I don't think I've been THIS wrong about a game since the Lance Stephenson year. Not a coincidence that this has been Mick's worst coaching job since that year.

Yeah. Even worse it's been a broken record for Mick this year. He has just been on repeat. He clearly isn't connecting with these players. I am tired of watching us recruit the same type of players and watch the same lack of fundamental development take place.
 
I don't know if it's me reacting to this loss, my pessimism, or how this year has gone for Cincinnati sports fans. But I don't see us making the tournament. I don't see us beating smu. And I don't see us beating uconn for a 3rd time
 
Now that UC isn't going to make the tournament in sure Xavier, Kentucky, somehow Ohio State and whatever team I hate the most after that will find their way to a final four just to make it more depressing.

I think we will beat SMU. (I'm usually a realisist when predicting games) But I def don't see us beating UConn. So ultimately I think our season is done.
 
I hate to say this, but the only guys I see on this team with real basketball talent that can compete at a high-major level are Gary, Jacob, & Troy.

Shaq=athlete with minimal basketball skill
Farad=Shoots the three well, but has no other facets in his game
Quadri=He tries
DeBerry=Solid, no motor, slow laterally
Ellis=Good size, terrible coordination overall. Temperament is that of a toddler's.
J. Jenifer=Freshman so i'll take it easy on him, but it seems like he doesn't enjoy being a point guard. Much to focused on scoring the ball off the dribble than i'd like to see.
KJ=good defender, terrible on the offensive side of the ball.

3 good all around players. Actually not even 3 because Evans defense leaves a lot to be desired. Xavier's got 8.
 
I'm sick to my stomach. After watching this pathetic display tonight, followed up by watching CBS Sports College Basketball tonight. UC has now played itself OUT of the NCAA Tour. The SMU game (WAS) a HUGH game for UC, now with tonight's loss, ALL the SMU game has become is a MUST win, and HOPE you can still win the AAC Tour. or it's NIT bound. I'm still going to blame Mick, injuries or not. He said this was his best team he has ever had since being @ UC, MIck it's time to go. Mickey Mouse needs to be fired, ASAP. This team CAN'T shoot to save it's life, period! :mad:

We lost a game that many people expected us to lose to a team that has beaten every team in our conference on their senior night with the biggest crowd they've had in a long time without two of our best senior players.

THIS IS PATHETIC. FIRE THE COACH. CAN'T WAIT TO LOSE IN THE NIT. WAHHHHH WAHHHH WAHHHHH.

You act like this was the only game all year. Have you been watching? Have you seen players develop? Have you seen a Bearcat in 10 years that could shoot? Have you seen Micks substitution pattern this season? I've seen nothing that makes me think we will ever get past the barely get in the NCAA tourney mode. The squeak in with a 9+ seed. I don't have any faith in what this coaching staff says because I've seen what they do and I've seen the results.

All very true statements. I agree with everything but also add, zero offensive plays/schemes. I am ready for a change.
 
Now that I've had more time to digest this loss. I keep coming back to the fact Mick has lost this team, at this point. He goes from saying at the beginning of this season, that this is the best team he has ever had since being here in Cincinnati, to it's always the refs fault, or we have injuries now. News flask Mick, this team isn't very good to begin with, and now that your fruits have come to bare, you take ZERO responsibility for this teams failures, and blame anybody and everybody but yourself. I wish that you would wake up this morning, and see the writing on the wall, that this is the team you put together, who has failed, and for once in your coaching career admit it's your fault. I am sick and tired of Mick ALWAYS blaming losses on anything except himself and his coaching staff. Mick has had his time here in the Queen city, but it's time to move on, be a man Mick and just admit you have failed, and it's time to move on, that's what a real man would do, not blame others for your failure. OK, I feel a little better now. Let's all try and have a good Friday. :rolleyes:
 
After sleeping it off and having some time to think about the loss. Ive come to the conclusion that we still suck and our football team/ basketball teams of 2015-2016 have been the hardest to watch of any teams my entire life. I think im going to start listening to the preseason analysts when they tell us we arent good enough to be ranked, instead of having this exaggerated expectation that we will actually preform well

Might be the only time in my life im not exited for next year
 
Team is still very much in play for the NCAA. Wasn't going to move up. A ten seed is better than 8/9. Who cares what the talking heads on CBS said last night. 68 teams have to get in. Aren't many options out there to replace UC. Win on Sunday and their in.

This is true. But, with the way this year as gone for Cincinnati sports fans. Its hard to expect anything good

It's been Micks worst season since 09. Mick needs to take a hard look in the mirror. In someways worse than that year.
