Have to think if we can get this kid, Mick has a very good big man lined up that he's confident will be a Bearcat.

Was thinking the same thing. We have wings but I guess you never turn down talent. I do think we will get 1 or 2 of these guys in the next couple years if teams start getting sanctions and we can stack some nice seasons.

This would be a huge pickup! If we can somehow add a quality scoring big later on it would be a home run. A grad transfer who can score in the paint would work perfect if we can't land a quality HS guy.

Either that or he feels Brooks, Scott, Diarra, and Noseme are going to be ready to go offensively sooner rather than later.

But I also think he doesn't want to waste a scholarship on a "project". IMO, there is no reason to offer a big man who may or may not be ready to play when we have a lot of young depth in our front court already.

We have 4 athletic bigs after this year who can all run, jump, defend, rebound, block, etc. We certainly don't need another one in this mold. I think we will need scoring in the paint. I think Brooks will probably be decent by that time but we could use another option down there. No projects...I would rather hold 1 over.

Wouldn't chad at least know something? Maybe he does and isn't saying anything but he usually sends out a tweet about us having interest or something like that. Like I said hopefully I'm wrong but I would think people around the program would know something and I haven't heard a word

UC isn't recruiting Antwann Jones...

He's had time to change it and look at it, he clicked Cincinnati for reason

When he made the pick, Cincinnati had not even spoken with the kid at all and were still doing research on him. They never got past that point. It was uninformed with no basis in reality...
