Welcome to this week's installment of "Weekly Whispers," our weekly series in which we keep Bearcat Nation updated on the latest recruiting news for the Cincinnati Bearcats. Lets see what happened this week on the recruiting trail.
Ponder verbals to UC
Last Wednesday, coming after the latest "Weekly Whispers" piece, Cincinnati reeled in a commitment from '16 DL Elijah Ponder of South Cobb (GA). The 6'3, 255-pounder chose the Bearcats over offers from Air Force, Georgia State, Navy, Ohio, and many more. Always keeping tabs on Ponder by showing interest throughout the process was Duke, Iowa State, Syracuse, and a few others.
