Did some looking around and found this on Cincinnati.com. This was before the Brannen hire but after Cronin left.
While the news was disappointing, Curtis has spoken to his Xenia High coach Kent Anderson and is expected to stay a Bearcat. "As far as I'm concerned and the way he talks, I think he's very content with staying at UC," Anderson said. "He said, 'I chose the school.' As of right now, everything I know, he's still committed to UC. They've already reached out to him. Last year with the Xavier coaching change and him decommitting and changing, they wanted to make sure they still had him which I completely understand." Also hearing Brooks has liked the latest (gobearcats) practice video on Instagram. If he gets to talking to Brannen and Scott to calm him down I think we are in good shape with him. |

Man, a lot of shitty news since that encouraging press conference. Brooks potentially leaving, and now we miss out on Jaevin...which would make one assume Jarron is leaning towards leaving. You have to wonder how this news (if it happens) would effect Curtis. I’m suddenly, albeit prematurely, very pessimistic.

I finally saw the team awards banquet info and Jenifers write up reminded me about total career wins. They might be aware of it but who knows |

It has been all hands on deck at practices lately. With only the obvious people missing in Fredericks and Curtis. That is a good sign for Brooks and the rest of the roster. The more they hang around the coach and Scott the better. Having Scott all in as a SR leader is a big deal. I would assume the players and coach are staying in touch with Curtis as well.
As a fan I think 90% (or more) of the fans have been impressed with what they know and hear from the coach so I would find it hard to believe the players are getting a different vibe but who knows. I like the way things are going so far. Haven't heard much negativity from anyone really...outside of the former Huggins players and even they have come around a bit. |

I hope Brannen can keep this team together and bring in Curtis. Looking forward to the year. The team knows how to play hard, play defense, and rebound (thanks Mick). If Brannen can make things on the offensive side of the ball easier...and more fun...this could be a special group.
I mean, a senior Cumberland is enough on his own for excitement. Renewed passion of Scott and brooks? With offensive improvement? Yes please!!! LoJo on the court? Getting after it on D, on the boards and improving playmaking and shooting? Yes please. Keith Williams with more movement on offense and pushing the ball? Yes please. |
