waterhead is on a distinguished road
Cincrulz11 brought this up a little while back. In 2020 the Bearcats are ranked #18 on T-rank. Houston is #8. Tulsa was at #14 a couple of games ago but are now 41st and several teams in the AAC in the 70's. We managed to beat the class of the AAC (so far) in our house.

We are playing very good basketball this year (2020). We are playing like a ranked team at the right time. Outside of 1 or 2 early speed bumps this is what most of us wanted...trending in the right direction come tourney time.

The main problem right now IMO is our rotation is shrinking rather than expanding. We got a clunker at Uconn out of Diara, McNeal, Mika and Harvey. We are going to get tired if that continues. Diara has been inconsistent. Mcneal has been pretty bad all year. MAW isn't aggressive on offense anymore and fouls too much on D which puts teams in the bonus earlier than we would like. Harvey went from a good game vs Houston back to being a non factor in the next two games.
