Xavier now has the #4 recruiting class in the country. Cincinnati is currently at #49. SMH.

That gives them 5 new guys for 2017. They only have 11 scholarships used for 2016 so with 4 seniors and the possibility of blueitt and Sumner leaving early they could add 3 more players for next year. That would be a huge class
 
Kind of random but saw a guy on PS4 created 36 college teams in NBA 2K17 (they don't do college games anymore). Anyway, we are one of the teams you can be in the game. No other AAC team available. That's what's up!

That's a cool thing they did. Connecticut is on there too and so is Dayton, Xavier, Kentucky, Indiana and Louisville.

So there are rule changes going forward. The way I see it, we could be dealing with a lot of foul calls on our defense. I hope we learned how to shoot free throws as well. Idk how I feel about the rule change on full court traps. Seems weak

"Collins said when teams trap or double team, fouls will likely go up as players and coaches adapt to the nuanced difference between resolute defense vs. completely impeding an offensive player's rightful space to make a basketball move. Defense is important, but smothering a player to the point of paralysis is no longer allowed."


UC's defense is usually pretty intense and likes to trap. Will this make Cronin change the way he has the team play D?

He is going to have to change a little bit at least
 
For the life of me I can't figure out why SK isn't a starter in the NBA yet. Especially for the sorry ass team he is playing for now. I don't get to watch his games much, but he scores very well and has been shooting pretty much 50+ % since he got in the league. I looked last year at the end of the season and I can't remember exactly where he landed but it was top five or ten for points per 40 min. Anyway, I gotta lotta love for the guy and just can't figure it out.
