Season Review: Cashmere Wright
The season review series is down to the final two players. All that remains are the star players from the 2012-13 Cincinnati Bearcats. In hindsight, I feel like I should have started the series with Cashmere Wright or Sean Kilpatrick and ended it with the other. I'm saving Kilpatrick for last since he's the most important player in this series because he's the most important...
The Season is Over
Creighton defeated Cincinnati 67-63 this afternoon in the NCAA tournament. I don't really want to talk about it right now, so I'm going to say something else instead.
Thank you, Cashmere Wright. I loved watching him play. Out of all the Bearcats that have come down the line in my years of fandom, he had to be one of the toughest. He played through injury and pain every...

Cincinnati Crushed by Georgetown in Big East Finale
Cincinnati got off to a horrible start against Georgetown in today's 62-43 Big East tournament loss, and they ended the game with a terrible finish. Duh, they lost by 19 points. The Bearcats went on a run in the middle of the game to erase a 16 point deficit and take a 2 point lead. The lead didn't last long. Just like in the first meeting, Cincinnati recovered from a big...
Cincinnati 61 South Florida 53
The seniors saved senior day. Cashmere Wright, JaQuon Parker and Cheikh Mbodj scored 37 of Cincinnati's 61 points on Saturday afternoon. The Bearcats needed big performances by each in a game they tried to give away. 5/3 Arena rallied around the team as they rallied back against USF. Cincinnati needed very much to win this game to avoid an embarrassing March defeat to one of...

Banged-up Wright key to UC postseason push
LOUISVILLE, Ky. It wasnt a sight coach Mick Cronin wanted to see.

Bearcats Turn Over Losing Card in Louisville
The Bearcats turned the ball over 208 times in their 67-51 loss to Louisville tonight. Some of the turnovers were forced by the great Louisville defense. Some of the turnovers were fouls. Some of the turnovers were simply lazy passes that the Cards took the other way. All in all, Cincinnati turned it over 21 times according to ESPN and 20 according to SI. They turned it over on 34...
Cincinnati's slide reflects woes on offense
CINCINNATI (AP) -- The Bearcats are heading into the final three-game stretch of the regular season knowing exactly what they need to fix. They're having a lot of trouble scoring, and there's no easy solution.

Bearcats Embarrassed at Notre Dame
Cincinnati has never won at Notre Dame. They've lost by 17, 18 and 8. The 62-41 loss today was historical because it was the largest margin they've ever lost in South Bend. It was historical because it was the lowest point total for a Notre Dame opponent in Big East play. It was the lowest scoring game since January 29, 1993.
The Bearcats are now 19-9, 7-8 in the Big...
Breaking Down Crunch Time Shooting
Cincinnati has played a lot of close games in a row. 7 to be exact. The last time we were able to breathe easy enjoying a win was when Cincinnati topped Rutgers 68-58 one month ago. Since UC has played a lot of close games, people have been very upset with the crunch time offense.
Since I am a man of the people, and have nothing to do tonight, I thought it would interesting to...
Bearcats Shut Down by Pittsburgh
Cincinnati followed a loss to Providence where they looked horrible offensively with a loss to Pittsburgh where they looked horrible offensively. Cincinnati is 18-6, 6-5. A large, large, large part of this was because of the excellent Panther defense. There is a reason that Pitt has amazing defensive numbers. They get in your shorts and make you run offense. They go hard. I really...

Halfway through the Big East season, No. 17 Cincinnati is in solid shape. The Bearcats have their point guard closer to full strength, and they're only a game out of first place.

The Bearcats (18-4, 6-3) are tied for third at the midpoint of league play, trailing No....
