CINCINNATI — Game-day visits are heating up on the recruiting circuit—and Cincinnati football has a duo of notable visitors coming to town this weekend, starting with 2024 three-star cornerback Desman Stephens out of Clarkston (Michigan).

According to 247Sports, Stephens is the 63rd-ranked cornerback nationally and the 20th-ranked cornerback in Michigan. The junior holds three offers from Miami (OH), Western Michigan, and Toledo.

All those offers came in June as Stephens continues growing at 6-foot-2, 208 pounds. This lanky talent has all the makings of an eventual four-star corner. He's long, technically solid enough to use his frame as a weapon, and he has nice ball skills as a wide receiver/corner at Clarkston.

Stephens already has multiple interceptions this season on great anticipation reads—both came on dig routes that he jumped before receivers could get turned around. He's so advanced physically that it's hard to gauge the talent he's facing, but Stephens is working with a great foundation built in high school. Check out highlights here.

Next up is linebacker Huston Eubank out of Roseville (Michigan).

Eubank is not ranked on any recruiting service, but he holds 11 offers from schools like Akron, Ball State, and Bowling Green.

The 6-foot-2, 200-pound linebacker has some nice tools to utilize. He tracks the ball well down the line of scrimmage and wraps soundly. He likely needs to add more weight to hold on as a linebacker in college and could stand to get a little lower and drive harder through his tackles. Check out highlights here.
