Re: Bearcats win

[pete lyness]

Tom,
Once again, I like both coaches and wish them both
success. But I have been forced to point out their
flaws because of ignorant basketball fans that point
to their success this year relative to Cronin and the
Bearcats. There are people on this forum that point to
Kennedy and Huggins record and say "see I told you
they are better coaches" (figuratively). Which is
completely ridiculous! Give Cronin their same teams
and you wouldn't see more than a 1 or 2 game
difference(+ or -). Hell, put the Bearcats in the SEC
West and I'd say they get at least 4 wins.
