Anybody who isn't tentative about mixing it up under the rim for rebounds would have been a help. You can't get rebounds when your camped around arc.

I suppose guys in the portal could still play in the Crown if they haven’t signed elsewhere. But if they declare, I don’t want them in a Bearcat uniform again. But if the seniors play they would still have enough to make 7, and since there’s NIL money, why would they not want to play?Originally posted by Lobot View PostLooks like 4 players and possibly a 5th to the portal this week. Looks like the postseason is a wash with this going on tbhLast edited by longtimefan; 03-17-2025, 01:19 AM.

Four players and possibly five? On some level I would imagine that for some of the potential UC defections, it is about NIL money. On the other hand, I would imagine that for others of the UC players, they just do not see Miller as capable of coaching a team that can win the tougher games. Despite all of the money that is being thrown around to players, all players want to play for a coach that knows how to win.Originally posted by Lobot View PostLooks like 4 players and possibly a 5th to the portal this week.

It will be interesting to see where these players end up next. Hopefully, Miller can fill these open roster spots with more capable players.Last edited by leeraymond; 03-17-2025, 01:47 AM.

He hasn't proven to be able to do that in the three years he been here. I was expecting not to be participants in the Crown tourney for the lack of player availability. I don't like being so cynical and I had high hopes for Miller when he first got here but I have not seen anything in his coaching ability to give confidence that he can turn this around.

I really hope that UC can field a team of guys that are dedicated to winning the Crown, despite the current woes of the program. Playing in the Crown can be the start of a new year with a different starting 5. You never know what the Crown experience can lead to for next season. Besides, it may give guys a chance to play significant minutes that did not play a lot this past year.Originally posted by Carthage World View PostChad said on last night's podcast that he expects us to accept an invite to the Crown sometime today and compete with a total of 7-8 players.
He did state that our status was not a foregone conclusion, however.

I am sure that many in the Crown will be facing the same situation as the Cats. Therefore, I look forward to some guys getting a chance . I just don't see a lot remaining on the team who didn't really play. It will be interesting and I am looking forward to watching.Originally posted by leeraymond View Post

Lobot you are throwing out at (4) players, possibly (5)? I think you have EVERYONE's attention! Are you assuming/predicting? Or is this for certain?
I was thinking Page and Posibbly Skillings/Griffith. If Betsy leaves along with a few surprises, this disaster if you as me!

I can tell you that Mitchell is staying. He even dropped at 5/3 Bank ad on social over the weekend.Originally posted by BearKatz View Post
My first thoughts were Page for sure, and maybe Skillings or Grffith.
Page is a definite, Skillings is extremely likely. Griffith is likely but I'm curious to see how that plays out since he seems to want to be here. Reed is likely to move on as well which people are going to be upset about I think.Brent Wyrick

Huge update. Thanks for sharing.Originally posted by Lobot View Post

That would leave us with:
Aziz
Mitchell
Simas
Day Day
Jizzle
and a bench of Betsey, Dzellat, and possibly (?) CJ Fredrick (assuming no portal players opt to compete in the tournament).
