There's no way the big tournaments haven't reached out to Cincinnati. They want the big name programs from the top 8 conferences. Mick has to be turning them down.
I don't like it or get it...
Yeah I have no clue what the issue is to be honest...

SMU: No word on any early season tourney and no word on any quality OOC home & homes.
We suck right now.

We need to get ourselves into a position where we have a team in Maui every year.

Thanks for posting, that would be an exciting field but also one UCF could win if healthy.

Our field appears to be relatively weak, which is something we probably need going into next year.
We could have nearly half the Big 12 (Baylor for sure, OU and OSU as likely, and possible KSU) on our Non-Con so a weaker tourney is definitely not the worst thing.

I think the fan support helps the shockers get in to many of the bigger tournaments. We bring in a lot of money for them. :)

It can be a revenge game from 1985!
I'm pretty sure we got revenge in 2003 and again in 2004.
2003 was Billy Richmond's buzzer beater and then shouting "I'M DA BOMB" on national television.

Speak for yourself.... Cuse's defense was Top 10. Our offense sucked.
Help is arriving as sanctions are almost over....back to the Top 10 soon.
I bought my tickets to MSG already for November. I bet we match up at 9pm on Thursday.

Nice campus and a nice little arena. Tulsa played there last year. Food choices at the arena are pretty limited and no bags or backpacks allowed but a jacket with kangaroo pockets can work wonders.

RE: 2018-2019 Preseason Basketball Tournaments
rumor is tulsa is in the second bracket of the Las Vegas Invitational and will play Nevada
https://www.rgj.com/story/sports/college...489205002/
the first bracket is ucla, texas, unc, michigan state.... no clue who else is n the in the second bracket besides tulsa and nevada..
normally second brackets are trash, but if Nevada brings back the twins (who declared w/ no agent) theyll be top 10

Elijah Hughes showed flashes at ECU. He looks like he might end up being a good player if he stays healthy.

Agreed getting a stress fracture on your foot before the season's first game was a killer. If he has the foot speed to cover in the zone I can see him starting next year if Tyus Battle declares for the NBA.

I also bet that we put at least 17,000 in attendance no matter how or good or bad our teams are.

It's just not a smart idea for UC to play in a tournament that's more than 2 rounds...
What's there not to get?
