Rothstein high on Cats

Amazing the lack of attention Cincinnati gets after 52 wins + 2 NCAAs. The Bearcats will be a Top 25 team -- with or without Chris Obekpa.

Love Jon.

Always strong for the Cats. Doesn't get caught up in names.

I do not like the "with or without" part of this tweet. Is Rothstein trying to tell everyone something and trying to keep people positive at the same time? I wonder if this is his way of saying he no longer believes Obekpa will be a Bearcat.

No. He hasn't wavered from his belief that Obepka will be a Bearcat. His point was only to say that he is not basing a top 25 ranking on his belief in regards to a recruit.

I do not know what type of drug slang "cats" is but I like that Rothstein is high on it...

I believe they have a chance to be better than last year's team. I think Parker is an improvement over Dixon.

I think they can replace Yancy's scoring easier than they can replace his defense and rebounding. That is the key. But positions 1 thru 4 will be stronger with more depth (Guyn, JDIII, Sanders) and options (Shaquille Thomas). We all know it's the 5 spot that is up for grabs.
