Time for Mick to go. It’s long past time, actually.

Mick Cronin’s struggles in the postseason have been beyond frustrating.
However, I tend to agree with the position of the grass isn’t always greener. Cincy isn’t a desirable school for recruits/coaches. If they did fire Mick, or he decides to move on, I could easily see the Bearcats going from a a perennial tourney team and AAC contender to an aboslute doormat.
Barring a shit hire, you guys shouldn't ever be absolute doormats. You have enough talent in the tristate/Dayton area for that, but it probably will be difficult to compete for the top recruits until you get into a major conference.Mick Cronin’s struggles in the postseason have been beyond frustrating.

It's all about the talent. There isn't any reason for a talented kid to play at UC. They play in a crappy conference..... They're basically bound to go the way of UCONN. Another former powerhouse that will never be relevant again. Only, UCONN has a much greater history of success than we do.
I think Mick is a good coach. I think he's getting all he can out of the situation he is in.... It might be time for him to go, but I can't see us getting much better with a new guy.

I can't agree with this. UConn has sunk since the Big East - UC has maintained (or improved - at least during the regular season) since the Big East.
Kevin Ollie was a huge flop at UConn - they actually recruited well - he just couldn't coach.
Agreed!I wasn't clear... I was basically saying that what Mick has done has been very good. They haven't fallen off the way UCONN has. I think they will if they start getting on the new coach every couple of years carousel.
