...glad their bid is looking more likely with each game

tramon mark is probably the favorite for FOY, but his minutes is expected to drop when mills is healthy, wont be shocked to see adams sneak up and win it

UC is a good team, despite the record- they are young team....they are getting better.. i would not be shocked to see them pull a uconn (stick up the first half, really good at the end),

-- if i was UC you have 12 days till your next game .. if i was UC id schedule a 2day "MTE" with the worst 2 teams i could find and start working out some of the kinks and build some confidence


also there is a legitimate debate that memphis is the 2nd worst team in this league... ecu beat Tulane more comfortably than memphis

I generally agree with your observations but you are completely wrong on UC.

We are decidedly not a good team. Name one thing we do well? We turn the ball over at a ridiculous rate. Can't shoot from the perimeter. We are atrocious defensively. Our two centers move like their feet are stuck in quicksand. We underachieved last year when we had the best offensive player in the league and another stud in Tre Scott. Those guys are gone and Brannen has shown to be clearly in over his head.

Who has gotten any better besides Davenport? Vogt's regression is laughable. At least Brannen realized 6 games in that you can't play him and Rap together. Keith Williams gets in foul trouble every game.

I could not be more down on this program right now. We do not have a single recruit for next year as Brannen decided he wouldn't offer anyone that he couldn't see in person. Guess what, pal? We are in the midst of a global pandemic and not a single coach can watch these guys in person. This roster is void of talent going forward except Eason (I like Saunders but his jumper make Jarreau look like Steph Curry) and our coach decided to punt on an entire recruiting class????

Brannen is a joke. I know he will likely get two more years but I have zero hope for his tenor. They have gotten worse each game this season and the guy can't recruit. We hired a low major coach, who hired a low major staff. What are we doing here again?

This is UC's worst start since the early 80s. That team finished 3-25. Haven't lost 4 straight games in 11 years (when we were in the Big East). Hadn't lost to USF at home in 32 years. Check. Had never lost back to back games to UCF. Check. Can't wait for what other first Brannen accomplishes this year. Really looking forward to see how this brilliant coach recruits after finishing in the bottom half of a bad league...
