He’s just not a basketball player. It’s pretty simple. Seems like a nice guy though

Bruh you know they will hit 15 threes when we do this and then proceed to never make them again all year

Last years ticket resell was great. This season you can go to tonight’s game for as cheap as 0 dollars or 1 dollar. Plus 3 dollars in seller fees.

I do think the excitement around the program has faded a bit. And UC football competing for conference championship doesn’t help

I don’t think a Bearcat fan sees the football programs success as a problem. I can’t believe the lack of buzz on this board for the incredible ranked run Fick and the boys are on.

I think people get tired of losing big games in the worst ways ever. It’s been 30 years in this town and not much winning, (some at the college level). The reds, bengals, Bearcats in the tournament, etc.. Call it bandwagon or whatever but it sucks caring that much every year, and getting crushed every year.
Also, college football is rigged if you are not one of the big boys. Hard to get too excited for the cotton bowl.

This squad right here could be decent

Vogt 30 mpg Sorolla 10
Scott 32.5 mpg Davenport 7.5
Cumberland/Williams/Cumberland 30 mpg
MAW and McNeal 15 mpg

[cincrulz11]

McNeal played a lot of off-guard last night didn't he? Cumberland was running the point a lot when they were both in and MAW when he was in.



I really dislike McNeal at off-guard. I guess we don't feel like we can play defense with a lineup of

Cumberland
Williams
Cumberland
Scott
Vogt

I was busy and missed most of the game. Tried to watch on my phone, but then my battery died. Saw some pieces, but not enough to really evaluate based on play.

From the little I saw, it looked like we were hitting from 3 and doing well with the inside out game. Took advantage of Vermont's starting center being injured.

Looking at the statistics, I'm not sure how much I trust this game to reflect the future. It's hard to lose when you shoot 63% from 3. It would be great if guys continue to shoot like they did tonight, but I don't have much faith it will happen.

Biggest positive was Vogt defensively, it looked like he was actually helping on defense and being an interior presence on D. Not just following his man wherever he went. Though he did give up some 3's, but with a guy with his lack of athleticism you can't have it both ways.

Negatives, Scott and Vogt both played over 35 minutes, in a game where we led by as much as 20. That's not sustainable over the season, especially not once we get to tournament play. It might not even be sustainable over the next few weeks. Have to get the backups minutes. Brannen has been bad at giving minutes to the backups so far this season.

Nice to see Vogt get some offensive rebounds, but only 6 rebounds in total is still bad. Especially against a team missing it's starting center and playing no one taller than 6'8". I guess I just have to get used to having centers that are bad at rebounding, it's not too bad this as we have Scott to carry the load, not sure what happens next year.

I understand your comments on Vogt...when we get to the meat of the schedule he's not going to look as good as he has but the good thing is he has looked good so far rather than bad.

In terms of shooting of course we can't sustain 63% from 3 but we can't sustain games of 16% either so let's just call it a wash. Vermont shot over 50% so we can't put the win on the 3 line. We were up 20 on this team when we put some subs in and also Jarron sat a large portion of the game

I’m not a football guy. To me it’s a necessary evil to get into a better league.

I watch every UC football game. And am incredibly happy with the result, it’s just I’m a basketball first kinda guy.
