I know UC has some connections, but do we even have a shot? Read an article on scout and went to their profile of him, and didn't even list UC. Had warmer on Louisville and warm on North Carolina...
 
If our brand of basketball was even mildly entertaining, or if we had somebody, anybody drafted besides Lance in the past ten years, we could have a chance.

Seriously, you honestly believe they are not entertaining this year?

Season ticket holders never see losses. That by itself is entertaining in any form. If we win this weekend, we'll be at 44-6 last 2 years in the regular season. That's insane.

Have you not watched our conference games? Did you watch the Xavier, Florida, and UCLA games. Beating up on the cupcakes is not fun to watch. Rock fights are not fun to watch.

Yes the X game we did not play defense and the Florida game we just turned the ball over too much. And by the way how was the UCLA game not entertaining?

I am sorry I guess we wont agree on this but this team is entertaining and if you are using the past to judge this team you are missing some good basketball.

The past! I only talked about this season. Ucf ugly, temple ugly, the aforementioned games ugly, buffalo ugly. I want ball movement, cuts back doors, lobs etc.

our style has very little to do with our inability to compete with the P-5 conference for 5 star recruits. Conference affiliation limits the amount of players we will have opportunity to recruit. Our National identity is hardworking,scrappy group who will out work you to win the game. That is what our program is in today's market. We are WSU and Gonzaga. Very good programs void of 5 star recruits.

Temple was ugly. UCF the Bearcats didn't shoot well (they never do there) but the ball movement was good and they were getting good shots. UCLA was an amazingly fun game. They DOMINATED and scored 77 points on the road at Pauley. Not sure what you are watching.

I believe he had "other stuff" going on during the UCLA game.

We are WSU and gonzaga without the tourney success or conference titles. I ha reading this board for years. I know the arguments you are gonna make about why we don't get 5 stars but we are Cincinnati dammit!!! We don't make excuses. We get it done. No more reasons why not! We can do it dammit
 
It's a slow day no game for a couple of days so looks like this thread heated up LOL
 
I also think it's nice his dad played for us, but I don't know how far that would take us unless he grew up a fan. Let's look at it the other way.

What if he was a borderline 3-star and not a tough kid. Would we offer him a scholarship just because his dad played for us?

Mick did not offer Justin Jackson's brother. He was hoping he would grow taller but he didn't. Loyalty will only get you so far.

They're only 13 scholarships or whatever. Now if you own your own company and you have 1,000 employees, you can give a spot to someone and loyalty take you a little bit further.
