Cincear Lewis and Gavin Forsha join Ball State football linebackers

Senior transfers Cincear Lewis and Gavin Forsha are poised to enhance Ball State's linebacker unit ahead of the upcoming season. After the departure of several key players, including top contributors from the previous year, the Cardinals sought experienced options to replenish their ranks. Lewis, formerly with Cincinnati, and Forsha, who transitioned from Tennessee State, are both looking to make significant contributions as they approach their final collegiate season. Defensive coordinator Jeff Knowles emphasized the importance of veteran leadership in the linebacker room, which now includes mostly younger players alongside Lewis and Forsha.
