, leapfrogging former starter Gunner Kiel in the process. After a slow start and some injury concerns from Moore, it wasn’t long before Trail got his shot at the big time.
