Florida

[juckerrules]

Correct - the reason people are upset is this is the same story, different year. I keep waiting for that step up and it doesn’t come. Last year was suppose to be a grea year...it was a terrific regular season and then usual tournament results. Then this is “mick has his best team ever”...ok then, prove it. Still lots of time left, but the reality is by losing the big games and scheduling terrible teams it makes thebseeding very difficult...eventually the Bearcats will have to beat a good team in the tournament.

Just such a disappointment, again.

I too am very disappointed in the team so far. I really expected more. The sad thing is, as excited as I have been to have a flashy point guard and speed and scoring yada yada yada, I really think that last year’s team would have defeated Florida in a major rock fight. They probably would’ve won this game 58-53 or something like that. I still believe that given time, and the stiff competition they’rre now facing, they will toughen up and mesh together better and be a far better team in March than they are right now. We might see an example of that Tuesday. Mississippi State is coming in undefeated but have played only weaker teams at home. We are coming off playing two of the better teams in the country. I think that will show on Tuesday.

I hear a bunch of this is Micks best team ever talk. Just maybe it's not. I'll wait until the final game to judge. Right now there is a bunch of work this team needs to do.

Also this is my team good or bad. Hearing people get on here after every loss trying to fire the coach is tired and old. Mick isn't going anywhere.

The 3 best players on the court tonight were Koulechov, Chiozza, and Hudson.

Our finishing around the rim was atrocious.

The good news is, it looks like we're definitely getting Evans back for a 4th year with how ill-composed he looked for the majority of tonight.

Anyone else scared to death at the prospect of Scott and Brooks seeing extended minutes together next season?

No more frightened then I am of watching Washington play no defense and force shot after shot against triple teams.

Its not like mick has any development plan for the future. So scott brooks will be forced into action unprepared.

He has this year and the off season to add to the roster.

we are 7-2, haven't started league play yet and your already casting doom and gloom for next season. Gosh I would hate to have that outlook. Have you ever enjoyed a season. I have but then I'm one of the few posters who have been alive when we actually won a title.

I'm talking about bench development. Scott and brooks are both sophomores. Brooks was called the most improved player and he can barely do anything on the floor. I'm not concerned about next season because it will be just like this one and the previous 7.

Something you may want to consider. We are a good program. Considering all the changes in college athletics that have worked against us we are still a very good program. I don't like losing anymore then any other person posting but firing the coach is not going to correct the things that need correcting to help us be a better program.

We are a mediocre program trying to make the next step. Other than the big east years we have always been in mid tier conferences. We had a good streak in the 60's based on questionable recruiting. What else? A few good huggins teams. Mick is great at maintaining the status quo but why not see what someone else can do.

Mediocre programs do not go to the tourney 7 years running or win 30 games a season. Would I like more, sure but we are not mediocre. While I agree our conference affiliations were never great comparing those days to what is now happening in college athletics is apples and oranges. This is something you may want to get your head around if you want to enjoy the program. And for the record if I thought a new coach would improve our situation I would be all in. The fact is I believe it would be a lot worse.

Age clearly doesn't make people wise.

Do you think mick is the best coach in the AAC?

I'll consider your insult a attempt at humor. Yes Mick is one of the best coaches in the league.

You got nothing but being a douche on your record. Come out of hiding When the cats lose. You're a joke. Ban me or not, idc, you guys aren't real fans. You can pretend al you want, you can refer to whatever you want, in the end you guys are nothing but fake fans, you are a joke. Fake ass Cincinnati fans Cincinnati fans ready to give up on a moments notice.

Hey man, I'm agreeing with you on many points. It was just funny. I'm not hear for stress. Sports are a distraction from real life.

How many other AAC teams have been to the tourney the last 7 years straight???

I asked if you thought he was THE best. Not one of.

Im assuming by your answer you think some are better. If that's the case given the salary u.c. pays why settle.

I wasn't attempting to be funny. You're condecending with your comments and it shows your inability to understand a good amount of the fanbase's frustration.

How many have not yet gone past the first weekend more often?

I'm not Giving up lol. I read this forum daily, nearly every post that interests me. Been to FF, many tourney games when I was younger with less Obligations etc.

Used to go practice all the time... My entire sports hobby life revolves around UC BB. Reds and Bengals are like 5 levels below.
