WEST HARRISON – When Bryan Cook first joined the University of Cincinnati football team, he was a recluse. Since he didn't know anyone, he often kept to himself, getting lost in the music playing through his headphones.

"I had my headphones on," Cook said. "I guess he asked me a question. He was like, 'How's the lift?' I said, 'It's cool.' I put my headphones back on and walked out. He was like, 'Nah, man, this dude is an a-hole.
