2023 Offseason Content

[swilsonsp4]

Nothing has been announced. There is a large backlog of cases. I saw somewhere that almost all of the second transfer applications for immediate play have been denied thus far.

Has anyone heard anything else concerning the eligibility of Aziz and Reynolds for next season?

I was right. In certain browsers ,Firefox/Brave for two ,you have to turn off the Enhanced tracking feature for the Threads site. Annoying and counterproductive if you don't like to be followed by advertisers. Oh well..

I noticed that too. Typical considering the mother ship. This platform will probably be huge though, so good to see UC with an early start.

Good to know it's just me, I guess. I think I already know why.

I am viewing these from a computer browser and not an app

(sheesh about the account deletion part)

Just a heads up. The links to Threads go to a generic splash screen on a desktop browser. Threads is currently only a mobile app as it doesn't look like they've enabled it for web viewing yet. . That'll probably change eventually. No ads on Threads for now either. The Timeline is chaotic at this point.

I also saw where if you create an account and then want to delete it, you have to delete your assocaited IG account as well to get rid of it. They're integrated.

Excellent ... looks like Simas Lukosius is representing the German National Team at some basketball event in Canada. He apparently holds dual Lithuanian and German citizenship. https://www.threads.net/@gobearcatsmbb

It appears that tweets are no longer viewable without being signed into an account, so I will no longer be linking to Twitter posts. But will keep this thread as fresh as possible.

Looks like Twitter has silently removed this restriction .

I think you are jumping to conclusions :-)

Sounds like he is taking a non-basketball/coaching job out of town (Louisville?) to be closer to family. He even said he will be back next summer to run the Wes Miller Basketball Camp. I am not sure where things stand with the Wes Miller/Mike Roberts relationship, but I think the Miller/Lepore relationship remains very solid.

Thanks for clearing that up. I was hoping that that wasn't the case, but with Roberts leaving and then Le Pore, it had the earmarks of putting one at unease. We sure don't need any discontent going into this inaugural season.

Here is the latest on coaching. Men's Basketball Unveils New Staff Structure - University of Cincinnati Athletics (gobearcats.com)

Is it being implied that LePore was let go, or am I jumping to conclusions? I was under the impression that he and Wes were inseparable coming together from UNC Greensboro.

I don't think that is the case at all. He took a private sector job and outside of that, I don't have any details. He's probably making more money than he would as a basketball operations guy.

LePore has three small kids and his wife's family is from the Louisville area. He wanted to be in a situation where he could be part of his young family. The world of college basketball is not conducive to that at this point in his life.
