Well at least you’re okay with comparing apples and oranges. I mean there is literally no difference between Ollie and Brannnen in terms of the situation right? Also, If Cronins players all pick up his system right away at UCLA then he was duping us all along.

Mark my word. Loveday isn’t coming to cincinnati

Mick was in on Nasir little before major schools even knew who he was.

Offering a 5 star recruit shouldn’t get you any kind of credit.

Loveday will not play a cincinnati. If he does I’ll be happy and donate a 100 bucks to charity.


And Scrubb is picking up big offers. That Won’t be an easy get.

So Cronin loses Downey, our best player and future almost all American and Brannen loses Brooks...a mediocre AAC player who can't not foul out in 20min of play and he's the worst?

Dude


Before Cronin left, every publication had us top 20

Now, with a new coach and the losses, we aren’t even in the honorable mention.

And Brooks was definitely better then mediocre, but the new thing seems to immediately downgrade the abilities of anyone who leaves our program. Brooks was arguably the 2nd best player (and definitely a top 3 player) on a top 25 team and on track to have an excellent senior season.

By the numbers... Brooks was the 2nd most important player on the floor. His on / off numbers were shocking.

We sucked when he went to the bench especially on defense.


He will be missed. I still hope he stays, he came back to cincinnati to support his teammates graduating. He didn’t have to do that. Classes are out

Well do you want to offer good players or complain about the 2 star guys who they recruited for nku?

I appreciate him trying.

But I just don’t care to consider him a real target. But I’d absolutely love to be wrong

I'm not saying Brooks was mediocre because he wasn't good. He certainly has the talent to be a really good player. But in his 3 years of playing at UC he couldn't learn how to stay on the floor for more than about 20min. That's not a top player. I'm sorry but you can't average like 20min and be considered more than mediocre. You literally only player half the game.

And if Cumberland leaves I can guarantee you none of those rankings have us in the top 25. Him leaving has nothing to do with Cronin.

Get off your knees and breath some fresh, non Mick stank, air mate.

I will continue to hold your opinion in high regard.

FWIW, J-Hub isn't blowing smoke about Loveday. I wouldn't expect us to make his final list although that would be great.

Because you are used to Cronin’s recruiting.

Might not be a realistic option, but again, can we wait more than 3 weeks?
