Doubly good---4* and XU steal! Love this signing

Well this is very good news and somewhat unexpected! Would love to get Tandy or Mills but honestly I was just hoping for 1 of the 3. Two of them would be a bonus!

Welcome aboard Samari! I love the stop and go action he has. Not sure about his shot form but he seems to get it off pretty quick and with accuracy.

 

[cincycpaw]

[david aka the TYZ]

Great news, welcome to the bearcats!!

 

[Mcginnjw]

This is awesome news. I was pissed when Xavier landed him. This will just add another great element to rivalry.

Great News!!! Welcome aboard.

This pickup needs more love! I think the last game we played killed a lot of the excitement that this would have generated. I understand the buzz kill we all had to endure but it's still a great get!

I really look forward to seeing him play here!!

Yeah I know what you mean....this is an amazing get. Very excited to have this kid as a Bearcat. But I too am struggling to get overly excited...need games to tip off to get back into the groove I guess.

I agree, now we just need Tandy and Martin Jr. for this class. If we can pick up them I think that will have to be the best recruiting class in the AAC...well maybe second behind Memphis.

Yah. Had we beat Nevada and maybe won another game this thread would be on page 10 by now. If you don't believe that go back and look at the threads of our commits the past two years. Even the question mark recruits were getting 12+ pages and many recruits were getting 20+.

Curtis deserves to be talked about a lot!! I don't care what fans think of the coach...the fans who want the program to be great should be all over this one. I am certainly not a Cronin for life guy right now...but we need high level recruits to keep committing to keep our program on solid ground.

The recruits want to feel appreciated and welcomed...even desired.

 

[Cin City]

I hope that JC has a great year but would love to see him back as a senior to play alongside Curtis. I believe Curtis will be a really good player for us and look forward to watching him.

Can’t disagree.

Not that I don't think Curtis would be capable because I think he probably will...but even Cumberland only played 19 mpg his frosh year and KJ played like 28 mpg. We will have Williams, Moore, Fredericks on the roster.

I think 20 minutes is doable but Cronin doesn't give his frosh much more than that unless there is a glaring need to. Curtis looks like a stud but there will be plenty of competition.

And, I too hope that Cumberland is here all 4 years. We would have Scott and Brooks as seniors as well. Johnson as a soph and 1 of about 3 or 4 more wings to fill out that starting lineup. Williams, Moore, Fredericks, and maybe a player TBD (Tandy or Mills please).
