Hopefully that means you won't be posting anymore Chatter. Stick to baseball...
I said I won't be going off the deep end like you guys.
But it will entertaining watching you.

Maybe a legitimate point. Yancy Gates and Kevin Johnson. I suspect there's much more basketball talent in the NYC area than the Cincinnati area though....which is why we recruit NYC.
I will say, I was disappointed to see that we didn't seem to be a contender for Devin Williams at Withrow. I have no idea about any of the details but it seems like we should have been all over that kid

Honestly though, it's not like the greater Cincinnati area is churning out talent left and right. I might be missing some but the only one (besides KJ) is Devin Williams. Obviously Mick didn't pursue him. There are some good mid-major type players in the area, but with the way people complain about Mick's recruiting as it is, people would be livid if we took them.

If we don't get him, I'll certainly be pissed, but I won't go all "Mick can't recruit" like people love to go on this board. I would rather just watch how the team does on the court. We are a solid team right now and only a few of these kids were even 4 star recruits. None were anywhere close to 5 stars.

You've gone off the deep end more than your fair share

You seriously act like a child. How many times have you been banned from all the various boards? Take the hint...

They also laid off Semaj which I think was a mistake because he is going to be damn good. I don't really get the Williams kid either. I remember reading it was because he was an undersized PF that didn't have much athleticism and that isn't the type Mick is recruiting. However after watching the current crop of bigs that he has recruited I wouldn't mind getting someone who had the slightest bit of skill on the block. Similar things were said about Behanan (mostly sour grapes from UC fans) and I'm sure UC would love to have him.
I do think KJ will be a solid pickup. Looks like a good all around player with a high basketball iq.

behanon is 3 times the athlete williams is. The only knock on cb was he might of been a little undersized.

Yea, he is a better athlete. I was referring more to the undersized part.
I'm not saying Cronin made a mistake on Williams or not, time will answer that. But a skilled PF sounds pretty good after we keep getting big men who have virtually no offensive skill set.

Hopefully this shows him that Mick is doing everything to get him. Man, I just need to see him make a commitment, it's killing me. Exactly what this offense needs.

Hopefully Mick says, "Maine, did you see us on ESPN yesterday? We need you brother, you will be a stud for us."
LOL. Can't walk away can you?
Never know when to just shut up and move on. That's your weakness.
Haven't been banned from a board in a long, long, time, talking 5 or more years. But nice try.
I'm surprised you haven't been banned for simply being an asshole.
I'm moving on. Enjoy insulting me with no response. I'm not arguing with an idiot anymore.
Yeah, I kept thinking about Jermaine during that game, hoping he was watching and it was having a good impact on his decision.

Thanks for the laughs Chatter. At least you are good at something, even though completely unintentional on your part.
