Well I'm finally starting a blog thanks to pressure from several people, thanks Dad. Unfortunately I am starting out with ranting about my Cincinnati Bearcat basketball team.
I'm sick of hearing excuses from Mick Cronin.
"Mike Williams will help us tremendously. "
"The loss of Cashmere really hurt, he'll help out when he's healthy."
"Once Ibrihiama Thomas is eligible."
B.S.
No Mick, once you learn how to coach, or once you leave...that's when Cincinnati Basketball will be back. Maybe this team needs to go old school and be banned from the locker-room or something. Last night I saw a team lose that was up three with thirty seconds left, and they had the ball! I saw a team that had more turnovers (21) than combined free throws (10) and three pointers made (0.) Pathetic.
This Saturday's game against the Coach Stealing Catholic School, Nodre Lame is a MUST WIN. It's a must win this team wants to make the NCAA Tourney and it's a must win if Mick Cronin wants to keep his job.
That is the Truth.
If they don't pull out Yancy in the first half because of his 2 fouls two things happen:
ReplyDelete1. He doesn't pick up a third foul
2. They lead by 20 at the half.
Urkel is a year away from being effective, ACLs take two years. But that is beside the point, they have talent but not talent that can play well together. Wright, Stephenson, and Vaughn are all very ineffective without the ball and can't play together. I think Mick needs to take Thad Matta's recruiting strategy and recruit guys who AAU teammates, so they have some report with each other.
Rashad Bishop needs to work on inbounds plays.
Fire Mick. Hire Carl Kramer.
