Played like trash. Florida isn't that good. Cats win by six.

We see this quite often in big games. It’s either lack of poise or just panicking and trying to force passes.

Mick can't do offense.

Holy **** we are bad.

When has a Cronin team ever been good at free throws?

Never. I brought it up in the Xavier thread... if I recall, the best free throw shooting Cronin team was at .708, and all but 2 were under 70%... a couple were under 65%. Just terrible at this level.

13 turnovers. Now that UC is playing real competition they have reverted back to the normal Cronin slog offense.

Neither is UC

I've seen both Jenifer and Broome stop just past the half court line multiple times and listen to Cronin screaming out directions. Just let your players play...

Yes. He just stands there and waits to get double teamed before he decides to do anything with the ball.

UC needs an athletic 7 footer with skills.

Not impressed at all with the defensive intensity on this team.

I love Gary and I consider him the best player on this team, but I wish he was more like Washington when he gets his touches. Sometimes Kyle's shots are a little wild, but he's decisive in the post. Also, Gary... dunk the freaking ball! He cost us 2 points early in the half by putting it up on the glass instead of throwing it down.

We suck. But there's no point in getting worked up until March. It will kill me otherwise.

1. PG play is not up to top 25 standards

2. Playing Broome and Jennifer together needs to end

3. I see Mick still hasn't hired an offense coach

4. 3 point line D still not very good

5. Against really good teams our inside play is really not very good

There is nothing special about this team. They are just like other Cronin teams minus good defense.

17 of 34 Florida points because we can't take care of the ball.

Terrible

We need to see who is going to step up, because gary clark is not the answer. They are doubling every time he gets it in the post and he can't get his own shot. He's also not a good enough passer out of the post so the doubles basically slow down our offense and chew up shot clock.

So does everyone else but those guys only exist for one year in college and head to the NBA. When the NBA gets rid of the one and done rule they'll be completely extinct from college basketball

Even for one year. Would be nice to get one.

That whistle was ridiculous

Pretty sure one of the refs is the one who Td Mick up a the Shootout.
Really hard o believe they couldn't have assigned a different ref.
Lucky us.

Missed Evans wide open 3 to start the half
