The three-star prospect neighborhood is where the Cincinnati Bearcats live.

Michael Warren II was one such three-star recruit and one that was brought in to help ease the transition from the Mike Boone/Tion Green backfield to that of the future.
As a true freshman, Warren was pushed into the fray pretty early on, which was a symptom of UC’s lack of depth at running back.
