I respect Mick Cronin an immense amount after watching that presser.
Me too

Lyons, #10, and Wells, #5, from Xavier also threw punches near the Cincy bench. They should be gone multiple games as well.
ESPN just showed some of their comments. Basically along the lines of "where we are from, you have to fight back when someone sticks their hand in your face". No remorse, no thought that maybe getting in a fight over a stupid game is a poor reflection on them as individuals or the team. Seemed as happy to win the fight as they were to win the game.A sportswriter said that two Xavier players were at the presser before Cronin and seemed to be very happy with what went on. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Um...did anyone see Tu Holloway's postgame comments? Dude literally said they have "gangstas" on their team. Then Mark Lyons basically said their team is from the streets and that's how they roll. Chris Mack and Xavier should be absolutely embarrassed.
The X players said that they would fight back when someone put "their hands on them" first, that they wouldn't back down and get their face punched in.
From the video, it looks as if Xavier started the fight when they pushed that Cincinnati player who was jawing with Holloway.

And they showed absolutely NO remorse in their post-game presser. None.
Wow -- Great Presser. Cincy should be proud to have him as a coach (judging from the presser, i know nothing about him other then just watching that)
True, but an idiotic decision by Mack to let them talk to the press. Almost anyone that soon after a fight would be riled up and talking like that.
Horrible decision. Cinci didn't make their players available, their coach said the right things, and they come out of this looking better than Xavier, who had their players sit there and say dumb stuff (and they even posted the video on their website!), and it didn't seem like Chris Mack was very apologetic either.
Pretty glad that we didn't play them this year
