Since we have a week off...

[Bearcat_NTS]

To kill some time this week: Name your favorite Sean Kilpatrick moments. I'll start with my top ones...

1. The game against Marquette when he had 36 points including the game winner.

2. The NCAA tournament game against Florida State when he hit back-to-back late three pointers to take the lead.

3. Against Connecticut that same year, when he hit the game winning three pointer.

4. Beating Syracuse in the Big East tournament when he hit the dagger three to put UC up by (I think) 10 in the last minute.

5. Louisville game this year when he took over the final stretch and nailed 11-11 FT's.

6. His first collegiate game when he scored 21 points in 23 minutes.

7. Louisville game his freshman year when he came off the bench to score 18 points as UC got their first "signature" win that season.

It's always been #4 for me, but there are many more that have made a run at that one.

#2 gave me goosebumps. Remember it like it was yesterday

I think mine is when we beat Syracuse in the big east tourney, it was definitely a team win but that is probably my favorite moment of the mick Cronin era.

Hey guys, I'm a castoff from 247 and have been following this board for a while now. This is a great topic for a thread, so I thought I'd have to respond. Taking down #2 Syracuse in the Big East Tournament was an epic team win, but I think SK hitting that last second shot in Storrs to beat UCONN was his best moment. I remember 10K fans going nuts when Napier hit that three, then total shocked silence after SK drove the length of the floor and hit a dagger step-back 3 pointer. That being said, hopefully his best moment is yet to come......

I like this line--would not mind that coming true.

For me, the UConn winner is probably the single moment that I'll immediately think about when hearing SK's name in the future, followed closely by the Marquette game--that was just a special performance, really stepping up in the first game without Cash.

The way SK surpassed 2k yesterday was amazing. He just bullied the kids down low.

Mines the UCON shot for sure.

Mine's when he decided to stay one more year and said he loves the University of Cincinnati and being a Bearcat. To me this sums up all that SK is as a human being and the characteristic that makes him a great player.

Mine is when he gave me a shout out on Facebook during his freshmen year. He came onto my wall out of the blue and posted a simple message but it immediately made him my favor bearcat. Has been an absolute class act ever since.

I mean, I love SK and all, but "decided" to stay? He wasn't going to get drafted. If he left he'd have guaranteed played overseas. If he was projected to go late 1st round or something, we have no idea if he'd have bolted or not.

Many make the decision to leave to earn money. SK has a daughter. European money at 6 figures still pays the bills.

SK has some significant limitations that will make it difficult for him to make the NBA, but before this year I wouldn't have thought he could do it. I now think there is an outside chance. He has been special this year carrying a huge load for this team. To be as efficient as he has been given how frequently the ball is in his hands has really impressed me. I hope a team gives him a chance.
