Is Mick Cronin. His best job ever.

Cronin needs to do something in the tournament this year.

In 14 seasons (11 in Cincinnati)...only has ONE Sweet 16, and 5 total Tournament wins

May be one of the most overrated coaches in the country because he hasn't done squat when it really matters.

Wow, that's hard to believe. Cool info....

I agree. I pick them to win 1-2 games and they flame out every year. But Conference COY is based on regular season. I went with Cronin but Sampson maybe should get it; but he does have a great PG is is a coach on the floor. Gray runs that team on the floor-no looking over to the bench.

Then we can chat about Cronin I suppose.

Actually a lot of the conference has not bathed itself in glory this year.

- Wichita is still good, but not COY good.
- Tulsa hasn't been a dumpster fire, but it hasn't been good.
- UCF is better than they should be with the injuries, but still not good.
- I'm shocked SMU still can put 5 on the floor.
- Temple is just good enough to piss off their fanbase.

Honestly, it feels like:

1. Sampson
2. Cronin
3-11: everyone else
12: Ollie

I think Cinci was picked to finish first...

If WSU wins it last two games @UCF and Cinci at home (they likely will be favored) they win the conference.

Right now Cinci is 11 RPI WSU is 12th
Right now Cinci is ranked 10th WSU is 11th

Not sure why Cronin gets credit but WSU does not especially when WSU has already beat Cinci in Cinci

I think Cincy is a little less talented than WSU particularly at guard position.
