Cincy player makes the dumbest move...

[PhiTauCard]

Forward for Cincy must have lost his mind for a split second. Purdue shoots a 3 and the Cincy player, who was already in perfect block out position, turns to the Purdue player that he was going to block out and throws a forearm shiver right to the Purdue player's throat. It happened directly in front of the baseline ref who immediately called a flagrant 2 shot foul. Cincy kid was thrown out of the game and was in tears from embarrassment. Was a two point game at that point. Probably cost Cincy the game. Absolutely inexcusable what the Cincy kid did.

Anyone know if that player can play the next game if Cincy wins or does he have to sit a game?

He can play. No carry over.

Go Cards!

Crazy OT...Go Bearcats!

That overtime was insane. They both missed a ton of lay-ups and point blank shots. The shot the Cincy kid made to force overtime defied gravity.

Cincy has always been thugU! Par for the course. A couple cheap shots like that, that aren't so noticeable, could get uk out of their game and allow Cincy to hang for a while. But that still won't help them win the game. They have no chance!

I read where it was his 3rd ejection of the year.

I agree. UC has very little chance of beating UofK. I could see the Thug play from the Bearcats but in the end, it won't matter. UofK has way too much talent to allow a bunch of thug players beat them. It won't happen.
