Because we are not very good?

There was some dumb basketball in that stretch to end the half.

ACTUALLY, back in the good old days of huggins coaching, when uc Was an annual top 5 team, we lost a lot of games to Temple. It always seemed that temple would hit a ton of 3's against cincinnati from 8 feet behind the 3 point line It was almost a regular occurence. Temple was a lot like Xavier playing against us.

Ballgame. You can’t come up empty three straight after stops

This is an example of bad high school basketball. People pay to watch this?

And they cannot make free throws.

Just a depressing state of affairs. I can’t believe we are still packing 9,000 into 5/3rd every night

DeJulius is too small for this game.

This one is looking like it's over.

DDJ too small, MAW lays bricks, JD is who he is. Lame duck season. Reed and Hensley have to play

So one of my Christmas presents was two tickets to Houston at UC. I appreciate the thought and I'll go, but it will be ugly.

What will Miller have to say about this lackluster performance (including coaching)?

Hard to win when you get crushed on the boards. It seems like it's just who we are. We have three guys who are above average rebounders (Lakhin, Ody and Skillings).

Everyone else has a lack of positional size (DDJ, MAW, Davenport, Reed) and/or a lack of desire (Nolley, Davenport, Hensley). Not sure what can be done at this point. I wonder if Houston can manage to double us up on the boards.

He'll say he's done asking, then next game they'll continue to shoot terrible 3s and not rebound

We are a mediocre AAC team. PLAY THE YOUNG GUNS

Outrebounded 46-28. Pitiful. Poor effort. No desire.

Thank god I went to the bar to watch the Giants clinch a playoff berth rather than travel Philly to watch this heaping pile of sh*t.

Very disappointing. I could post a crazy rant but I won't. It just a bunch of young men with a ball doing the best they can. Just a game.
Have a Doctor Pepper on me.

Most of the time the offense looks like 5 guys playing a pickup game at the Y.

Been that way since Mick left. Just a bunch of mediocre players who do nothing well. A solid Top 200 squad
