Bearcats legend, edge-rush disruptor, and football lifer
Connor Barwin is not a current Cincinnati DE; he starred for the Bearcats from 2005-08 and was a 2008 Big East sack leader with 13 sacks after switching from tight end, a rare athletic leap that still defines his profile[12]. He combined size, speed, and versatility, finishing his UC senior year with 27 tackles, 14.5 tackles for loss, and 11 sacks, while his background as a two-sport, high-motor competitor hints at the toughness and adaptability teams love[4][12].
