On the first day of football practice, all eyes were on Oak Forest and running back Tevin Coleman.

He is ranked as one of the top 25 tailbacks in the nation, according to MaxPrep.com. And his presence lends credence to the notion the Bengals can improve on a 6-4 record.

Oak Forest opens vs. Chicago Urban Prep/East Garfield Park on Aug. 26.

How many yards will Tevin Coleman rush for this fall? Name the Bengals' best all-time back. Tell us in the comments.
