Mick Cronin said ALL the right things postgame. He did not mince words. Been a Xavier fan since the 80s with Pete Gillen, Byron Larkin and Tyrone Hill, but I lost a lot of respect for Chris Mack with his postgame comments.
Bruh...are you really responding to a seven year old comment about a regular season game that happened almost a decade ago? And did you think I was a Cincinnati fan? I don’t give a shit about either of these teams. That press conference was pure idiocy, that’s why I commented. “Who won?” Not you. Consider getting some new hobbies.
@omtomt8787 i know dude thats the way some ppl talk....there are white ppl who talk like that too...there are also black and white hillbillies....it dont matter dude its just a culture who cares how they talk
haha that coach is blowin smoke out his ass. if he had actually established the expectations of how they were going to act this wouldnt of happened. ive been swung at. pushed, called every name in the fuckin book by the players and some of the crowds and all i do is laugh at the players and shush the crowd cause my coach has built the team on charactor.
So the big black decides to throw his punch not at the four other black players on xaviers team who are fighting, but the white guy trying to break it up.
The Xavier player, "lyons" talks and acts like he is the leader of a gang. How sad that he can be watched by young children, who one day want to play ball, who might want to behave like him. He should be removed from the team, for now and, hopefully he will realize how he looks and sounds and change.These guys are supposed to be examples to the youth.
I saw nothing wrong with Tu Holloway’s comments. I hate the fact that people tried to use this one spectacle to tarnish his legacy. Anyone who has ever competed understands that his words came from the heart. You can’t bottle passion.
Usually when young black players are called thugs, it’s said by unathletic, butthurt boys. I challenge any one of you who said thug to post a pic of you, your girl, your life. I’m predicting it’s kinda soggy.
that cincy coach is a joke...all that tough talk about ripping off jerseys and being on the team and he suspends them 6 games....i guess he needs them for conference play becaus thats what the university is all about...SMH
@Reyrocksall NO! Disgusting. Don't go there unless you are prepared to deal with the attacks against YOU for posting a racist comment that go along with it. You bring up that word, you deal with the consequences.
@Jeffersonwazright white ppl dont do it cuz they are either on the bench or the practice team cuz 95% of the time they not nearly as good...except for hockey but i dont understand that rule at all
The whole entire fight was unecessary. Both teams should not have been fighting at all. Just because they were talking bad about you doesn't mean that you should fight. Especially in a basketball game. Not only that, these guys all have basketball scohlarships. For them to be fighting makes no sense to me. They know the reprecussions of their actions but they still fight anyways. I say player who was involved in the fight should not play for the rest of the season.
It looked like Xavier started the final brawl even though Cincinnati and Yancy Gates acted terrible. I like the response from cincy coach though, very straightforward in making his team responsible for their involvement
Get your facts straight, Tu Holloway was running his mouth the entire game going up and down the bench, and the Xavier player pushed the UC player first. Oh and Mick Cronin was pure class after this game. Chris Mack I lost a lot of respect for him allowing those players to go run their mouths at a press conference after the game.
@SenjiBPD No joke! You can't use being a "gangsta" as an excuse. If you're going to represent your school and get your tuition paid for you better play the game and respect everyone else playing the game
@macklr21 wtf? Why waste my time talking about them? Because they were involved in the fight and in this video otherwise I wouldent ever talk about them and never have so stop trying to stick up for Cincinatti and restating one of the top comments for your own lmao.
University=higher education NOT. If you listen to these comments from Students first and players second you would have a hard time thinking they were part of higher education. I mean these are supposed to be Students going to University acting like a bunch of thugs. A total mess, the two teams should be dismissed from basketball for the rest of the year. Period.
How does a nice private Jesuit school let these gangstas in? Never mind they're probably from the neighborhood of the school. Blame Cincy for starting it.
Cmon guys the fight was ridiculous and everything but put urself in their shoes. Are u gunna let a huge guy like yancy gates pound ur face in or r u gunna fight back? The Cincy coach HAD to make those comments, or he wulda been fired ASAP. Say wat u want but Im not lettin ppl beat me up. If youve ever played real basketball, u kno ur supposed to have ur teammates back and u cant sit there while they get beat up. Best thing to do is say ur apologies, take the suspension and move on
@TheChum12 what do you mean what do I mean? exactly what I said played ball as in playing basketball come on now you are just making yourself look like you dont know anything about bball.
Whenever there's a black man beating up a white man there will be a race war in the comment thread lol smh. I was watching other basketball fights where there weren't any racism in the comments, but when I come to this one it's a different world lol
chris mack is a thug...i was young but there was a game between dayton-xavier at UD in the early 90s I think when mack twice threw an inbounds pass at the face of the UD center (Wes something I forget his last name). I think he was eventually called for a technical. A thug is a thug no matter how many years later
@MrCrupac what? i am white your right...but im sittin here standing up for black ppl cuz its so ignorant of these white ppl to talk like that.....idk what you trippin on man you need to re-read what i said...idk what you pissed about i dont even get your comment
In the end if these guys wanted to box they should've gone out for the Boxing team and not Basketball. Xarvier beat them bad and they could not win on the court so start a fight because of a weak game on the court. That's DetroiT Piston back in the Day Crap. Cinn just got Punked during the game, fight or not they sucked at Basketball.
the xavier player at the end made sense the fans an schools created the intense rivarly environment between xavier an uc all the players hear all weak in school is that you better beat uc/xavier we hate them etc... etc..
I'm glad that both teams have bounced back to play quite well after this incident. XU is 12 - 5. UC is 14 - 4 as of 1/18/12. Those of you who are non-athletes simply don't understand how it is to play in a rivalry game like this. That doesn't excuse the actions of any of those guys, but I do know what it is like to play in a game like that. It's pressure on the players. It's disrespect from players AND fans. It's overhyped as the biggest game of the year. Some can handle it. Some can't.
@Milesb69 Exactly. While I hate the ACC (though I went to school there for both undergrad and grad degrees), the blood on Tyler Hansborough's face while playing Duke is a lasting image.
Not only is the brawl just upsetting, but the fact that Chris Mack let those thugs go out after the game and even talk was apalling. They should have only come out to apologize. Hell they shouldn't have come out at all. The only one who handled it correctly was Mick Cronin. Such a disgrace to both schools.
That's just brutal. People have to learn to exercise some self control. What does any of that accomplish? What's the point? Fighting for nothing. Human beings just make me sick sometimes.
Alright, about the paid thing: I do think they should be getting some sort of allowances and at least getting to give their families tickets to games, but they shouldn't be paid. They're in college. Yes, they put a lot of hard work into it, which is why they should get an allowance, but not the big cheese that the NBA players are making. And they won't be getting paid anytime soon if players like Anthony Davis keep being One and dones, that doesn't help your case.
All the kids directly involved in that shit should have their scholarships removed, so they can realize that they literally made the biggest mistake of their lives...completely uncalled for
UC coach said it best that these players really don't know how lucky they are to be going to college for free and playing a sport that they love.there are millions of high school athletes all across the country that would do damn near anything to be like these players and play college sports.its a shame to see these very fortunate athletes to do something so stupid and be a thug and fight the team they play.i say pull some scholarships and then these guys for UC can see how lucky they are
0:54 I am glad the basketball was able to escape the fight unharmed
He Was Like "Fake Ass Nigga" lol (Blurred Part)
Well said coach... Well said. There comes a time in a every young mans life when it becomes time to act like a young man and not a kid.
i wanna go to xaiver but after this idk
@Skrangelben You can say this on the internet but you wont say it to their face tho... lol
"We're grown men over here. We got a whole buncha gangstas in the locker room, not thugs, but tough guys on the court."
Great fucking quote
All time quote
Mick is ALL talk. Empty promises. Nobody got kicked off the team.
@TehReplica
Did you realize this is basketball and not the "Rape your cousin at the family reunion game" you're thinking of?
The greatest quote ever by a college athlete
Whats funny is Yancy Gates would beat Mark Lyons down
@MrBuddynoi No, they shouldn't be dismissed at all. This is entertaining.
I dont know about anyone else but if i didn't throw a punch, then the coach is NOT TAKING a jersey that i Earned
Thug? What makes him a thug? Cause he's black and throws a punch? Like people in soccer & baseball doesn't have fights, you people kill me.
Soccer?
the funniest part is the white guy tryin to stay cleans ends up getting hurt
Mick Cronin said ALL the right things postgame. He did not mince words. Been a Xavier fan since the 80s with Pete Gillen, Byron Larkin and Tyrone Hill, but I lost a lot of respect for Chris Mack with his postgame comments.
Stomping on a fallen player? Are you kidding me?
"Yeah! Kick him while he's down!"
Despicable.
yeah right, these guys will get a slap on the wrist and will be back for the conference tournament
Hey thats mark lyons for you
Bet he didn't touch Gate's jersey lol
The starting five from Cincinnati disliked this
phew. Gangstas, not thugs. Thanks for clarifying.
lol. just what i was thinking!
Tupac explained the difference but you choose to be misinformed
I think being a thug would be a step up almost.
Lol who won
Bruh...are you really responding to a seven year old comment about a regular season game that happened almost a decade ago? And did you think I was a Cincinnati fan? I don’t give a shit about either of these teams. That press conference was pure idiocy, that’s why I commented. “Who won?” Not you. Consider getting some new hobbies.
I feel like if you are d1 and not ranked you have absolutley no room for talking shit smh.
Dudez from Xavier got dey asses beat. Point blank. Cincy may have lost tha game but dey won da fight. Xavier dudes tain shyt like dey did sumthin.
physically took them off? Is this about to be another scandal?
Cincy #14 Guyn should probably not start trash talking from the bench. That just doesn't look good
"Some of them, I physically took them off"!! Great job coach!
Cause nothing says "Keep your cool and don't get in physical altercations" like losing your cool and physically removing a jersey.
Same guy who tried to fight a player a few years later
@@mcgiver1327which okayerv
@omtomt8787 i know dude thats the way some ppl talk....there are white ppl who talk like that too...there are also black and white hillbillies....it dont matter dude its just a culture who cares how they talk
@TheChenza05 Dude... Xaviers Halloway only 1 game? Lyons 2 games? Freise no games? They all should be 5-8 games. And you say Cincy is a joke??? WOW
@GladGanjaGabber Obviously not on English.
haha that coach is blowin smoke out his ass. if he had actually established the expectations of how they were going to act this wouldnt of happened. ive been swung at. pushed, called every name in the fuckin book by the players and some of the crowds and all i do is laugh at the players and shush the crowd cause my coach has built the team on charactor.

RGIII won the Heisman
@al40ful Probably because fighting is actually a vital part of the game of hockey. Its strategy within the rules.
This is just completely horrible, both teams should be suspended, especially Gates and Holiway
The Xavier player, "lyons" talks and acts like he is the leader of a gang. How sad that he can be watched by young children, who one day want to play ball, who might want to behave like him.

Funny Mark Lyons sooke on Yance Gates name like that but in the video he was clearly being a peace maker towards Yance Lol very hypocritical sir
@Jeffersonwazright white ppl dont do it cuz they are either on the bench or the practice team cuz 95% of the time they not nearly as good...except for hockey but i dont understand that rule at all

You sound the like the kind of person who would let someone spit in your mothers face and walk away. Fighting should be in every sport.

i cant believe there are so many racist ppl still its incredible for real..... i dont understand
@Youngd2007 the ppl that are talkin down to the teams are the ppl that start shit and then press charges when they get beat up
@SenjiBPD No joke! You can't use being a "gangsta" as an excuse. If you're going to represent your school and get your tuition paid for you better play the game and respect everyone else playing the game
I played soccer for X, and would never act like that. This comment is ignorant.
@macklr21 wtf? Why waste my time talking about them? Because they were involved in the fight and in this video otherwise I wouldent ever talk about them and never have so stop trying to stick up for Cincinatti and restating one of the top comments for your own lmao.
Any UK Wildcat talking crap like you hear at 1:50 would be off the team for it. In fact Cal would grab him by the collar and drag him off camera.
+j miller Haha, this is Cincinnati man. Nuff said.
University=higher education NOT. If you listen to these comments from Students first and players second you would have a hard time thinking they were part of higher education. I mean these are supposed to be Students going to University acting like a bunch of thugs.
A total mess, the two teams should be dismissed from basketball for the rest of the year. Period.
Sure don't act like grown men!!!
It's funny because after this, UC, my boys, went like 7-0, and Xavier, uh, didn't. Can't wait for the rematch. No punches this time I hope.
How does a nice private Jesuit school let these gangstas in? Never mind they're probably from the neighborhood of the school. Blame Cincy for starting it.
Cmon guys the fight was ridiculous and everything but put urself in their shoes. Are u gunna let a huge guy like yancy gates pound ur face in or r u gunna fight back?

@KingKyleTheStarChild Then stay there, you want to go to university? then get with the program.
All of this started because of a message on twitter ?
Xavier got their NIT invites "Zipped Up" last night.
I think he earned the "N" word. Acting like what gave them the word.
@fluffynoses grow up. I have black friends who act nothing like this.
is that aaron williams at 2:15 in the brown suit?
@TheChum12 what do you mean what do I mean? exactly what I said played ball as in playing basketball come on now you are just making yourself look like you dont know anything about bball.
and if there were more fights in sports id watch em all
Whenever there's a black man beating up a white man there will be a race war in the comment thread lol smh. I was watching other basketball fights where there weren't any racism in the comments, but when I come to this one it's a different world lol
ZIP EM UP
The Cincy coach is the only one with sense out of everybody, clap for him.
chris mack is a thug...i was young but there was a game between dayton-xavier at UD in the early 90s I think when mack twice threw an inbounds pass at the face of the UD center (Wes something I forget his last name).

Anybody dreaming of a Xavier Cinci final?
One more reason to luv college bball
Ykk zipper.
lol at how dude was crawling at 0:57-0:59
Not sure why school bus brawl is in the related videos
@Milesb69 Exactly. While I hate the ACC (though I went to school there for both undergrad and grad degrees), the blood on Tyler Hansborough's face while playing Duke is a lasting image.
You have NO gangstas. You have college boys.

this is laghable and so embarassing especially for cincinatti cause they're all nobodys who think they are somebody :D XD :D
Adam Drake
The best Playa Cincinnati ever had was Oscar Robertson. In 2000 they had Kenyon Martin who was 1st overall pick by new Jersey nets
“Do minorities have a special obligation to conduct themselves professionally in public in order to combat stereotypes”?

They are all mad because they don't play for UK, lulz.
I'm on xavier Side 😂 💯
That is what the University gets, keeping recruiting! I am sure they all had 2.0 when they came out of highschool!
All the kids directly involved in that shit should have their scholarships removed, so they can realize that they literally made the biggest mistake of their lives...completely uncalled for
Completly unaware that the be a "gangsta" isnt what the game pf basketball is about, niether will it get you to the NBA any faster
UC coach said it best that these players really don't know how lucky they are to be going to college for free and playing a sport that they love.there are millions of high school athletes all across the country that would do damn near anything to be like these players and play college sports.its a shame to see these very fortunate athletes to do something so stupid and be a thug and fight the team they play.i say pull some scholarships and then these guys for UC can see how lucky they are
Tu Holloway & Marc Lyons was thugged out Lmaoo
I didn't know being a grown man is being a "gangster"..
@Lights0ut1109 you nailed it.
Hey Tu how's you're nba career going?
Same as yancy gates
Jake Shannon how's sk doing in the NBA?
None of these guys are in the nba
sinaloa saurez
But one did get dropped with a punch and stomped in the head on his own home court.
He's doing better than you cuz he's got a college degree.
Why gates sucker punch the weakest link when grease wasn’t even looking nor trying to fight? He was more so the mediator of the situation
This is seriously not that big of a deal, tensions get high and people fight in sports it happens every year
not in the fight they never, that's what really counts
@WillMorebucks That is a POOR argument, because fighting IS allowed in hockey, even though I believe it should be outlawed.
