This basketball game against Alabama State is about control, everything is about control. Cincinnati will maintain control against Alabama State.

Cincinnati is the dream killer, the reaper of souls, the master puppeteer on the stage of fools. Cincinnati the only one who can see the big picture, the grand design.

So Alabama State, take your bleeding hearts somewhere else, there's no room for you here.

This isn't a charity house, this isn't a key club or an old age home, this is basketball, this is a business, this is my life. Cincinnati basketball.

Cincinnati says what and who goes, Cincinnati is the master of the house, Cincinnati pull the strings around here. So I don't care who the hell you are-If you're in Cincinnati's way you will get taken out!

Alabama State, you will get taken out!
