if we want to blame mick for a lack of talent through recruiting, that's fair. moore and williams look like trash, and our bigs are brutal.

i don't know what kind of sets people are expecting on offense. the guys are put in a position to make plays. if they can't make plays, that's on the players. we got basically 0 penetration off the dribble into the paint in the first half. you can't coach penetration - do we want to dump it into the foul line to the scotts of the world?
Cronin has called Moore the best pure shooter he has recruited in 12 years as UC head coach.

Can't agree more. Amazing that they had so many minutes free up with Clark, Washington, and Evans moving on and Mick couldn't land any big time players on the front line who have offensive skills.

A former UC player and coach told me during the AAc tourney last year in Orlando that Nysier Brooks would be in the NBA. I asked him if he was smoking crack. He misses more two foot shots than any player I have ever seen. And tonight he was rejected by the rim. He can't throw it into the ocean. Why hasn't he developed at all since he has been at UC?

Maybe the worst offensive team I have ever seen and definite Mick’s worst team. I put the over / under on wins at 10 games and I think that might be generous.

Very tough game to watch. Cumberland picking up his first foul away from the ball with less the 20 seconds gone in the game was a omen. His second foul was trying to stick his leg out while attempting to set a screen way far away from the basket. He has to be smarter then that. Broome was 1-10 from the field and to put his lack of defense in perspective didn't have a deflection in 28 minutes of action. Scott and Brooks for most of the evening looked hesitant and nervous. As many have pointed out Williams and Moore both look like complete swing and misses. We shot 27% from the field and 26% from 3 point range.

Really believe this is the end of our tourney run. Other then Cumberland who's game is limited as well in areas I don't see a lot of difference making talent. We have a team of role players. I hope I am wrong and some can elevate their games. My prediction is this will be a very long season. Hope I am wrong!!

Oh and while your pondering how poor Cronin's offense is we were 5-21 on lay ups in the game ncluding a missed dunk. If you want to criticize him for recruiting be my guest but his bad offensive strategy would not be nearly as glaring if our players could make bunnies.

Even Daugherty who never has too strong of an opinion on UC basketball thinks Mick has completely lost his wit.
