Cincinnati football didn't have many holes to fill on the depth chart entering 2019 after returning 18 starters from last season's 11-win campaign.

Losing just 14 seniors from a team comprised of 72-percent underclassmen, including 35 true freshmen, didn't leave many spots to question or much room to work with for recruiting in the 2019 signing class.

Still, the Bearcats inked 16 players, some who should figure into game plans this season. Here's the UC freshmen to watch for:

Justin Harris and Ahmad Gardner: Perhaps the UC position with the biggest depth concerns entering training camp was cornerback, where junior Coby Bryant and senior Cam Jefferies are essentially the only two players with game experience.
