Wow. Scary. Glad they caught it early. I wish Mick all the best in a speedy recovery.

 

[PakMan]

Wow. This is serious, potentially career-threatening given the nature of his job.

That really sucks for him. Given all the incredible levels of anger and screaming he brings, I can't say I'm surprised. Like mentioned before, good thing this was caught early rather than croaking him in the middle of game when a ref blows a call in front of him.

 

[UCalum08]

Really sad to hear. Hope everything will be okay. Good thing he isn't here for the game. It might have ruptured.

I can't believe you typed this. "Rather than croaking him in the middle of game when a ref blows a call." Maybe have a little empathy for someone dealing with something potentially life threatening and career threatening. There are things more important than sports.

I really do. It's just how I come off... I talk in a very candid manner, online and IRL. Sorry if I came off as uncaring to him, he's the only Cincy coach I've known I really want him to pull through.

This is horrible news....I am praying for Cronin to get healthy and back on the sideline. This is a very serious medical issue.

Get well soon young man!!!

 

[UCalum08]

I miss him already. Hope he gets well soon.

This has received national attention. It's one of the main headlines on yahoo.com.

 

[TheLongHaul]

Terrible news. Hope he has a speedy recovery.

As everyone winds down their day, please take a moment and say a prayer for @CoachCroninUC. There are things more important than basketball.

 

[bearcat jeff]

He will be missed on the bench there is no doubt about that. My prayers are for you Coach.

 

[JackBauer151]

Kind of cool to see former players that he recruited (And didnt get) sending out prayers for him and complimenting on what a great person he is.

Mick having a procedure today. Here is hoping everything goes well and he has a speedy recovery.

 

[david aka the TYZ]

Yeah I heard on the way home on the radio that he is having angioplasty done so they can better gauge what is going on.
