That's the best offensive team I've ever seen from Cronin.

And the defense is up to snuff too.

I predict a Sweet 16 run, at a minimum.

Good luck the rest of the way. Make us proud.

I like this guy

Alot of basketball to play between now and then but see you in Cincinnati for round 2 in March.

If the Bearcats knock down their jump shots like they did today, then they are an elite team. Sweet 16 caliber. Even without shots falling their defense alone makes them dangerous. Hopefully they stay healthy and make a deep run in the tourney this year. GG

The difference is the big guys can score, and look to score. It's not just the PG carrying the load on the offensive end.

By the current RPI...the Cats are a 4 seed.

It was a good game. Like I said before, you guys are dangerous. I really like Gray, Dotson, and Chicken. That Vanbeek is a pain in the arse as well.

Its probably the best team we've had in the last 10-15 years or so but we're just not quite ready for the tourney. Can't fault the players for lack of effort. They're fighting, but there's just only so much you can do without an inside game. Is what it is. We'll still win some games this year but the tourney looks like a distant dream. Sucks, because I really wanted them to make it, given that its the last year with the current arena. A trip to the dance woulda been a nice way to end an era.

A ton of games still to be played. I think if you guys do not slip up with bad losses, a tourney bid is in reach.

Why does Sampson play Meyer over the guy with the funny name. That guy is a difference maker. He had at least four blocks and many changed shots. I do not see what Meyer offers.

RIP BC#1

Well, what did he finally do to poke the bear?

I agree.

However, Meyer is a better passer and has a decent jumper. They can run the offense through him at the high post.

Nkali is a defensive specialist and rebounder almost exclusively.

UH will be a threat to win the conference tournament, along with UConn, Memphis, SMU and of course the Bearcats. Don't see UCF as a likely tournament threat.

Meyer only had 12 minutes though. At some point, they caught on that he couldn't be on the floor at the same time as Washington.

Basically Meyer gets to play because Devin Davis is injured plus he's a senior. I'll actually give him credit he hustled but he has got to be the most unathletic big we've had in the last 20 years. Lol

If UH wins games they should and a couple in tourney, I think you make it......Keep the faith, a guard like Gray can carry a team a long way in college. Good luck.
