Luke Fickell's focus for spring is to figure out 'how do we go to the next level'

As University of Cincinnati men's basketball coach John Brannen continues to sort through who's left in his locker room, Bearcats football coach Luke Fickell also has been forced to take inventory of his roster this offseason.

Like Brannen, who had six of his players enter the transfer portal last week, Fickell has had his issues of players transferring, as center Jakari Robinson earlier this month became the latest UC football player to enter the portal.

Robinson, who started 24 games during his Cincinnati career, entered the portal as a graduate transfer, joining backup quarterback Ben Bryant, wide receiver Jayshon Jackson and others.
