We're all set now for next year.
Dribble down the court... throw it to Cumberland.

Bartender, let's make it a double now!
In my best Walken voice, Jaevin, this team needs more Cumberland!

Awesome news. Excited to see what Brannen does with Cumberland. Next year should be fun.

RE: Being Reported Jarron Will Return
If Jaevin also comes, and say we land a halfway decent center-are we better on paper than last year?

Need a pg and center for depth but probably more dangerous. The 2018-2019 Bearcats won a lot of close games and were not as good as a typical 28 win team when you looked at Kenpom or Sagarin.
Cats could lose more games and have a better computer profile and be more dangerous in the NCAA tournament if they can become more efficient on offense and defend the three better.

I think an argument could be made that we may be better with Jaevin and Jarron, Treyvon, and Keith all a year older and better.
We may have some struggles and may not win as many games since we won a lot of close games and the AAC may be better. Still I think we should return to the tournament if we have Jarron back and add Jaevin to the team.

We are better on paper than last year simply because of the coaching change.

RE: Being Reported Jarron Will Return
OK, Trevor Moore never did bolt, right? That was all just mass hysteria.
Did Logan Johnson or Nsosome ever find a new home? Not that it keeps me up at night, but until they officially sign on with someone else, they still technically play for us. Everyone was talking about Johnson being our PG but if all our offense is centered around Cumberland, I mean, how much of a "floor general" does that need??
We're all talking about just needing a center and if one walks through the door, great. However, if someone gets in there and coaches up Diarra he could possibly be as much of a contributor as Brooks was.
Lets face it, Brooks was good, not great. He was a good rim protector and rebounder, but man did he ever miss a lot of bunnies on the offensive end.

RE: Being Reported Jarron Will Return
The absence of Brooks and Nsoseme potentially opens up the lane for more drives to the hoop from Jarron or Keith. I'd still rather have had Brooks stay because he was a good player but we're a different team without a true center and maybe a more difficult team to guard. We will need more rebounding from our wings though.

I love the title of the article in "The Athletic"
"Jarron Cumberland is coming back to destroy you"
I didn't read the full article because I am too cheap to buy a full subscription. However, if they keep writing Cincinnati articles with titles like this, I just might have to pay up.

It is great. A ton of more in depth articles. He doesn't really do anything with recruiting or game threads, but he has a lot more sit down interviews with players and coaches.

This is a good point. And Cumberland is a solid rebounder for a guard, while Williams has flashed that ability too.

When I made the comment I was thinking specifically about Keith who didn't rebound nearly enough for his athleticism last year. Really wish Logan had hung around since he would have really helped on that front.

people had mass hysteria about Trevor Moore leaving? My internet must be broken.
As far as Nsoseme and Johnson. Im the opposite as you. Once they enter id say they are as good as gone and I wouldnt expect either to be apart of the team.

RE: Being Reported Jarron Will Return
I believe Logan Johnson has some family issues he is dealing with and his transferring really didn't have anything to do with the coaching change. So I think he won't be back. Hope everything works out for him.
