Mick did a lot of good things for UC basketball and won a ton of games. He will be really hard to replace. I won’t miss his personality though.

Right. But why not bring in a guy who will actually contribute and bring something different?

I feel bad bringing this up but I think UC needs to tell Fredericks he should look for other opportunities. Prince and Hardnett will be eligible next year and I can’t see how Prince is worse than...

Yes I have similar concerns. USF gave us some trouble with Yetna and Durr. They outrebounded us that game and Rideau ending up going off for 26 too.

The one good thing is they aren't a very good...

I’m hoping for Purdue or Michigan and I’ve talked myself into liking a Texas Tech matchup. Waters and Naz Reid worry me. Although I guess they could be a round 1 upset possibility.

I think UC would be recruiting more 2019 guys if they thought he was going to leave. Most of their effort seems to be on 2020.

I think Cumberland will return and will play a lot of PG next year....

Best game of my lifetime. I enjoyed some of the bowl games, beating Ron Dayne and the Virginia Tech game but the way we fought back was incredible. I loved Mardy Gilyard.
