If you've been reading "Heard It From Hoard" for the past few years at gobearcats.com, here's what you can expect from me on the website's new format:

More.

I'll be writing more frequently and you will be receiving it more rapidly.

In previous years it took several hours - sometimes days - for my columns to get published.  Now, when I have information that I think you'll find interesting, I can post it on gobearcats.com immediately.

I plan to share pre-game and post-game observations before my UC football and basketball broadcasts, and hope to tell you a few things about Bearcat players and coaches that you haven't seen or heard elsewhere.

And yes, there will be updated photos of the handsome lad.

I also plan to answer your questions.  You can e-mail me at dhoard@pawsox.com.

And if you Twitter, you can follow my tweets at http://twitter.com/Dan_Hoard

So if you've enjoyed "Heard if from Hoard" in the past, I'm sure you're going to enjoy it on the new-and-improved gobearcats.com.

Hopefully, even more.
