[Queens_NYC]

Favorite players: Lance & Evans

[Cin City]

Favorite players:Troy and Jarron

Favorite game: Purdue NCAA and X Caupains senior year

Favorite moment: Winning the AAC tourney b2b. Any win over Louisville.

 

[cincycpaw]

Favorite players: Gary Clark, Troy Caupain, Sean Kilpatrick, Jarron Cumberland....hmmmm I guess I’ll stop

Favorite game: Some good ones. Due to recent bias, beating Houston for the 2nd straight conference tourney title.

Favorite moment: Troy Caupain getting emotional during UCONN game and getting a technical. Or yancy punching that punk from Eggs.

Least favorite moment: Mick disciplining Caupain for that...wrong move IMO.

He may not have been all american but Justin Jackson is one of my all time favorites. Mean Face. Enough said. Just one of the non obvious ones.

The Brawl was a defining moment for the coach, team, and program and it was handled well.

I don't have a favorite game but I guess beating FSU was right up there to put us in the S16

Mick did have pretty talented teams.. The Lance with Deonta Vaughn Team should have meshed better. Mick was young in the Big East and at the time the conf was def the best... the Rashad Bishop Sr yr squad was a solid team kemba Walker uccon was tough draw, man if Lance had just stayed one more year...

All Mick squad would have to be Justin Jackson, Gary Clark, Rashad Bishop, Sean Kilpatrick, Cashmere Wright before his senior year injury or if he never got hurt from the start, with Jarron Cumberland, Lance Stephonson, Yancy Gates, C. Debearry, Jacob E, Dion Dixon, Chiek M, and Deonta Vaughn.
Favorite Player tho SK
Favorite moment is beating Syracuse in BEast semi or SK's last sec shot on the road against uccon.. Purdue game was crazy magical too
