Xavier and Travis Steele breakup

Xavier is at best the fourth most popular school in its own city. Any coach that has had success there has left for a bigger job as a result.

BOL Musketeers. You’re gonna need it.

And the new Big East regular season champ is a 4 seed and a mere 2 point favorite over the vaunted Jackrabbits of South Dakota State. Why does any of that matter?

Impressive.

I mean your interest in UConn basketball of course. You guys were something with Oscar and Jerry back a few (hundo) years :rolleyes:

It was just Oscar.....Jerry played for OSU. Although he did play for the Cincinnati Royals of the NBA. Or maybe there's a different Jerry you were referring to?

Would guess Ohio State, which is obviously the most popular school in the state, and UK, which is just over an hour away.

Interested to see if this changes anything for Tyrell Ward. High School teammate with Jordan Hawkins and they're close according to Instagram

Did you read the post I quoted? He said most popular school in the city. Ohio State and UK are not in Cincinnati.

Yes, I did, and I am aware that the University of Kentucky is not located in Cincinnati, Ohio. I believe the original poster was not referring to schools that are literally in the city of Cincinnati, but rather schools that have large fanbases in the city. Otherwise his statement doesn't make any sense. He can weigh in for himself on that though, I suppose.

Ohio State and Kentucky fans FAR surpass Xavier fans in Cincinnati. It’s not even the same stratosphere.

I see. You meant with fans in the city, not schools based in the city. Definitely right then

This is 100% true. For every 1 Xavier fan there at least 10 Bearcats fans. The casual basketball fan in Cincy is all in on Bearcats. Even before the Big 12 announcement. After UC it would likely be Ohio State followed by a few other Big 10 schools because of grads living in Cincinnati. Xavier may honestly not even be 4th as you said

And yet we sell more tickets than UC and UConn. Interesting.

I’ll be completely honest that I would not have guessed Xavier would sell more tickets than UConn. This season I could see them selling more than UC but that definitely will not be the case very soon with a big 12 schedule. Most Bearcats fans in Cincinnati are also likely not alumni. Most of the west side of Cincinnati is Bearcats fans. Most unfortunately probably can’t afford to go to a college basketball game. Xavier’s fans are mostly alumni (again I’m guessing but only going of my personal experience)
