Magic Number
I was reading this article on the Kennesaw State game today and I came across an interesting stat-"Since the start of the 2010-11 season, the Bearcats are 46-2 when scoring at least 70 points." (http://www.gobearcats.com/sports/m-b...112713aab.html) Defense isn't the problem with any UC team under Mick, we must continue to score. It is my big concern once conference play starts, and it is why I think we really need Jamaree Strickland. I just found an article on Strickland from last year that I don't remember being posted on here. It also has a nice write up on Deshaun Morman:http://p29.rivals.sports.sp1.yahoo.n...473913&SID=945

I agree I think we need Jamaree for this season, but also we will need him to have the year of experience for next year. We will be losing our 2 centers and I think a year of play will help him out tremendously with playing time next to DeBerry. I don't see Mick ever playing those 2 guys at the same time with how much we run and their size.

After beating Marquette in OT 71-69 on January 19th. Cincinnati didn't score 70 points the rest of the season.
During that stretch of 15 games, Cincinnati did not allow 70 points in a regulation game (gave up 73 in OT to UConn). Those numbers are MIND BLOWINGLY BAD. |

I really don't think Jamaree would help much this season. Hopefully he can get some good practice in and contribute some next season.

If anything, some depth in the event JJ gets into foul trouble would be helpful. You'd have to think he could at least match big Dave's numbers.

Big Dave is useless. He has a vertical jump of zero, hands are greased and all he knows how to do is run to the high post and set a pick. Sad, but true. There's more to being big than being tall. So anybody with even a little mobility would be a good backup.
