The "Big Uglies" got a boost this week when Ohio football coach Brian Knorr announced a new line coach and a new lineman.

The lineman is JUCO Henry Valencia, a 6-3, 310 standout at L.A. Harbor College, where he teamed with fellow Bobcat signee Ralph Bracamonte for the Seahawks. Unlike Bracamonte, Valencia, although he has graduated from Harbor, will not be available for the Cats until summer camp due to scholarship numbers.

The line coach is Jeff Bleamer, who joins the Bobcat program from East Tennesse State University. Bleamer played collegiately at Penn State and had a stint in the National Football League.
