2026-27 College Basketball 🏀

Coach Miller had recruited Crawford while at Cincy. In fact, made very first D1 offer for the Florida hoopster. Not aware he followed up after landing in the real QC.

Anyway, nice get for new Arizona State HC Randy Bennett.

Just to be clear, James had no current affiliation with the Cincinnati program and hasn’t since he entered the transfer portal last April.

Anyway, not surprised he received a cease and desist request from UC following all of his recent Instagram posts in which he inferred that he was the team’s PG, etc.

Can’t help but be reminded of Dalonte West though I’m in no way saying James is dealing with the same thing. That said, James did apparently spend time in a treatment program while away from the Bearcats last summer + fall and would think Miller had received assurances of enough progress before he reinstated James in December.

Has to be real disheartening for Coach, especially since he’s had a relationship with James for going on 4 years now. Still, had no choice but to sever ties - yet again - and move on.

Another one-time target of Miller while at Cincy. Not aware of a Niner offer.

His dad cleared the air.

I hope JJ gets the help he needs.

Figured he had relapsed. Good to know his father is taking what seems to be a tough love approach.

Landed on his feet.

Saw someone on Twitter probably not joking about it hurting out at large chances.

Falling upwards

I said he was promised no matter how bad he did here that he would be taken care of lomg term, and will you look at that? A sweet ass senior gig in the NCAA. Who’da thunk it?

People still refuse to see it.

Yep, out of work UNC-CH grads do seem to land on their feet, whether it’s with the NCAA or UNCC.

RIP at-large bids

FWIW, this position does NOT include membership on the NCAAT selection committee.

The Big 12’s goal: 10 NCAAT bids every year.
