Sad State of Bearcat Basketball

Less than 2 days until THE CROSSTOWN SHOOTOUT and no thread or discussion on this board. Speaks loudly about the apathy of the fanbase, yours truly included. Indeed, this is the reality of the "Sad State of Bearcat Basketball"

today is football signing day - no posts

You guys bring up great points about the upcoming Crosstown Shootout!

I think back to the Huggs & Mick days, that sporting event was one of the hightlights of the year! Now it just doesn't feel the same anymore.

Last year when we won, was the first year and didn't FEEL like a Victory!

It helps to really have a skin in the game. 1 local player. Both coaches are miles apart from the true grit of the rivalry. Constant roster turnover with guys chasing the bag versus growing up wanting to play for the name on the jersey. Someone in another thread made a great point in that the rivalry really only still exists in the fans. I used to get so bent out of shape if we lost to eggs, and would be on cloud 9 if we won. Now it's just a game anymore.
