Re: Bearcats win

[Dan Marshall]

More of the enquirer with some lame writing....

""It's a big relief," said UC senior forward Cedric McGowan, who, along with
Ron Allen, was playing his last game as a Bearcat."

Hmmmm... Are they not going to the WVU game.

I saw that quote from Mick.  But, at this point in the season, the players
have learned all they are going to learn.  It's not time to teach lessons
about technicals.  His team needed a win.  And by exhausting Sikes and
McGowan to the point where they could no longer walk, he nearly cost his
team the win, in my opinion.

technical, at least that is what Mick says. Supposedly technicals by players
are big no-nos. Maybe he's just saying that, or maybe anyone would have
sat....who knows.
