Cincinnati won as an unranked team on the road vs. a top-10 opponent today.

The last time it did that was Jan. 4, 1990 at No. 8 Louisville, per CBS Sports research.

I hope Tillery stays regardless of what happens to Miller. But I doubt that he does. That may be the thing that keeps Miller here, to keep Tillery. But I think Abaev is gone already.

I meant to mention that, but my main point was JJ has killed us late in games with bad shot selection.

I am glad CWM was forced to play Tillery. A you wrote, James has killed UC late in games. Tillery played pretty solid save some growing pain mistakes. But, he is getting better and the team play flows so much better when he is in.

During the halftime show of the Houston game, the announcers said that it was the largest loss by Kansas to an unranked team since 1973. Here is some news with video.

Speaking of Houston, they are getting smoked in the first half against Arizona. Number 2 against number 4.

James had 4 fouls. It was necessary for Tillery to play.

What stands out to me is that Tillery was in for the last 5-6 minutes, while JJ was on the bench. We’ve been losing games late with JJ jacking up bad shots. I hope Tillery starts getting more time than JJ.

Chiam won’t be back next season. If he doesn’t declare for the draft, he’ll be offered big money by schools with unlimited NIL $.

I really like Tillery. He’s seeing more PT down the stretch. Lots of potential for further improvement.

The conference numbers do not favor UC in this one. Also, Miller against the Hall of Fame coach Bill Self suggests an outcome where Kansas comes out on top. UC is 1-5 on the road in the conference and KU is undefeated at home in conference play. You connect the dots for yourself.

Every once in a while, the stats do not mean anything. What are the chances that UC would beat #8 Kansas at home today? I totally got this one wrong today. I am glad I was wrong.

This was a classic trap game for KU. It appears that KU overlooked UC because it plays Houston on Monday. UC hit big shot after big shot late in the second half to get a 16 (sixteen) point win on the road. Four games left to play on the regular season. If UC finishes with a winning record in conference play is that enough to keep Miller?

I know the administrators at UC are wondering what the @#&% is going on with this team now. With every additional UC win, their decision to keep or git rid of Miller becomes that more difficult. On the other hand, it could be highly possible that the UC administrators have already made up their minds concerning what they are going to do with Miller.

By the way, this is Coach Miller's FIRST conference four (4) game winning streak since he has been the UC coach.

Not only was this a HUGE win, but we played GREAT the entire game! Hard to tell where this came from. According to the announcers, this was the largest margin of victory against Kansas on their homecourt in Bill Self's time there - and that's a long time and they've played a lot of good teams. Hope it's not too late to string together some wins and get to the dance.

Wes Miller popping out of a coffin: we’re not dead yet!
