I know where there is a ledge is some of you want to start jumping. I won't push you, but I'll loosen up some of the rocks to help facilitate your demise.

Well, what looked like was going to be a great day for Cyclone sports ended up being a big ole kick in the balls. Tough losses for both squads. Sucks to have been so close to 7-5 in FB and (maybe) being ranked in the top 25 in BB.

I like that Hoiberg lets his players play through mistakes..but I really wish he would set Luscious' *** on the bench for extended periods of time when he consistently makes stupid plays..i just don't understand how you can have that low of a basketball IQ. I thought Chris Allen was bad...

Free throws and turnovers by Lucious was the straw the broke the camels back for us!! Give the bearcats credit, they are a heck of a team. Kilpatrick goes 16/16 from the freethrow line! And then we have Georges Niang that went 0/6 at the line.

Coach Hoiberg is an amazing coach, but I don't understand why he didn't insert Naz Long in the lineup when Korie Lucious was making bone head plays at critical points in the game!!

True point guard my ***.... he's the worst decision maker on the team, he doesn't run the offense at all... hopefully hoiberg makes him understand his job as the point guard better fast...

I'm just saying that he's been advertised as a true PG all offseason. So far that has been proven to not be true

I have to say that this "tournament" has an NCAA tournament feel to it. Good basketball being played in Las Vegas this weekend. Cincinatti's coach said it himself, all 4 teams seem like tournament teams.

NCAA tourney feel, minus the fact that their was maybe 50 people in the arena. Not sure if you watched it but it looked like an open scrimmage there was NOBODY there.

I meant the actual basketball being played, not butts in the seats.
