Some frustration over injuries.
Bad breakup with girlfriend.
Miscalculations by Pastner about how much dad wanted AN gone.
Overbearing, helicopter dad that exploded.

If AN had stayed the drama would have been worse.

Nothing about fat teammates? Dang.

If they talk about you and me they can talk about fat fans! Lol

Yup. I'm trying to get some of me to disappear.

RE: Another reason Nichols may have left
It should have been apparent years ago that there are serious problems with the player-coach relationships in this program. Every year there is drama and evidently bad blood that ends with highly sought players leaving.

This is one reason I’ve given up on Josh. If you cannot retain and develop new talent then you have little chance to be successful against good teams. Why?

Because this is what good teams do.

RC was sitting on a top 25 program and chased down the 3rd (4th?) assistant in the parking lot to see if he'd take the job. He's done the best he could. I can't imagine Bowen making a move like that.

No way he'd let the 2nd assistant go without at least a discussion.

pages of reasons, guesses, speculation as to why Nichols left.

Let me make this really simple, provide you all with a clear and painfully true answer as to why he really left:

Pastner is a chimp <drops mic, walks off stage left>

Pages and pages of people making smart-assed remarks because the thread is so stupid. But at least you used the drop-the-mike cliche, nobody has done that for at least 24 hours.

hey, some of us are able to say "the emperor has no clothes"...the rest of you dopes will come around sooner or later. I would think the poor performance on court, player's moms throwing a fit in social media, and half the team leaving this past off season would have woke some of you up but I guess not.

Did you mean "chump," or did you really mean a monkey? 03-lmfao

If you're going to drop the mic and exit, you really should get your last line right.

you seem to have no grasp on the situation, Tiger fans are in 3 camps:

1 - 80% know Pastner can't coach a lick
2- 19.9 % think he can't coach a lick, and hope their opinion is somehow wrong.
3- 9 vocal guys saying Pastner is a good coach who had one bad year. (half of these guys are trolling, so there are really 4 or 5 guys that think Pastner can coach.)


all are hoping that we have a really good season and he leaves,most to get rid of him and the 4 or 5 want to stick it to the ungrateful fans that don't realize what a favor boy wonder did us agreeing to take $10,000,000 from our University.

my bad....looks like I let the 9 chimps you spoke of form my entire appraisal of the situation. I apologize to the 99% of you that realize Pastner totally sucks and needs to go.

Minion implies I was stupid enough to attend Cincy, which I was not. And you took seriously a thread that no one else did, which must be an accurate reflection of your school's reading comprehension program.

But keep dropping the mike, everybody else had stopped because it was so idiotic they didn't like the abuse that came with it, and we needed a new whipping boy.

RE: Another reason Nichols may have left
"Cronin doesn't have the balls to pull off some of the crap Huggins did. Now, you may see that as him being the lesser of the two, but I see it as him just being a punk who wants to be like big bad Huggins but can't pull it off. The fact that Huggins did the crap he did, ran the program he did, let loose a reign of thugdom across Clifton, makes it no contest.

I don't hate Cronin so much as I mock him. The guy's a cartoon character. Li'l Mick with him mom sticking up for him when his team gets in a fight. I can't possibly hate that more than the thing that is BeelzeBob. Maybe he's been marginalized since he's moving more into irrelevance every day, but that doesn't distract one bit from what he has done. But I guess to each his own."

Maybe you should go Xavier board to defend your boy instead of wasting time here showing your bearcat?
