Cincinnati basketball

[Tenspro2002]

FWIW, Cincy just signed its first '21 commit, forward Bryson Spell whose other offers are Virginia Tech, GW, Elon and Old Dominion. Interesting timing.

That offer list is...not great.

Looks like a regional recruit who VT was throwing a bone but probably wasn't all that interested in.

If Frank Martin desperately wanted to coach at Cincinnati a couple years ago why did you guys hire John Brannen?

the interest was more on his side than ours. i didn't think he was the answer then and I don't think he's the answer now. his resume out of 1 blip year where he had some dudes get hot in the tournament is...uh not good. His success at Kansas State is a distant memory at this point.

They are finding cause.

They are finding cause.

Or "will" find cause.

Yup sounds like a way to fire him with cause... or force him to resign with a lowered buyout.

It’s a college basketball team.

Parents get good seats, but they’re not needed to help out with the cooking.

What the heck is this? The parents are whining because they can't bring orange slices and sit with the team? It's a pandemic, this would be stupid even without the pandemic.

Isn't this essentially what happened with us after 2014? lol

Maybe if South Carolina was a year removed from being relegated to a mid major conference based outside of their region.

Agree - that was one of the dumbest things I’ve ever read.

I’m really sorry that the coaching staff at Cincy has thwarted the potluck dinners.

Monsters.

Agree on the ridiculous home cooking demands but I'd like to know more about the coach who doesn't talk to the kids outside the court.

I’ve gotta ask, when did college basketball players start wanting their parents around all the time? Sounds like a middle school travel soccer team.
