I said name one guy on the roster. You couldn't because there isn't. Fail...

You are too smart for me. Thanks for your in depth recruiting knowledge. Trevor Moore (our only 2017 commit) is probably going to pick up a Duke, UK and UNC offer tomorrow. Humbling experience dealing with you Coach. Thanks.

Now that Mick has filled two positions for 2017 in Moore and Broome, it's time for him to go all out and get a top recruit. We need a quality big and wing. I hope to god this coaching staff can reel em in.
 
Seems like immediate help in the spring is hard to come by. That's why I hope we get 2 more players by the fall. That'd put us at 12 and we'd be playing with house money next spring. We could afford to be srlective, and that way we could potentially add another transfer, or a big that could redshirt like Chad was talking about. But we wouldn't have ourselves in a situation where we'd be looking for a guy to fit into the regular rotation. That gamble has shown to not pay off.
 
Cincinnati is ranked #48 in the updated 247 class rankings behind power house programs like South Dakota State, Columbia, Richmond and Stephen F. Austin. Thanks Mick.

Just to explain how dumb of a comparison this is, UC is currently ahead of UK and Duke for 2017. We still have a full calendar year to recruit, dude. I generally throw in the towel in Week 2 during the NFL season as well.

You're wasting your time. This guy is nothing but negative and must be a miserable sob away from the keyboard
 
Would love to add a wing and a big as well as still adding a player for 2016. Cats have some talent to build on. We could be looking at a nice couple of years.
 
I agree. We keep saying this, but really where is this 2016 player going to come from? It's almost August.

Again, why is Brooks not on campus school starts in 3-4 weeks.

Back to 2017 recruiting. I hope we get Anthony Gaines or Keith Williams as our wings then get some big guys. If the evaluation period is ending shouldn't we be hearing something soon?

Like you I'm not holding out a great deal of hope for 2016 addition. But you never know. I have to believe they are still looking

Perhaps Chad can shed some light on Brooks.

I know the evaluation period is in progress but I have know idea on timeline.
 
Big step up from the #58 and #62 ranking they gave us for 2015 and 2016.

If the rankings actually included transfers (Washington, Broome), you have to figure we'd be in the 30s or so. Those websites give a school with four 3-star recruits a higher rating than those with two 4-star recruits. I care more about average ranking per person, if that makes sense.
