Good job reading numbers.

Did you happen to read how many tier 1 opportunities we had last year?

How about tier 1 wins ?

I could go on but I won’t.


Just win the conference tourney and I’ll be a happy camper.


I mean if this team goes to the sweet 16, I’ll be insanely happy. I’ll get JB’s initials tattooed on me buttock mate

We have a lot of fans on this very board who are “fans” and don’t spend a dollar on the program.


But every game was pretty much a sell out last year. So...


And Colgate doesn’t move the fan needle at all. It’s just a tier 3 game that doesn’t help your resume. Doesn’t excite fans and also can hurt you if you lose.


Add in that, the budget has been super tight for buy games for years. Brannen’s lower cost allowed them to open the wallet up

One team had a safely in resume and one doesn’t.
One of these lists includes the postseason and one doesn't.

Adjusted to accurately compare YTD vs. YTD:

This years team: 30 games to date
Quad 1: 2-6
Quad 2: 7-0
Quad 3: 9-4
Quad 4: 2-0

Last years team: 32 games to date

Q3: 9-0
Q4: 6-1

*Last year's team had 2 more games.
**This years team has a chance to add 2 more Q1 wins and 1 Q3 win before selection Sunday. Not saying it will happen, but please don't skew the stats to fit your narrative.

I didn’t skew anything.

I just googled 2019 UC team sheet and this came up

"Cha cha cha" And yes I did quote that Beavis and Butthead quote once before on here which shows you my maturity level!

For someone who argues every point, seems hard to imagine you overlooked that glaring detail.

So essentially what your saying is... no matter happens in the tourney, the Bearcats of today can’t match nor exceed the resume from last season ?


This is the very reason why I’d rather finish 2nd with an at large bid sewn up then to finish tied with 3 teams for first and still on the bubble

Just win The next 2 games and remove all doubt.


Pretty simple.

Or would you want to give up a conference championship in order to win a couple games in the big one. There is no right or wrong, just curious about what people like more.
I don’t think that is even a question. Sweet 16 is way better in every respect including the fact that you close the season ranked in the top 20 - big time recruiting tool.
