It's one thing for us fans to point out how X seems to ALWAYS have a player go off who normally doesn't. But Mick????



UC Bearcats' Mick Cronin disrespects former Xavier player Kerem Kanter

As Saturday's Crosstown Shootout gets closer, the back and forth between the two sides is heating up as it does every year.

Cincinnati Bearcats head coach Mick Cronin didn't disrespect any current Xavier Musketeers when asked about anything "strange" happening during the Crosstown Shootout, but did suggest that Kerem Kanter, who scored 17 points a year ago in his only Crosstown Shootout, is a guy who "never makes shots" and refused to refer to him by his name - only as Enes Kanter's brother - per FOX 19's Jeremy Rauch.

Mick Cronin asked how he prevents "something strange" from happening on OR off court in Crosstown Shootout:

"Strange things that bother me are guys making shots that never make shots. Enes Kanter's brother getting 17." @fox19 #Bearcats (Courtesy @GoBEARCATS)


Kanter was the Musketeers' third-leading scorer (behind current NBA two-way players Trevon Bluiett and J.P. Macura) during the 2017-18 season, averaging 10.9 points per game.

Kanter plays for JL Bourg Basket of the LNB Pro A in France.
