Mick Remaining at Cincinnati

[WAITE HOYT 2]

There is one saving grace Waite. When the officer talked me down off that Carew Tower ledge a few hours ago, he mentioned Washington, Caupain , Clark, Cumberland, etc. and it wasn't making a difference. I couldn't take it no more. But as a last resort, he said. "L-T, don't do it. What about Justin Jennifer?" On that note, I stepped down and gave the officer a hug and decided to move forward with optimism.

LMAO!!!

You know I think you were on to something with TC being better suited off the ball and as a second ball handler. But then he comes up with those games like 56 minutes without a TO against UCONN and I think he has to stay at PG. Also just don't think JJ is ready for a full time role. Could be the team around him or maybe his game is just not there but he really just didn't wow me after we quit playing the cream puffs of our schedule. I know some people think it's how Mick handled him but it's more then that for me. I want to get a lot more athletic in our back court.JJ just doesn't scream that to me. Mick hasn't really had much of that in his tenure. Until we get that I guess TC has to stay at PG.

I love Mio's! Go there before every game I am able to attend.

We all got to hook up.

He said he almost transferred from UC to UNLV in the 90s or sonething to get on the staff, but it fell through. Also vacations there often.

Doesn't surprise me. You think Pete Rose is the only west sider to gamble. Lol

 

[WAITE HOYT 2]

......and out of all of this me and Waite even bonded again. Who would have thunk it?

I tried to reel UCBearcts in but he turned me down. Lol

Me too, my wife and I are regulars before UC games. Jen the GM treats us very well there. Mick's brother Dan loves to hang there as well.

I have pretty mixed feelings about it all. I'm happy for the players that they don't have to make serious life changes. I'm happy we don't have to potentially start over. The thought of a coaching search made me nervous but would've been kind of fun. And I'm not thrilled with the way Cronin handled this.

I don't get the beef with how Cronin handled it though. He said if he could do it privately he would have and he released 2 statements during the whole thing and did not say much of anything. Be mad with the way a ill informed media treated it. Mick never lied about his intentions nor lead on unlv nor talked about the university.

Mick was just silent and he let every ones heads wander on about the possibilities but that's not his fault. Sure he cancelled a radio show but the main topic would be his offer at unlv and why would you talk about something that he hasn't really dove into himself.

Blame Twitter and our 100 and something page thread and how we handled it, not mick

The radio show thing bugs me. He could have EASILY said "This is a season recap show for the Bearcats, I'm not going to go into any of that". I'm sure Dan Hoard would've respected those wishes.

What a shitty day.

id almost prefer u types who seem to want us to do bad just to be right go ahead and go root for west virginia already

 

[Btown Bearcat]

Cronin better be 100% in at UC bc no other school will want to deal with him after this mess.

ya because this is just so rare in college sports.

 

[Btown Bearcat]

Actually, this is a very freeing day for me. I was under the mistaken impression that we wanted to play with the power brokers of college basketball. Now that we've decided that mid-major is our calling, I think we have the coach for the job. I can finally accept Mick.

just go be a west virginia fan u know deep down u want to

The UNLV AD looks SOOOO bad today. Why would any AD go down this road? Not worth it.

thats how these things work its just unlv is handling it like a bunch of children if anything it hurts unlv not cronin and besides if cronin was gonna leave cinci on his own it would have been today

I don't even know why you're arguing this. Arguing just to argue.

 

[ervins84]

Played around on kenpom today because that's more interesting than talking about Mick. From 2011 to 2015 UC was 57-0 when scoring more than 1.1 points per possession. This season, just 11-5.

I like all these super pro Cronin dummies that wish away the fan base if they don't like cronin. Heads up... Most of the fans are gone.

I'll let you know when I make it to my first game next year!

 

[WAITE HOYT 2]

Sounds good.

 

[rogerOH]

Attendance next year will probably go up next year , online bashers of Cronin will be miserable.

I'd bet against that all day long.

BCat that's not accurate. Attendance has been rising.Mick is going to be here for awhile. Is this really how you want to approach each season. Arguing about the coach.
