  1. Ran in to Jeff Goodman last night before the UC game and he had the same opinion as me. Beat Baylor and have other teams lose on the current bubble and it gets interesting. Make it to the finals and they're a lock as a 10 or 11 seed. They're currently #34 in the NET following this win.
  2. Skillings 25 pts 7 rbs... 15 pts over the final 10 mins. Kid took over this game. Newman 12 pts, 7 rbs Jizzle James 11 pts Lukosius 10 pts Thomas 8 pts Bandaogo 9 rbs Kansas really struggled against UC's size, length, and athleticism without McCullar and Dickinson. UC out-rebounded KU 49-38. Baylor up next. They beat UC by 3 on January 13th but Aziz Bandaogo did not play in that game. Will be interesting to see if UC can keep this momentum going. A win over Baylor and they're back in the bubble conversation.
  3. Big 12 has five teams in the Top 15 of the Net and 10 in the top 40. Next closest conferences are the SEC and ACC with five teams in top 40. Pretty much every road game in the Big 12 is a Quad 1 opportunity. It is the deepest conference in the country, hands down.
  4. Bearcats go on the road and get a road scalp over the 15th ranked Texas Tech Red Raiders. Pop Isaacs made a 3 with 35 seconds left to give Tech a 72-71 lead. Simas Lukosius came down the floor and made a jumper just inside the paint to give UC a 73-72 lead with 21 seconds left. Isaacs shot at the other end went off the back side of the rim, Skillings grabbed the rebound and threw it ahead to Newman for a dunk with 4 seconds left. Isaacs 3/4 heave was short and UC walked off the floor with their second top 15 road win of the season. Lukosius: 16 pts Skillings 14 pts Newman 11 Bandaogo 10 pts, 10 rbs Bearcats improve to 15-7 (4-5 B12) with Houston up next on Feb 10th.
  5. I had Cooper as my preseason #1 team that year so I have to stick to my original thought that Cooper was better in 2017. Two high level future P5 starters in college basketball- Sean McNeil and Adam Kunkel NFL caliber D1 athlete that ended up at Indiana State for football (under-recruited)- Dante Hendrix Three future D1 baseball players: Brayden Runyon, Blaine Walters, Tyler Ollier Then had Chris McNeil at point guard. Covcath was really good that year as well with CVH, Fredrick, Walter, Mayer, and Ruthsatz, but I still think Cooper had the better core.
  6. Monday's game at Kansas will mark the sixth straight game against a ranked opponent. The last time UC played six straight games against top 25 opponents was in 1993-94, while in the Great Midwest Conference
  7. Yea, NKU seats around 8 or 9k. Bigger arena without the upgrades of Baylor's new facility.
  8. Bearcats pull one out in overtime after trailing by 11 in the first half and 9 with 10 minutes to go in the second half. Had a chance to win in regulation but Dan Skillings missed both free throws with 3.5 seconds left and the score tied. Day Day Thomas led UC with 21. John Newman had 20. Bearcats improve to 13-4 with #15 Oklahoma on Saturday and then a trip to Lawrence on Monday night to play Kansas.
  9. Baylor SID told me before the game they purposely downsized to a capacity of 7500 to create a more intimate atmosphere with the fans right on top of the court. Furthest seats from the court are 60 feet closer than the furthest seats in their old Foster Center. There's still some construction going on around the arena outside but it is one of the nicer facilities I've been in.
  10. Stolen from Walter 😉 Great atmosphere Saturday night in Waco. First class facility. Looking forward to being in Lawrence Monday night for the game against Kansas.
