Cincinnati Bearcats (official thread)

How long should the suspensions be? Ron Artest style and they are out for the year? I'm thinking at least 10 plus games for Gates and Lyons.

Artest, Jermaine O'Neal and Stephen Jackson fought with fans, which hurt their case even more.

Some are going to call for Yancy Gates to just get kicked off the team rather than suspension. Whatever it is, it's going to extend well into Big East play (so at least 10).

I wish I could see Cronin's graduation rate versus Bob Huggins at UC (Huggins was like 20 percent).

Another thing you have to question is why Chris Mack had his starters in there with 9 seconds to go and a 23-point margin in a game where emotions were running high. Much worse result than any time Matta has kept his starters in late in a blowout.

I think Huggy strung a couple of 0% years together.

Iirc it was more than a couple.

As to whomever it was that said he'd want an OSU player kicked out of school for such behavior I'd just remind them of Robert Reynolds and suggest its not a soap box I'd climb up very high on.

He played at a couple snooty prep schools sandwiched around a year in Schenectady. Suburban thug.

After watching the highlights I'd say Holloway and Lyons should both get 1 game suspensions to cool off, Wells should get 2-3 games, the #13 on UC (player that stomped on Freeze's head) should be booted from the team immediately and Gates should get at the very minimum a 10-15 game suspension, if not just outright kicked off the team.

Being forgotten in all of this is that Frease head butted Gates two years ago and threw an open handed slap at a UC player last year that resulted in a technical foul...Frease was not suspended for either action. I'm guessing Gates took it upon himself to fire a parting salvo before he finished his Shootout career...not condoning it, but if you're going to fire one off at least make it count and he certainly did that.

what other way do you slap a cincinnati player? :huh:

I believe proper etiquette would require an open handed strike with the back of the right hand originating from the lower left hip and rising up and through the right hand side of the face of said Cincinnatti player. Immediately followed by the inquiry, " Why you holdin' out on me b*tch, how do you expect me to take care of you?" B*tches be crazy.

I was surprised it took so long for this to get mentioned. If he would have taken them out to an ovation with about 1 minute left, the whole mess might have been avoided.

Lyons and Holloway deserve more than 1 game, they were the instigators for the brawl, and their post-game comments were outrageous. I agree that #13 (the guy who stomped Frease) should be off the team for the rest of the year, and that Gates should get at least a month.

And tOSU has a valid reason to not schedule either one of those schools for at least the next 10 years.
