Returning Player Refresher: Troy Caupain

Octavius Ellis may be the biggest and brightest star, but Caupain shines brightly as well. An argument could be made that he is at least as important as Ellis because he alone holds the keys to the methodical and no-margin-for-error offense. His ability to walk that line at the point could determine Cincinnati's fate.

A lot has been made of the returning talent at Cincinnati during the offseason. However, to use a football term, without a quarterback, all that talent could dissolve into a pool of mediocrity and NIT invites. With Troy Caupain, the Bearcats have their signal caller and they are fortunate that he is one of the best in the business.
