Not sure if he did an official PC, kind of hate his attitude.

I don't feel like there is much they could have done differently. They just couldn't finish. We've been there.

I'd expect a veteran coach like him to not throw his kids under the bus, no matter how heartbreaking a loss like that might be for them.

He did throw the refs under the bus though.

That had to be tough for him to lose with a 7 point lead and less than 4 minutes left.

I was worried he was going to pop another blood vessel.

I really like that guy too. Cincy is lucky to have him.

I will say there was a noticeable difference between the way SMU defended guys in the lane and the way Cinci did. Our guys were always moving their feet to stay in front of their man and then going hands straight up body on body no jump. Cinci was flat footed and were jumping and reaching out to contest our shots. Pretty good example to show what were points of emphasis from the referees.

He's perfect for the league and very well respected, including by LB. We need more Cronins in the AAC.

He thinks Cinci got hosed by the officials.

If it was the other way around id want and expect our coach to be pissed at the FT discrepancy too, right or wrong. I also wouldn't expect him to outright name players and situations where he's tossing them under the bus. I'd also fully expect the lip service of "Well [the opponent] had something to do with that too" or whatever.

That said, reading their message board it almost sounds like he's better than they deserve
