Cincinnati Bearcats basketball prepares for month of exhibitions under Jerrod Calhoun as the regular season opens Oct. 2 at home against American.
Cincinnati Bearcats men's basketball coach Jerrod Calhoun has assembled a roster of 15 players for the upcoming season. Two players, MJ Collins from Utah State and Javontae Campbell from Bowling Green, are fifth-year options, but their eligibility is uncertain due to court challenges. Both players performed well in exhibition games, with Collins averaging 17.5 points per game for Utah State and Campbell scoring 18.7 points for Bowling Green.
Coach Calhoun invited Ohio State's coaching staff to scout UC in a unique arrangement, and the Bearcats plan to play Ohio State, Illinois, and Oakland University in exhibition games starting October 7. The team only has one returning player, walk-on Grant Darbyshire, while the rest are new. Calhoun emphasized the importance of getting additional reps and preparing for the challenging season ahead.
