They should be #9!
Crazy game. Sampson looks like a genius to me. What an ending,last seven minutes were shut down and the bench show, amazing
There is almost always good help d with the Coogs. You are correct that it was a team effort.
Thanks for stopping by. Good game and that one up there is going to be crazy.
Cincy should be a top 20 team.
I mean, yeah, he got suckered into jumping early or going left instead of right a couple of times, but he always recovered well. Also I canāt really think of another player about whom we canāt say āthanks to really good help D.ā Thatās the point that Sampson has pounded into them.
For sure. Thatās why I donāt want to give all the credit for Cumberland not scoring down the stretch to one guy.
Player of the game, our layup manā¦Jarreau!
Yeah. But thatās why Iām not singling one guy out for stopping him. Itās a team defense. They battled hard the whole game. Cumberland hit a bunch of very difficult shots. Not a ton of easy ones. It wasnāt one guy.
Cumberland has one basket less than half of Cinciās points. No wonder they couldnāt score once we stopped him.
i remember 3 weeks we had people debating the jarreau wouldnāt be a starter next year for a true freshman lol
good game boys
Lot of our young guys grew up today in a March atmosphere. What a game. Headed back up 45 with great memories. Go Coogs.
Coach Sampson postgame with Branham
- we defended and rebounded, made plays
- Cincy is such a good defensive team. Neither team will look good when playing each other.
- Found a hole with Jarreau in the 2nd half as he was able to beat the switching defense
- Player of he Game: Nate Hinton. Scored 27 points on 22 shots
- Respect no team more than Cincy and Mick Cronin
- get back to practice tomorrow
- outrebounded Cincy even though Fabian and Brady didnāt get many boards. CKS says that it was the plan; wanted 4s and 5s to block out and guards to rebound. Cincy always shoots a kid down the floor on rebounds so itās 5 on 4 on the defensive boards
- Cumberland bigger than Robinson and Davis and stronger than Dejon. Had to put Nate on him as heās the only one that could play defense on him.
No. People said that freshman would be in the running for a starting role. I didnāt see anyone say he would absolutely be the starter. Just that Jarreau needed to grow his game. Still does. His decision making for a point guard isnāt always great.
Ok, Iām done. Fever has been beating me up. Was shivering in the 2nd half, but couldnāt stop watching.
All I can say is GO COOGS!
Next year could be his last year if he keeps getting better.
stay healthy pray
Cincii fans are so entitled. They are on other boards saying the refs gave us this win. Cinci had the foul discrepancy in their favor. Cinci fans just canāt believe when they lose in this conference without having excuses. It is never because they just got beat.
Stop at Buckees, you deserve it after a trip to Houston to watch you Coogs play. I remember the trips I would take back to Dallas or Killeen/Jarrell/Temple when I would watch UH play in person. So satisfying!!!
Great win and great crowd.
We held serve on our court. Still have to play at Cinci for probably the conference title. Donāt forget we host a pesky UCF at home. Long way to go. Houston jumped a huge hurdle tonight.
