*Not shown*

1) Nancy punching a child as Lance distracts him.

2) Lance fulfilling his role in the conjugal visit portion of the trip. Mick needed a stool.

3) The entire team getting rolled by 4 Six year olds on the courts behind the cafeteria.

4) Lance requesting more time in the conjugal visit trailer.

5) Several kids displaying confusion as to who Sean Kilpatrick was and why he was there.

6) Lance demanding more conjugal visit time and throwing a tantrum when he is informed that everyone is satisfied and wants to go home. It is reported that he was crying as he wiped his face off while leaving the trailer, overcome with sadness that his role was complete.

Can you post it?

[XUOWNSUC]

uc players have hearts of gold!

[RealDeal]

What is that sweater/pullover thing he's wearing? Do you get a free bowl of soup when you buy that?

[gladdenguy]

Can you post it?

My email to him or his response?

Comical.

What is even more comical is the fact that supporters of SucKS including Lance Gose and P-Doc, tolerated 15 years of malfeasance- excusing it all the while. Now when XU has, arguably a blemish- only from words- they jump all over the school.

Let's check the 20 year balance sheet shall we?

Borecats Transgressions
-Beating up Grandmothers (Dumbtonio Wingfield)
-Beating up Girlfriends (Damon Flint, Robert Whaley, BJ Grove)
-Beating up Police Horses (Art Long)
-Drug Dealing (Darnell Burton)
-Shoplifting (Eugene Land)
-Academic Fraud (Charles Williams)
-Unethical recruiting as proven by faxes (Andy Kennedy)
-Assault Arrest (3 times) (Donald Little)
-Free Condo & Car & later Nanny Rape (Ruben Patterson)
-DUI (Bobby Thuggins, Steve Logan plus a host of others)
-Zero Graduation rate (The U of Sin-sin-nati)
-Three Year NCAA Probation for Lack of Institutional Control (The U of Sin-sin-nati)

Xavier Transgressions
-Trash talking (Tu Holloway, Mark Lyons)
-Underage drinking (Dewan Rose, Pete Sears) (NCAA game suspension)

Yep. Looks equal to me.

MOR, where's the duct taping and putting out cigarettes on roommate?

[Pablo's Brother]

MOR, where's the duct taping and putting out cigarettes on roommate?

AND hitting said roomate with a weight and attempted murder?

[GoMuskies]

C'mon, one of our guys took his dog from his ex-girlfriend's house. That cancels out EVERYTHING UC's guys ever did.

Assault Arrest (3 times)- Donald Little

[RealDeal]

Forgot the guy who was carrying a gun on campus.

[X-band '01]

How can we forget former assistant coach Monte Mathis rubbing off (allegedly) in a hotel room on a road trip?

[danaandvictory]

Also, the next time Gose is discussing the Gnome of Sportsmanship, can someone ask why YTG had his guys pumping up threes like Grinnell College up 50 on Arkansas-Pine Bluff last night? Apparently running up the score works for me but not for thee.

[Muskie in dayton]

Don't forget Art Long's drug dealing conviction, even though it was before he was offered a scholarship. Oh yeah, and UC offered a scholarship to a convicted drug dealer.

To put a more positive spin on this story, I did a similar community service project while an athlete at Xavier. We took kids from the Avondale area shopping for Christmas gifts. It wasn't something that mandatory, but highly encouraged. I really didn't want to go but a lot of my teammates were going, so I kind of felt obligated, additionally I didn't have anything else to do that day. We had a relatively few number of athletes that showed up, all of them were from the non-revenue sports. Still despite not wanting to go it wound up being one of the most rewarding experiences as my time as a student-athlete at Xavier. The joy the kids had and the sincere appreciation they showed for us is something I will cherish forever.

Who really cares why they went, what their motivations were, or whether or not they forced to go, all that matters is they probably made the day, week, month, or year for a lot of those kids in the hospital. Isn't that all that should matter?

Kudos to McAlister, Cronin, the PR Company hired to repair UC's image, or whoever the hell planned the trip. Good for them.

[coasterville95]

I don't think anybody is discounting the good will performed by the UC players.

It's all a matter of timing. Somehow both schools were involved in a fight, one is getting run through the slime and the mud, and the other is coming out of this smelling like a rose. The ones getting run through the slime and the mud are getting sick of it.

Between this, and the articles by P-Doc and others that make it sound like UC "Has really come together in the aftermatch of the fight" going on and on about how before the Crosstown game they were a dijointed team, but now its the greatest UC team since the Huggins Era. based on the fact they beat a couple cupcakes by 40-50 points. P-Doc couldn't even keep a straight face with all the Pine Blush air freshener jokes he sprinkled in.

[xavierj]

Chris basically told Paul Doc to go stick his interview where the sun don't shine so I would expect Paul being the professional that he is to be even more of cock in the mouth towards Xavier from here on out.

You can't possibly be serious with this post? I dont want to put too much time into this but Jordan Crawford had a lot of issues. Lavender as well. A couple of guys robbing dogs and didnt one hold up a store with a gun or fake gun? I know one former player was convicted of murder.

X has taken numerous partial qualifiers who would have never had gone to X had they been able to get into other schools including Martin/Lyons/Robinson?

Does anyone really win this game of trying to figure out who has had worse players.

You dont need to like UC or the players but how is going to visit childrens hospital to brighten a childs day a bad thing?

Even if you think it is disingenious it is good for this kids.

[JTG]

This is just another example of how to spin things...as Gillen used to say Preception becomes Reality. If you say something long enough everyone believes it to be true. UC must have hired the best PR firm in the country...and evidently we hired the Three Stooges PR firm. It's like "Axe murderer is just misunderstood Saint" vs. "Jaywalker is known serial killer ", with us being the jaywalker and UC being the axe murderer.

[danaandvictory]

Hmmm...hadn't heard about this.

Daugherty's column on UC running up the score on UAPB today was utterly nauseating.

[UCGRAD4X]

Jordan Crawford had a lot of issues. Lavender as well.

Since when does 'having issues' (whatever that ambiguous statement means) equate with issues stated?


A couple of guys robbing dogs

One, and it was actually a dispute over ownership.


didnt one hold up a store with a gun or fake gun? I know one former player was convicted of murder

Don't know anything about this - without specifics - why make the accusation? At least we got names!


X has taken numerous partial qualifiers who would have never had gone to X had they been able to get into other schools including Martin/Lyons/Robinson?

It is unfair to compare players who were partial qualifiers because of technicalities such as bad advice from counselors or transcript issues to someone who is academically not fit for college. If that were the case, they would probably not even be 'partial' qualifiers. I hold Xavier's graduation rate as refutation to this point in your argument.


Does anyone really win this game of trying to figure out who has had worse players.

This is not something we are trying to figure out, just establishing facts.


You dont need to like UC or the players but how is going to visit childrens hospital to brighten a childs day a bad thing?

I don't think anyone is trying to say it is a bad thing. It is the reaction of the press that is the issue. Did anyone run a story about Xavier when their athletes visited?

[LyonsIsFlyin]

Yeah Lloyd Price was the player that held up a store with a track starting pistol. It's unfortunate we have to have him on our record considering we kicked him off the team before his senior year and he did this years afterwards, but fair is fair.

[larkinforever]

This is my first post on here and hopefully I don't get banned right off the bat for being a UC fan.
That said, I think you bring up an interesting point. Why is Xavier getting the brunt of this whole circumstance in the eyes of public opinion and the media? The thing to remember is that those who claim to be the moral superior are held to a higher standard. For years, right or wrong, UC has had a reputation of being thugs. Throughout this time, Xavier has professed to be the little catholic school who did everything the right way (the xavier way). Two weeks ago, the nation got to see a side of Xavier that outside of Cincinnati, Dayton, Butler (and apparently Matt Painter at Purdue), few knew existed. It's very similar to the different ways corruption or scandal are perceived between Republican and Democrat politicians. It is always a bigger deal when a Republican is caught cheating on his wife, because he is a member of a party who claims to be morally "superior". When you claim to be "better than everyone else" your faults are always going to be scrutinized more than others. Same thing with X and UC.
As a UC fan, I could care less about national perception. I'm looking for wins not role models. I'm more pissed and embarrassed about a 23 point loss than I am about the fight. The good thing for UC is that no one is even talking about a blowout loss. The brawl is the only thing that will be remembered. The brawl only solidified what people already thought about UC. Xavier is the school that hurt their reputation, and I think that is why we are seeing a bigger deal made of it in the media.

[RealDeal]

Some things never change.

Lance Gose looks like the offspring of a turtle and Mick Cronin... And the baby was punched in the face upon birth...

I just thought of something, I think Lance lives in NKY, he could be the one trolling from the Boone County Public Library.

Has anyone recently reqestered the name, ILOVELICKINGCRONINSUNDECENDEDTESTES_IWANTMORE_GIVE MEMORE_NOM_NOM_NOM

If so we have our troll.

And what exactly is "a side of Xavier" of which you speak? Trash talking during a basketball game, which, incidentally goes on in every game ever played beyond the grade school level? A player saying something in a press conference that was, while an unfortunate choice of words, was totally blown out of proportion by a biased Cincinnati media? Last time I checked, and that was 2 minutes ago, neither of those horrible transgressions A) Break any laws, B) Break any Commandments. So, X is still legal and still moral.

We won't even go to who actually stated the trash talking before the game. Nor will we wonder why the Borecat players fragile psyche was so injured by words at the end of a 23 point blowout or who actually made the first physical "hands on" move. None of the Cincinnati media seems to care about that so why should we?

Are we to put stock in Matt Painter's comments that were made to a friendly West Lafayette reporter then played up by the Cincy media? Well, I haven't heard them echoed by Jay Bilas. Most of the national media considers them to be what they are...sour grapes. Certainly Coach Painter's team NEVER says anything during a game and XU's alleged terrible talking sure didn't bother Purdue for 31 minutes of a 40 minute game because they had a 19 point lead. If Painter is so offended, I'm sure he will cancel the second game of the home and home next year to protect his and his player's delicate ears. Same goes for Kevin Stallings.

I've heard nothing of any cancellations and, me thinks, that we will not.

Bias in the Cincinnati media of coverage of the game aftermath? Well, P-Doc was certainly effusive in his praise for how the Borecats conducted themselves at their press conference, but was there any word on how well Tu conducted himself? Uh, no, because Daugherty didn't bother to show up and cover Xavier's presser. No one reported, other than Shannon Russell, that Kenny Frease reached out to Nancy Gates first, even though he was the one who was cold cocked, to put the issue behind them. Gates performance that was lauded by Daugherty, had a very evident gap- that he had no intention of apologizing to Frease. No comment on the class shown by Kenny.

Back to the point. The fawning Cincinnati media was quick to excuse all manner of horrific behavior for over 15 years when it came to Sin-sin-nati. They were just as quick to jump all over XU as soon as something didn't sit right with them. It is right and proper to point out their hypocrisy, and I have with multiple examples.

I will continue to do so.

[waggy]

UC and Mick Cronin are unlikable. And no matter how much lipstick the cincy media smears on that pig will change it.

They. Just. Suck. They suck at basketball. And they suck at life. Deal with it.

I hope the series ends cause they all die. Fuck them.
