New University President Nancy Zimpher forced Cincinnati Mens Basketball Coach out. These University President’s do not understand the impact of athletics on their schools. Without Coach Huggins and a successful basketball program how many Cincinnati Bearcat apparel would have been sold and portion of the royalty retained by the university. How many high school graduates looked at Cincinnati as a University because of the successful basketball program. It brought a positive influence on the University.
This President is about as smart as Pete Boone, the illegitimate athletic director at Ole Miss that replaced David Cutcliffe with Ed whatever his name is. The same Ed that participated in barroom brawls in Miami. The same Ed that had domestic violence charges brought against him.
My question to President Zimpher, Who are you going to replace Coach Huggins with? The best thing for you to do is not to make these young men suffer, dismantle the basketball program today. The sports fans in the Cincinnati area have Louisville and Kentucky to pull for.
