The Johnnies

[bearcat jeff]

Kilpatrick has been terrible the last 4 games. Terrible. This is clearly Cash's team.

 

[ralph1950]

Yet they won... Good point

Yea because number 11 through up a prayer with a minute or so to go that went in for 3.

If the team had shown up mentally it wouldn't have mattered.

Lavin made a big time coaching mistake up 10 with 5 minutes left he takes air out of the ball and destroys Johnnies offensive mojo.

Even garbage coaches can win when they have better players. Yes, I just said Lavin is a horrible coach after they beat us.

Reading comprehension time. Did I say they were "better coached"?

I said they were coached better "in the last minute" in addition to playing better. The italicized part is a dependent clause.

Blaming "talent" is a cowardly excuse. Mick needs to get the team back on track for the game with Notre Dame.

Dont get angry guy, I sort of agree with you. But what do you mean back on track... They havent been on track offensively unless they were playing cupcakes.

And rubles hit three threes... Miracle

Rubles making 3-6 3pt FG was probably an even bigger prayer answered.

I didn't expect a veteran team to need a wake up call like this, but they better get it together or it's going to be another home loss on Monday night. Big time lack of focus at home the last few games.

Agreed... Id hate to see where we would be without him. Cash comes up with so many big shots.

even with some of the cupcakes,uc struggle to score on.

i'm worried that uc might have hit their peak already offensively. the nd game will tell us a lot about this team.

 

[BearcatMick]

16 turnovers.

31% from the floor.

outrebounded in our gym.

more miss layups.

i'm truly concern moving forward.

You are being overly dramatic. Well be fine

 

[JumpinJack5]

You are being overly dramatic. Well be fine

I like your optimism, but frustrated is a good word to use.

 

[westsidecat]

You are being overly dramatic. Well be fine

i don't think i'm being overly dramatic. this isn't a one time thing..it's a trend.

we won @pitt more because of pitts play then ours. whice is fine, those games happen.

in the nm game and this one, we miss wide open shots, mental mistakes, and costly turnovers.

we lost 2 games by a point. i can live with the nm game. but st.johns? at home? as a top 15 team? not so much.

cincy has some serious issues to take care of before being a serious threat to win the conference. those issues are still showing up 15 games in the season. not good,imo.

 

[Gotcha23]

Cheikh with 10 rebounds and we lose. That is not a stat I thought I'd see in a loss.

 

[All we do is Guyn]

SK and Parker with a combined 10 points is what killed us

 

[JumpinJack5]

Cheikh with 10 rebounds and we lose. That is not a stat I thought I'd see in a loss.

Or Rubles making 3 threes. Whoever had the bold prediction was right!

 

[catsfan4life]

cash played a great game.

rubles was not a bad as everyone said 3-6 from deep was nice for a change.

harrisons shot with a minute left was complete luck that it dropped



WE GOT OUTHUSTLED and OUTPLAYED TODAY

 

[JumpinJack5]

Well, Ralphy had a rough day!

 

[Bcatfollower]

SK and Parker with a combined 10 points is what killed us

Without any 4 or 5 scoring the guards can play sk and park tight to take away the outside shot and the bigs can stay put in the post to cut them off or block their shots... They need to be able to dish to the bigs but as weak as we are at finishing from the 4 and 5 i see why they dont give it up.

 

[BearcatBball]

Where is the uptempo offense mick was talking about all preseason. We didnt even try to push the tempo once.

 

[TheLongHaul]

Obekpa > any UC big man.

Why the F does Sanders get playing time? He is worthless out there.

Cronin should have tried Jackson and Rubles out there together to get more quickness. Our bigs were worthless against their athleticism.
