Reactions: UC Bearcats, head coach John Brannen part ways, effective immediately

The University of Cincinnati announced Friday it has parted ways with Bearcats men's basketball head coach John Brannen, effective immediately.

The decision to terminate Brannen - as The Enquirer's Keith Jenkins reports - comes two weeks after Cincinnati Director of Athletics John Cunningham announced the university was reviewing unspecified allegations related to Brannen and the men's basketball program.

UC's announcement comes one day after former Bearcats head coach Mick Cronin - named UCLA's head coach exactly two years ago - signed a two-year contract extension as the Bruins' head coach.
