Before the regular season started, the University of Cincinnati head men’s basketball coach John Brannen said he met individually with every player on the roster to discuss their roles.
Less than one month into the season, Brannen had another round of those meetings before the Bearcats played Central Florida on Tuesday.
“One of the things that I was struggling with was that we had 10 guys who all wanted to be the guy,” Brannen said after UC lost, 75-70, to UCF. “Not a lot of difference in terms of those 10 guys.”
During UC’s first seven games of the season, everyone’s role has fluctuated.
